Image via Nintendo<\/figcaption><\/figure> Metroid II: Return of Samus <\/h2> Set directly after the original game for NES, Metroid II <\/em>follows the bounty hunter as she prevents the Space Pirates from obtaining the Metroids by eradicating the species on their home planet, SR388. Other teams sent by the Galactic Federation have failed, so it\u2019s up to Samus to finish it.<\/p> Just like the others, Metroid II<\/em> is available with the basic Nintendo Switch Online membership since the game was originally released on the Game Boy back in 1991.<\/p> Image via Nintendo<\/figcaption><\/figure> Metroid Fusion<\/h2> Metroid Fusion <\/em>lets you play as you guessed it, Samus Aran after she is infected with a dangerous shapeshifting X parasite. You\u2019ll battle these parasites as they infest the BSL space station. This game takes place right before Dread<\/em>, so it\u2019s a great one to play if you\u2019re interested in getting Dread<\/em>, too.<\/p> You\u2019ll need the next tier of Nintendo Switch Online membership to get this title, the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack. This nabs you tons of Game Boy Advance games, like Metroid Fusion<\/em>, along with titles from the N64 and SEGA Genesis.<\/p> Are more Metroid games coming to Switch?<\/h2> Metroid Prime 4: Beyond<\/em> is on its way to join the roster of Metroid<\/em> titles on the Switch. It\u2019s scheduled to be released in 2025, though the exact date is still unknown.<\/p> As of right now, there is no news on whether more ports to the Switch will be available for the Metroid <\/em>series, including Prime 2 <\/em>or Prime 3<\/em> remasters. The Switch is nearing the end of its life cycle and a successor to the console will be announced soon, but we\u2019re still keeping our hopes up for more ports.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Where to get your Metroid fix on Switch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":933,"featured_media":546912,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"article_type":"","gamurs_wordpress_blocks_hide_tags":false,"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_is_hidden":false,"apple_news_is_paid":false,"apple_news_is_preview":false,"apple_news_is_sponsored":false,"apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":"[]","apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"footnotes":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false},"categories":[21983,21999],"tags":[232,22000,576,20394,15294,19111],"internal-label":[24740,24742,25427,24255],"invoiceable_action":[23726],"article_type":[23118],"coauthors":[{"id":933,"display_name":"Annie Thelen","user_login":"Annie Thelen","user_nicename":"annie-thelen"}],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
