If you are a fan of the Metroid franchise then you will be pleased to learn that Metroid: Zero Mission will be arriving on the North American Wii U Virtual Console tomorrow. The critically acclaimed Game Boy Advance title will set you back $7.99. The full list of Nintendo downloads for North America will be published tomorrow!
Space bounty hunter Samus Aran is sent on a lone mission to infiltrate the fortified planet of Zebes. Traverse through the mazelike base of operations for the Space Pirates, gaining access to powerful upgrades and items for your weapons and suit. Locate Mother Brain, and put a stop to the replication of Metroids!
Thanks, Darren K
Finally!!

Seriously, dude. Fix your circuits. Even your videos’ titles got typos!
>>>I’ts not my video though>>>
>>>*It’s>>>
>>>Since the empire is transforming right now the glitches are inevitable>>>
Yes…Good.
Oh my freaking goodness!! I’ve been waiting years for this! Dang, I wonder what took them so long. Everyone else in the world has had this wonderful little game for over a year now.
There’s our anniversary game <3
Aww… That kinda stings…
I’ve actually been powering through Super Metroid on my Wii U, and was contemplating purchasing an overpriced copy of this game on eBay.
But for $8, I can have it here and now.
My favorite game of all time, probably. Buy it, you fuckers.
Finally! Of course, they would release it when I’m taking a break from my Wii U right now, though! Well least it’ll be there waiting for me for when I do get back into my Wii U.
As a side note, maybe this a first step in making amends with the Metroid fanbase after the E3 fiasco. If anything, the petition proves there’s a very loyal (and rabid) fanbase waiting for more of this. I’m sure many people will download Zero Mission, hopefully Nintendo will get the message.
I use that same logic with the MOTHER games- if enough people in NA download Earthbound/EB Beginnings, maybe it’ll finally click in their skulls to get MOTHER 3 over here.
That’s a much more obvious case, they’re obviously throwing the fanbase a bone with that. It’s a good way to see if there’s real interest (meaning, people willing to spend some money) in the franchise.
Good old times. This remembers me of the day and age that gaming used to be challenging. Brief tutorials, almost no mid-level checkpoints, limited number of lives and continues, so on, so forth.
*sighs*
Too bad I gave up Wii U after E3. Now they decide to port this game when it could’ve been done in 2014? …..X(
This game is much easier compared to the original. Metroid NES is hard for no reason smh.
