Metroid gets some form of anniversary loving from Nintendo.

In a few weeks the Metroid franchise will turn 25 years old, although its anniversary seems to be getting forgotten about in favour of Zelda. There is some love for Samus Aran however as Nintendo UK has launched a hub site to provide you with information about Metroid games past and present.

The hub links you to sites for each of the Metroid games, with a few videos and images for each. The content is hardly going to blow you away but its good to see some love for the franchise. For anyone looking to celebrate the anniversary check out Shinesparkers who have a number of ideas lined up.
