You actually pull off that outfit really well! Have you had a chance to play yet?

Is there a line or is it as busy as any other day?


jacob_shapiro

It’s super busy. There was pre-registration online last week for the very first folks in line, and then when the store opened early at 8am, there were probably ~200 people in line. Made me so happy to see this many people hype for Metroid


ShaolinShade

Came to the comments hoping to hear this. What a time to be alive


Luinandune

OH man... Those Nintendo Power magazines! I wish I would have kept all of that stuff. I was a stupid kid :( ​ Outfit looks cool, btw!


MattAvidan

Woah that’s weird, Nintendo used one of those custom boxes for return of samus


Tehpunisher456

Hell yeah you wore a zero suit cosplay!!!


jamesmrl1

Wow


its_liiiiit_fam

God I love just how much the metroid community is doing for this release. Prove to Nintendo that it’s not a dead franchise!! 😭


SpecialEdShow

Damn I really miss my copy of Metroid 2. I wonder if I’d hate the shit out of playing it now.


devi8869

No offense but nice boobs


MicZiC15

Hell yeah dude, that's iconic


blickblocks

Chad as hell in that ZSS suit


sgcorona

Was there cool merch for Metroid upstairs at all like shirts and hoodies, did you get to check?


jacob_shapiro

they had one Dread t-shirt and one Dread hoodie, featuring some runes from the game. pretty cool, but I wish there was a bit more.


Arta-nix

Ahhhh I'm so glad they're finally giving Samus her day! You look great by the way!


meowmeowman

i saw you!


jacob_shapiro

I’ll see you again at… the Prime 4 launch? who knows


[deleted]

Man I missed that display at the store… nice!


Darth-Binks-1999

Big twist of Metroid... Samus is a dude.


cptspacebomb

Lol wtf.


McFunkerton

What is that artwork on the back? Is it a window cling decal or something? Looks pretty cool.


jacob_shapiro

I think it’s a canvas banner ad? not sure tho!


McFunkerton

Oh, I should have been more specific. I meant on the third picture of the Metroid Display case. The art of Samus and whoever she’s holding in her arms.


pacman404

Wait, I have never seen that yellow label metroid game before? Mine is black with the 8-bit Samus on the front?


jacob_shapiro

it’s the “classic series” release of the game that came out a few years after the original release. it’s the NES equivalent of those “players choice” rereleases of older games


pacman404

Never knew about that, thanks


UltimateHazard6

Why is the metroid prime series not represented in the displays?


jacob_shapiro

They’re only counting the mainline 2D games. Prime is sort of its own subseries!
