Hi. My name is Milton. I live in Argentina, where I work as a sound technician in my own recording studio. This is a project I've been working on for over two years, and now I feel it can be finished, so I decided to make it public.
This is my own remake of Metroid 2, one of the most important chapters of the Metroid saga. I always wanted to play the game with the graphics and physics of Metroid Zero Mission. So, I decided my next game would be a remake.
During the next weeks, I'll share with you the progress so far. I'll post screens from the very beginning of the project, until its present state. I also documented some of the most important aspects of the game design.
Gameplay footage of varying quality (framerate is total shit in parts of these videos - game is really running well):
Basically I want to give this Milton fellow a hug really, really bad right about now.
This is pretty much the greatest news of all time if you're me.

This is totally freaking awesome. This guy is a hero to take that much time from his life to create this for the fans.

And Metroid 2 was definitely my first full-on Metroid experience - definitely the game that got me to fall in love with the series.
Having it redone in the vein of Super Metroid (the greatest game of all time, btw) makes me wet.

Whoa, awesome.
I never played this one (Super Metroid really was my introduction to my Metroid obsession)... this definitely piques my interest.
Looks good, I was hoping for a Nintendo remake of this game, but considering they've abandoned real gamers in favor of WiiMusic type shenanigans, looks like I'll have to rely on this. Never beat the original, it's the only 2D Metroid (I don't like the 3D ones) that I haven't.

Interesting, I'll have a look at it later.. as some of the others here, the "gameboy metroid" was my first induction to the metroid universe.
