Project AM2R - Another Metroid 2 Remake

First of all, I want to thank all the great people of NCFC . AM2R won the "2nd Place Best of Show" and "Best of Metroid" awards. It was an awesome event, and I´m already looking forward to the next one. Since NCFC is over, here´s the exclusive material: First, the meet Omega Metroid ...

Have fun! http://www.nintendocfc.com/

You know, watching or hearing what you did yesterday and making it better, just to do the same the next day? Now, coming up is the camera work.
