Episode 290 – Discussing (and Clarifying) the Recent Metroid Prime 4 Info Dump

2025-10-29

For those who want an even more accurate assesment of what we discussed today, our friends at Shinesparkers released an article professionally translating the Nintendo Dream article from Japanese to English. This was released the day after we recorded, so it's not brought up in the episode. Most of what we discussed still stands, but there are a couple areas that their translation addresses which we did not accurately speculate on.

Last week, a new Metroid Prime 4: Beyond article published by Nintendo Dream, a Japanese based magazine, was released and quickly spread throughout the Metroid community like wildfire. This led to all sorts of discussions on the possbilities that these new revelations could be hinting at. While doing some research for this episode however, we noticed that a lot of the juicer info being talked about in the community stemmed not from the Nintendo Dream article, but from a piece by Universo Nintendo written by 'Necro' Felipe Lima attempting to translate the article from Japanese to Portuguese which has since been deleted. Being that a lot of this information is translated between 2 different languages, we realized that some of the stuff being talked about in the community might not be entirely accurate. Today, Doominal Crossing is joined by Dakota Latsky making his grand return as the two attempt to dissect this info once and for all. The duo goes over both the original Nintendo Dream article (with the help of Google Translate) as well as the Universo Nintendo follow-up to get an answer on what's fact, what's fiction and where the mistranslation happened.

All of this, plus a short follow-up discussion on new details from both of the 16 second Metroid Prime 4: Beyond spots discovered on YouTube, which we also covered on OmegaMetroid.com!
