Retro Studios has been working on Metroid Prime 4 for several years now, and the fruits of their labor may be arriving sooner than expected. A few weeks ago we heard that journalist Jeff Grubb said that he had heard from one of his sources that the latest game in the Metroid Prime series was planned for launch this year.
