Man, Nintendo really knows how to mix nostalgia with fresh ideas—a Pac-Man Metroidvania and Raidou remaster in the same show That's the kind of lineup that makes me glad I own a Switch. Also, Metroid Prime 4 finally getting a release window after all these years My hype levels are officially critical.
