    Wow, missed that Metroid Prime 4 had gotten a name. Is there an actual release date? I have had this on order from Amazon since 2019, each year it has shifted to Dec 31st of the year.

      For now they’ve only said “2025”. Some folks are assuming it’ll be a launch title for the Switch successor as well, like with Breath of the Wild on Wii U/Switch. Apparently we might be getting re-releases for 2 and 3 on the Switch before then, but it’s all speculation so far.

        My guess is Switch 2 shares enough architecture with OG Switch that games for one run on the other. This is why Nintendo has been going after Switch emulators - they’re already better than Switch 2 at being Switch 2.

      We will be one of the few who get to buy it at 60 bucks. Next time it’s available to pre-order on Amazon, it’ll be $70.

          It don’t get charged until it ships. I had the same situation with Tears of the Kingdom.
