The end of an era
A few days ago, Nintendo closed this month of video game announcements with a Direct full of good surprises. The giant revealed to us, among other things, several new Mario games, an HD-2D remake of Dragon Quest III, but also shared the first images of the return of Samus Aran with Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, a software particularly awaited by fans. And upon seeing these images, the community understood that they were seeing one of the last titles planned for Nintendo Switch.
Released more than seven years ago, the Switch should give us one last year of service before Nintendo releases a new machine. A bittersweet observation for players who therefore greeted the hybrid console in their own way with several posts shared on social networks shortly after the broadcast of this Direct.
The last dance
Players have been expecting to discover the next generation of Nintendo consoles for some time now, while the Japanese giant is still holding off on revealing its future machine to us. In the absence of precision, Metroid Prime 4 therefore remains the ultimate software expected on Switch and should take full advantage of the resources of the hybrid console which has often had difficulty running at full speed. But in the same way that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild was the link between the Wii U and the Switch, Metroid Prime 4 could also see a simultaneous release on Switch and the new Nintendo console. Regardless, we now have to get used to the idea that the Switch is about to say goodbye for good after giving us some of the most memorable video game experiences of recent years.
