New Video and LOL

Posted by MetroidMaster1914 | 06-20-10 03:29 PM CST

MetroidMaster1914 Hard work is going into the Anniversary preparations, but in the mean time we've uploaded this old Super Metroid Commercial, just because I recently rediscovered it and realized that (to the extent of my knowledge) the actress who plays Samus in the is commercial is the only one to legitimately play her other than voice acting...and we have no idea who she is.


(360p)

I also quite recently came across a quite fake and hilarious rumor pertaining to the probably-will-never-happen Metroid Movie. According to the rumor, Jessica Simpson was attached to play Samus Aran in a movie directed by Uwe Boll. The rumor goes (quoting word for word):

Actress Jessica Simpson is rumored to have secured the role of Space Bounty Hunter Samus Aran in a Hollywood version of a Nintendo game. In the game, Metroid, the hero controls Samus on her goal to rid the world of energy sucking beasts called Metroids. Think of it as a cross between Aliens and Dracula.

Simpson is excited to restart her movie career and is reportedly taking part in the selection of Samus' love interest. Simpson's publicists has also confirmed that she will be contributing to the plot. "Ms Simpson feels the plot is too complex and would like to move the plot closer to it's core story of love and adventure.

The movie, rumored to be directed by famed director Uwe Boll will feature a wise cracking ethnic Metroid played by the fat kid from good burger.

That's all for right now, be sure to stay tuned for further Metroid info!

More than just Japanese commercials. I know for a fact that Fusion or Zero Mission had an English commercial with one as well. Was annoying seeing over and over and over hearing a pot or something crashing to the ground after she does a spin jump.

Soo...slight correction. Turns out that the woman in this commercial is NOT the only actress to physically play Samus, as there have been many other Japanese Metroid game commercials which have different actresses depicting Samus. That's a total my bad.
