Outside of the guides, Recon is home to a large amount of multimedia.[1] It has numerous screenshots and artwork from each game as well as music tracks. Scanned versions of the games' manuals can also be found on Recon. Metroid Recon has a large amount of fan made content including fan fiction, fan art, and wall papers.[1]
