Can Cool Remakes Bring Back Space Hero Samus Aran?

Suit up, space explorers! Why this legendary sci-fi shooter series needs a total high-tech makeover.

Imagine blasting off to uncharted alien worlds inside power armor with an arm-cannon. That is the world of Metroid Prime, starring galaxy-trotting bounty hunter Samus Aran! When the original 3D game launched decades ago, it blew everyone away with creepy space caverns, spooky alien lore, and high-tech visor scanning.

Over the years, newer space adventures zoomed past, while Samus's big adventures slowed down. Gamers are asking: how can Nintendo make Metroid feel fresh and modern again? The secret might come from other classic games like Resident Evil, which rebuilt their spooky old adventures from the ground up with stunning graphics and super-smooth controls.
