The highly anticipated video game Metroid Prime 4: Beyond has captured the attention of fans, who have waited nearly two decades for its arrival. Recently, Nintendo released a new trailer that promises to showcase the most beloved elements of the Metroid series, including the iconic exploration, new environments, enemies, and the abilities of the protagonist, Samus Aran.
A game that promises to be a console seller
Unlike the early previews, which raised doubts about the direction of the game by focusing on open gameplay and a basic narrative, the current trailer manages to capture the essence that has defined the franchise. In this new video, fans can see Samus facing imposing fortresses, exploring vast worlds and underground catacombs. Additionally, powers that allow access to new locations are highlighted, all wrapped in an aura of mystery and exciting adventures.
One of the aspects that was prominently showcased was the scanning mechanics in the midst of combat, a classic element that many fans will remember with nostalgia. However, the initial previews had caused some concern, especially due to an excessive emphasis on a motorcycle in an environment that seemed open, which many considered a departure from the traditional foundations of the game. The new trailer not only corrects this impression but also presents Samus’s vehicle in a striking manner, even incorporating a style reminiscent of the famous film Akira, revitalizing audience expectations.
Despite the optimism generated by this latest trailer, there is still uncertainty about whether Metroid Prime 4 will be able to meet the extremely high expectations built up over two decades. Fans of the series are eager to know if Nintendo and Retro Studios will finally deliver a title that lives up to its legacy.
Nintendo continues to reaffirm its commitment to physical format in the next generation of consoles, evidenced by the physical editions of its new console, the Switch 2. Despite the growth of the digital market and the priority the company has given to its eShop, the most anticipated releases, such as those of the Zelda and Metroid titles, will have cartridge versions. These editions will include the original cartridge along with a download code that will allow access to an update that requires an Internet connection.

Nintendo continues to reaffirm its commitment to physical media in the next generation of consoles, evidenced by the physical editions of its new console, the Switch 2. Despite the growth of the digital market and the priority that the company has given to its eShop, the most anticipated releases, such as those of the Zelda and Metroid titles, will have cartridge versions. These editions will include the original cartridge along with a download code that will allow access to an update that requires an Internet connection.
Prices that have not dazzled the public
This strategy has generated mixed reactions among the gaming community, especially due to the prices that accompany these versions. The physical titles for Switch 2, such as Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, are available for pre-order at a cost of 79.99 euros in stores in Spain, which represents a notable increase compared to previous releases. Additionally, the Switch 2 console is priced at 470 euros, which, although it has sparked controversy, is considered more accessible compared to previous Nintendo systems.
However, it is important to note that the responses from Nintendo’s support teams do not always provide definitive information, which can lead to confusion among consumers. According to sources from VGC, clarifications regarding features and prices may vary, and what is certain today may change in the future. Although details have been confirmed about the need to download updates to improve games, it would not be surprising if the company reveals more information or adjusts its policies later on.
As the launch of the Switch 2 approaches, video game fans eagerly anticipate the evolution that this new console will bring, especially with titles like Metroid Prime 4: Beyond and Kirby and the Forgotten Land, which promise to offer a significant leap in the gaming experience.
The arrival of the New Nintendo Switch 2 is generating high expectations among players, thanks to its focus on backward compatibility and significant improvements for existing titles. This new device will not only allow users to enjoy games from the previous console, but it will also feature enhanced versions that will be available as Switch 2 Edition. These improvements are not free; players will have the option to upgrade them for an additional cost, although some titles will receive optimizations for free.

This new device will not only allow users to enjoy games from the previous console, but it will also feature enhanced versions that will be available as Switch 2 Edition. These improvements are not free; players will have the option to upgrade them for an additional cost, although some titles will receive optimizations for free.
Your Nintendo Switch games will run better on Nintendo Switch 2
One of the standout features of the Switch 2 is its Internet connectivity capability, which will enable the downloading of updates that can enhance overall performance and provide support for features like GameShare in certain games. However, it is important to note that performance improvements will primarily focus on areas such as loading times and overall stability, without directly impacting frame rates or graphical resolution, at least initially.
Among the games that will benefit from these free updates, an initial list is expected to cover various titles that are making their return on the new console. Meanwhile, titles like Metroid Prime 4: Beyond will receive special attention, with promised enhancements that will allow for a gaming experience at 4K/60 FPS or 1440p/120 FPS, demonstrating Nintendo’s commitment to elevating the visual and performance experience of its most anticipated games.
With the opportunity to acquire these enhanced titles, as well as new bundles through the MyNintendoStore platform, it has become clear that Nintendo aims not only to attract new players but also to provide additional value to its loyal fans of its extensive game library. However, fans are still wondering how these enhancements will specifically be implemented, leaving an air of anticipation about the future of the Nintendo Switch 2.
Today has been what points to being the last Nintendo Direct for the original Nintendo Switch. The Nintendo Switch 2 will still have to wait a week to receive its first one, and its successor is reluctant to die. Which doesn’t surprise us. With over 150 million units sold, Nintendo would be foolish to let it go. That’s why they have announced many interesting games for their console. And we are going to tell you everything that has been announced and why you should pay attention. Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Probably the announcement I was waiting for […]
Today has been what seems to be the last Nintendo Direct for the original Nintendo Switch. The Nintendo Switch 2 will still have to wait a week to receive its first, and its successor refuses to die. Which doesn’t surprise us. With over 150 million units sold, it would be foolish for Nintendo to let it go. That’s why they have announced many interesting games for their console. And we are going to tell you everything that has been announced and why you should pay attention.
Probably the announcement that everyone was waiting for and that has finally arrived. After the excellent Dragon Quest III HD-2D they have announced that the next two installments of this trilogy will arrive this year to close the story. We knew they existed, we knew they would follow the same aesthetic, but we didn’t know when they would be released. And although we will still have to wait for a specific date, at least we know one thing: they will be released in 2025 and for Switch.
No Sleep for Kaname Date: AI Somnium Files
Kaname Date returns in a new detective adventure that will lead him to rescue an Internet idol. Diving into the psyche of suspects and involved individuals alike, this is the third part of AI Somnium Files, an excellent series of graphic adventure/visual novels that have taken the detective story fans by storm. And not without reason, as they feature tremendously charismatic characters, fascinating mechanics, and stories filled with unexpected twists. Something that seems to continue here.
Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army
After the success of the Persona franchise, it is no surprise that Atlus is bringing back its old spinoffs from Shin Megami Tensei. In this case, it is Raidou Kuzunoha, who in this remaster of The Mystery of the Soulless Army invites us to fight fire with fire by embodying a demon hunter from the early 20th century who battles these vile creatures by recruiting other demons willing to help him. An excellent game, previously locked to the PlayStation 2, that you shouldn’t miss if you enjoy Shin Megami Tensei or Persona.
Shadow Labyrinth
This peculiar reimagining of Pac-Man, now in the form of a metroidvania where we have to escape from a dying planet, we already knew about, but until now we didn’t have a release date. Now we know it comes out on July 18 and we can’t wait to see what else this peculiar thing has to offer.
Patapon 1+2 REPLAY
Perhaps there are no more unique rhythm games than Patapon. And now we can replay them in this remaster that, in addition to allowing us to play on a big screen, will also include numerous quality of life improvements, specially designed for those who have already played it. A perfect opportunity to replay them on July 11, but also to discover a franchise unjustly forgotten by Sony. Although not by its creators.
Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar
Remake of the Nintendo DS game, Story of Seasons is the good Harvest Moon. That means this is one of those titles you should keep in mind if you like farming games. And that you shouldn’t let it pass under your radar.
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond
The previous trailer for Metroid Prime 4: Beyond did not leave us very satisfied. It had too much action and didn’t seem very Metroid Prime, which was disappointing. Now, this trailer does give us exactly what we want: a Metroid Prime like the first three, but with a completely different touch. One of the great games from the Direct that we hope to sample very soon, but it only has a generic 2025 release date.
Witchbrook
If you like Stardew Valley, but have always thought it would be even better if instead of a farm you had to live in a wizard school like Hogwarts, then Witchbrook is for you. With cooperative play for up to four people, it has the potential to be one of the big releases of this year. And you won’t need to switch to Nintendo Switch 2 to enjoy it.
The Eternal Life of Goldman
With excellent animation reminiscent of classic Disney’s Fantasia, The Eternal Life of Goldman is a beautiful game that has caught attention precisely for that. The care put into its art. And what about gameplay? It seems to be a very appealing old-school platformer that will deserve attention.
Gradius Origins
Gradius is one of the great franchises of the shoot ’em up genre, and now we can enjoy it again on our Switch, with an excellent collection of classic games, as well as a new installment. But to enjoy them, we will have to wait until next August 7.
Rift of the Necrodancer
Although it has gone somewhat unnoticed, Rift of the Necrodancer is one of the best games of 2025. It is an excellent rhythm game that you should have already played on PC and, if you haven’t, you can now enjoy it on Switch. When? Today! And don’t miss it, because truly: it is one of the best games that have been released this year.
Tamagotchi Plaza
One of those games that may not be very flashy, but surprisingly works well among a certain audience. And it seems that this Tamagotchi Plaza wants to take the place left by Animal Crossing on June 27 with all its sweetness.
Pokémon Legends Z-A
Pokémon Legends Z-A is one of the most anticipated games from Nintendo, and although we were expecting a release date, it seems we will have to wait a bit longer. With a generic late 2025 timeframe, we have been given a bit more information. We now know that battles against trainers will be based on a tournament called Z-A Games, which is defined by trainer ranks starting from Z and must be ascended to A. This is something we are eager to learn more about.
Rhythm Paradise: Groove
Rythm Paradise is among the best rhythm games in history, and we haven’t had a new one since its last release on 3DS. But that will change soon. In 2026, with no specific date yet, Rythm Paradise: Groove will be released, a new installment of this excellent series of rhythm games that are as simple as they are charming that we only hope will once again feature a hilariously uncoordinated choir of children.
SaGa Frontier Remastered 2
The SaGa franchise was the great forgotten one by Square Enix for years, but it seems that it is now one of their favorite children after the success of its remasters, remakes, and new installments. That’s why it doesn’t surprise us that they bring SaGa Frontier 2 Remastered, a classic perhaps less remembered than its predecessor, but equally exceptional and that you shouldn’t miss if you are a fan of JRPGs. And it is available today.
Monument Valley 1, 2 and 3
Monument Valley is among the best mobile games of all time and is now coming to Nintendo Switch. Or it will very soon. Because the first two will be released on April 15, while we will have to wait until an indefinite date next summer to enjoy Monument Valley III. A perfect opportunity to enjoy some unique games.
Everybody’s Golf: Hot Shots
The most fun golf game saga in the world is back, now for Nintendo Switch. Although it has historically been a Sony franchise, it now comes from Bandai Namco, but it seems to still have the same craziness and fun as always, so give this historic franchise a chance when it releases on Switch next summer.
Marvel: Cosmic Invasions
Dotemu has specialized in making pixel art beat’em’ups and the license they have chosen for their next game couldn’t please us more. Marvel Cosmic Invasion puts superheroes from the Marvel universe to stop a cosmic invasion in the only way they know: by throwing punches. Moreover, with so many X-Men appearing, we can’t say no to this game.
Tomadachi Life: A Dream Life
To conclude, a bombshell that may not seem like one to many. Tomodachi Life is a hit in Japan and also a hit in the West, even though it is not one of the big well-known names from Nintendo. And this Tomodachi Life: A Dream Life is one of the noblest ways to end the life of such a popular console as the Nintendo Switch: appealing to the general public with a game designed for them. And for that reason, Nintendo, you have sold over 150 million consoles.
The Nintendo Switch 2 is expected to launch in June of this year, according to recent reports detailing a three-phase release plan. The first phase will begin with the launch of the console, accompanied by several first-party Nintendo games, including a new Mario Kart title that was shown during a reveal trailer.

Additionally, it is anticipated that more development kits will be distributed to developers in June, although some already have access to them.
A second and a third phase focused on third-party games
The analysis suggests that the second phase of the launch, scheduled for between October and November, will focus on the release of more third-party games. The third and final phase will take place during the holiday season, although details about specific releases have not yet been disclosed.
The Nintendo Switch 2 Direct is scheduled for April 2, and additional information about other titles and features is expected to be presented. Additionally, it has been reported that there will be another Nintendo Direct focused on the original Nintendo Switch this same week, which could include previews of anticipated titles like Metroid Prime 4: Beyond.
On the other hand, the release of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition has been recently mentioned, which includes a hidden 60 FPS mode. This fact may suggest that the new console will have advanced graphical features that will allow for a better gaming experience. With the imminent launch of the Switch 2, the gaming community is eager at the possibility of rediscovering their favorite titles with significant performance improvements.
