Be nice if they'd one day license that Metroid manga, but eh, guess they'll wait till Nintendo makes a new game....

It's probably too late to release that here. American Metroid fans would tear it apart like they did Other M. It would have had to be released back when it was made before those fans here made up their own idea of who Samus was as a character.

A surprising number of video game manga goes unlicensed, like the Mario-kun series. Whether its fear of cultural difference or licensing issues, I don't know.
