Why It Can Save The Switch: Because Metroid fans are about 7 years overdue a fourth Prime game, as since the release of 2007's Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, it's been nothing but a mediocre spin-off (Other M) and a crappy handheld title nobody asked for (Federation Force).

Fans are continually infuriated about Nintendo's refusal to just announce the damn thing, considering how many want it.

How Likely Is It?: Here's the problem: Other M and Federation Force both sold horribly, so Nintendo may not feel compelled to make another entry, not even if it went back to the acclaimed, financially successful formula of Corruption.

Don't count it out yet, but at the same time, if you keep expecting it to be announced at the next Nintendo Direct, you're probably going to be continually disappointed. 5/10
