Gaming researcher Liam Robertson lent credibility to some of these reports in a 2015 video as he stated that the game floated around in Nintendo in 2005 just through ideas and documents no actual production had been done. RELATED: Metroid Dread Announced, Out Later This Year Craig Harris, the former IGN staffer who was behind these claims, still stands by seeing it as he recently tweeted how this was in Nintendo’s back pocket for a “VERY” long time and that he first saw the game at E3 2005 ( but not much of it). IGN then allegedly backed up Game Informer, but those articles are incredibly difficult to dig up and see now after being buried for 16 years. Moderators of the now-defunct GI forums allegedly said it was a side-scrolling sequel to Metroid Fusion coming to the DS, but not only is that all but impossible to find now, it’s not clear if they were just echoing or building off what was already stated in the magazine. The magazine (pictured above) listed the game as a “2D Metroid adventure” coming to the DS as a part of Nintendo’s 2006 lineup. Metroid Dread‘s first public “reveal” dates back to the June 2005 issue of Game Informer. Metroid Dread was originally concepted over 16 years ago and went through years and years of rumors and hardship before finally being one of the best parts of E3 2021. But that’s just a small baby Metroid-sized development hell compared to the Mother Brain-sized development hell that Metroid Dread was stuck in. After a long period of silence, Nintendo came out in early 2019 to say it had restarted development on the title. Metroid Prime 4 has been in some sort of development hell since its announcement in 2017.
