Among the long-awaited Nintendo games, Metroid Prime 4 is certainly the one that arouses the most interest. The game was first announced at E3 2017 and managed to unleash the crowd that was impatient to see the next episode of Samus’ adventures soon. But nothing since then… The publisher hasn’t made an official announcement. Additionally, the Nintendo Switch is slowly reaching the end of its lifespan, so there isn’t much time left to release the game on that machine. It’s clear that Big N is no longer interested in releasing such important software on a console that has already made a name for itself. Fans’ hope now lies in the famous Nintendo Switch 2, and the latest news from the studios tends to go in that direction.
