Metroid II: Return of Samus – Cane and Rinse No.490

“So the Galactic Federation called it’s members to an urgent conference to find a way to overcome this menace. They quickly came to one conclusion, which was unanimous and simple…give Samus Aran the order to exterminate the Metroids!” Five years after the release of Metroid, Gunpei Yakoi and the team at Nintendo R&D1 sought to utilise the then new Gameboy platform to bring the graphics and explorative gameplay from the original NES title to the new handheld device. Join Rich, Leah and returning contributor Johannes Nichell as they discuss Samus’s second mission, the eradication of the Metroid life forms and the Legacy of Metroid II: Return of Samus. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_490.mp3   Music featured in this issue:1.
