Happy 70th Birthday to Michael Keaton.

Quack Pack Intro & Outro

Happy 25th Anniversary to the Disney Afternoon cartoon Quack Pack.

 You know what's genius? The game show Supermarket Sweep. Think about it. Who'd a thought turning one of the most boring things in the world: food shopping and make it fun entertainment by having contestants running around like maniacs across a super market filling carts? They not only make food shopping fun but they made WATCHING others food shop fun.

 Sad to hear about the passing of Ed Asner. Obviously, he'll forever be known as Lou Grant on The Mary Tyler Moore Show and Lou Grant as well as the movie Up but I know him best for his voice acting in the 90s including Hudson on Disney's Gargoyles and J. Jonah Jameson on FOX Kids' Spider-Man cartoon a.k.a. Spider-Man: The Animated Series.

 Happy 20th Anniversary to the Devil May Cry franchise.

For decades, Nintendo has consistently been one of the superpowers in the video game world and as such has not only created classic consoles and games but also, franchises. After scoring hits with Donkey Kong, Mario, and The Legend of Zelda, Nintendo would continue their hot streak when they would follow those up with the action adventure game Metroid. Originally released in 1986, the series follows the adventures of bounty hunter Samus Aran, who was not only one of the most popular characters of all time but groundbreaking becoming one of the first prominent female heroes in video game history. The success of Metroid would spawn a franchise, including the sequel: Metroid II: Return of Samus in 1991. With Metroid having just celebrated it's 35th Anniversary in August and with Metroid II set to celebrate it's 30th Anniversary in November, I figure I do a two for the price of one and look back at the first two games of Metroid. This article does contain spoilers.

 Off by three days but Happy 70th Birthday to Queen bassist John Deacon.
