MDb news since 1996.
Greetings one and all, I am Apothem, long time forumite and newest contributor to the Metroid Database staff. A lifelong Metroid - and general Nintendo - fan, I've been perusing the MDb and engaging with it's modest but exemplary community for over six years. I first wondered here back in June 2008, interested in little more than trading friend codes for credits in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. Since then I've gradually grown increasingly involved with the forums, and am now one of the most regularly active members on the site. I've been playing Metroid titles for as long as I could hold a controller, from the first on the NES to the latest on the Wii, and am more than excited to be bringing my passion for the series and signature verbosity to bear here on the front page of the world's premier Metroid fansite!
I will endeavor, along with the rest of our fine staff, to bring you all - my fellow fans - the very best from around the web. Official Metroid news may be slim, but that hasn't stopped the awesome fandom surrounding one of - if not the - best videogame series of all time from cranking out excellent content to tide us all over until the inevitable - and hopefully imminent - announcement of a new Metroid game, much of which is available right here in the MDb's "Fan Creations" section, conveniently located to your browsing left.
For now, make sure to join us in our continuing celebration of Metroid Prime 2: Echoes 10th anniversary by reading the recently completed - against all discernible odds - Episode of Aether manga, tracked down and translated by our resident linguistical wizard CapCom; and also be sure to check out our excellent and recently expanded Bestiary, courtesy local artistic aficionado Infinity's End and the myriad of impressively imaginative creature-smiths he's wrangled from every conceivable corner of the web.
If after all that you've still time to spare, come join me and our awesome community on our ever active forums and help us discuss all things Metroid, Nintendo, videogames in general, and everything in between and beyond!
Until next time,
GEOMETRY!
