Not long ago, ‘Super Smash Bros’<\/a> was the ultimate crossover. They were all there, from Pac-man to Cloud, including Kirby, Super Mario, and Solid Snake. But in the last seven years, ‘Fortnite’ was born, the ultimate game that allows the inclusion of any franchise in its gameplay system, from ‘Ghostbusters’ to ‘Friday the 13th’. And then… Why hasn’t Nintendo wanted to be part of the party?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

Samus Aran enters the game!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Today we have learned that Epic and Nintendo were talking very seriously about adding a Samus Aran skin, protagonist of Metroid<\/a>, to ‘Fortnite’. And after its very predictable success, they will start looking at how to get character by character. But it is known that the Japanese company is not a friend of giving away its characters after the damage<\/strong> that occurred in the NES and SNES era, so they put a simple condition. Lioness, yes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The good news is that they didn’t completely rule out their characters appearing in Fortnite<\/a>. The bad news is that they demanded that they only appear in the Switch versions and future consoles. And of course, after discussing it a bit, they came to the conclusion that they couldn’t give in and make different versions of the Battle Royale for each platform, because the whole point is for everyone to have the same experience. So for now, Metroid has closed the doors to Fortnite<\/strong>. But who knows. It’s only for now…<\/p>\n\n\n
