A slight update to the first draft. I would appreciate it if you guys could proof-read it before I officially publish it, looking for accuracy about the NES APU and whether composers find it complete and understandable.

There is also a patch for romhackers to make Metroid use a table of timbre values for tracks rather than hard-code them in an obnoxious way:

5/31: Updated to v0.3 (release candidate). Changes can be found here (in hindsight I shouldn't have committed the Metroid and Mother updates together).
