Gamespot Interview with Yoshio Sakamoto

• by

Sakamoto talks about Dread with Gamespot’s He goes into deep analysis of the game and its development history, gives a nod to the fans, and talks about the game’s narrative. Definitely worth a read, might be one of the best interviews I’ve read with Sakamoto-san. Unfortunately the interview seems to end abruptly with no “closing statement” or “finishing question” but otherwise, it’s definitely worth a read.

Unlockable Dread Gallery Time Requirements

• by

Beating Dread in a certain amount of time will allow you to unlock artwork in your gallery. The artwork goes through the entire series. Here’s how to unlock them:

  • Metroid Zero Mission: Normal mode, 8+ Hours
  • Metroid Samus Returns: Normal mode, 4 – 8 Hours
  • Super Metroid: Normal mode, < 4 Hours
  • Metroid Other M: Hard mode, 8+ Hours
  • Metroid Fusion: Hard mode, 4 – 8 Hours
  • Metroid Dread: Hard mode, < 4 Hours

If you beat it under a certain time you will get all the other ones above that time. For example, if I played the game on normal and beat it in under 8 hours, I’d unlock both the Samus Returns image and the Zero Mission image. They are game mode specific though.

Acquiring 100% of the items will unlock all of the images in the Chozo Archives gallery.

 

After unlocking all of the images, you will unlock a final “completion” image which shows a large selection of all the characters from the series (non-Prime) history. There are two of these, one has suited Samus and one has Zero Suit Samus.

 

Of course we’ll host these images on the site once we can get clean, high-res, watermark-free copies. Stay tuned.

The unlockable galleries have been uploaded to our Dread Page. View them here. Warning these are HUGE spoilers so click only if you don’t want to earn them yourself!

 

In other news, the Dread Special Edition artbook will eventually be scanned and made available on our site. We’ll let you know when that happens.

Dread Holographic Poster Set on My Nintendo

• by

Nintendo has made available the 11.75″ x 18″ Holographic Poster Set on the My Nintendo website. It’s 1000 points to redeem. I had to do some research and find all their ad websites and do their clicky, find-a-thing games in order to collect some points to get to 1000, but I was able to secure one. Be aware: you have to pay $7 for shipping.

 

Anyway, GO GO GO!!! https://my.nintendo.com/rewards/61b13a290e71d2d5

Metroid Dread IST – Remix album

• by

IST: “Inspired Sound Track”

If lo-fi music isn’t your thing, check out this incredible 7-track remix album by Jeff Siegert. He seems to have produced and published the whole thing himself. I can’t get over the production values in these tracks. Epic doesn’t even begin to describe it. Definitely give it a listen.

Did You Know Gaming? Feature on Zebes Invasion Order

• by

Know about Zebes Invasion Order but don’t want to play through the whole thing? DYKG? just released a big feature on the very obscure, Japanese-only, choose-your-own-adventure style game book. The team reached out to former staff member Devin (aka CapCom) who translated the whole thing and turned it into a playable game which we’ve had on our site since 2018.

 

Check it out below:

Twinetroid can be played here.
