"We have expectations regarding the release date."
At the present, Metabroid Prime 4 is a huge mystery.Studios often reveal whose developer is managing a game when they introduce it on stage at a tradeshow, or at the absolute least, they do so via a press statement issued after the fact. This isn't the case with
Metroid Prime 4, since Bill Trinen refers to the development crew as "talented" and "new." To put it succinctly, we just know that it's not Retro Studios. Thus, this is what we now know in total: It's a
Metroid game that Retro Studios isn't managing; it was revealed at E3 2017. We may now include hazy timeline information in that calculation.Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aimé told Mashable that they already have "expectations" for the release date of
Metroid Prime 4 . He said that the game is "well into development," which allows him to make that claim.
Alright, what say you? That's fantastic, however. For the sake of quality, it can take years to arrive and experience that "Nintendo" wait, but at least there is work being done.According to Reggie, "it depends on the game" and "how we feel the consumer is going to respond to the message" about announcements in general. Hehe! That nearly seems like a direct allusion to
Diablo Immortal, but Nintendo is used to responses along the lines of
Metroid Prime: Federation Force. After years of longing, the moment has come for a wide announcement that a mainline
Metroid was on the way.In "Super Smash Bros. Ultimate," Reggie Fils-Aimé plays as Ridley [Mashable].
