Artist's commentary
Metroid
A days ago me and my brother was triying to remember the games that impress us back in the nes/snes days. We love the original metroid for NES, the gameboy ones and of course the prime saga and other M, but, dang! we cant forget that time we was kids traveling across the country in a vacations, really far from our city, and after after eat something we look for a place where spent the night, the hotel was terrorific!! like an slasher movie set or something like that. The good part? next to the hotel, a shop with a snes and Metroid. that first 5 minutes of gameplay was love at first sight :D (Big Grin)
that first battle with Ridley and the countdown is one of that moments that make me love even more the videogames :D (Big Grin)
