There are currently no known plans for an official english translation. Masahiro sakurai talks about an experience many thought led to smash (it didn't) Maybe sakurai wants or request these things and since metroid is retro they don't do it

As mentioned before, nintendo tends to prioritize their own domestic market when it comes to what they push

That said, i'd be shocked if mp4 doesn't get at least one direct to itself Though given how it looks as though it swapped release dates with age of imprisonment, prime 4 may be coming in a bit hot & could need more time to get footage for. To be honest, it's a bit of a long shot I think we have come to a situation where it is not sustainable to try to produce games on the large scale that we currently do, because it is too much work
I feel that we cannot continue like this, but the only effective breakthrough i can think of at this point is generative ai. Kirby air riders fans are now scrambling for hidden lores hidden by masahiro sakurai for over 20 years delete12345 aug 20, 2025 nintendo discussion gaming forum
