The community behind the metroid series has recently evolved to include fans taking the Metroid game to as whole new level. Game making programs have allowed people to take the Metroid engine and create their own adventure. The most popular platform is the Super Metroid engine, where people make an entire 2hour+ game experience totally different from the original. Talented programmers will alter the game code and physics, allowing for new abilities and dynamics. A popular download is Metroid Impossible, where unless you have an emulator and the best skills of the game, you will not make it.
The most recent big project in the making is a Metroid 2 remake by DoctorM64. He is taking the game which arguably was the worst in Metroid history, and giving it new life. Using the complicated Zero Mission engine, he is custom building the graphics and sprite, as well as abilities and physics. The entire game is being re-created from scratch yo enhance the image of the original title. It is a very promising project.
