Big Video Game Anniversaries in 2021
1986 was a big year for to-be-important video game releases. The first Metroid game was released in August that year in Japan for the NES. Who could forget the epic ending of Samus taking off her helmet and revealing her identity?
This series, which combined the popular platforming and adventure genres, would see over a dozen releases, from both 2D and 3D games to remakes and spin-offs.
We already know that Metroid Prime 4 is currently in development, but it seems like it may be a way off, so we probably shouldn’t expect it to release for the anniversary. I’d take the Prime trilogy for Switch to hold us off, though.
