The original staff the developed Metroid Prime is not anymore at Retro. On top of that, their experience with HD is an unimpressive DK game so far, or at least released since 2010. This does not guarantee that they are going to squeeze the Switch’s power.

It makes me wonder if the game is going into development hell. At least when the original Metroid Prime games were made, Retro was staffed with guys who had been working on the Turok series. This isn't the case this time. Retro Studios will have some hiring to do. They're also slow, so 2023 or 2024 might be a more reasonable date considering it will probably take 4-5 years.

Retro Studios has been on a hiring spree recently.
