PPR Presents Limelight: Metroid Prime 4: Beyond

t’s been nearly a decade since the long-awaited new chapter for the Metroid Prime series was teased at the end of a Nintendo Direct with Metroid Prime 4.

Since then, we’ve gotten a new logo, a subtitle, and some reassurance that yes, it’s still coming, WELL into the point that we’ve gotten the Nintendo Switch 2 now, and it’s here where we’ll show you our look at the game as George will be streaming Metroid Prime 4: Beyond for Limelight on Press Pause Radio! This should make for an interesting stream too because he’ll be testing out the new Mouse-oriented controls with the use of his of official Super NES Mouse Pad.

The first stream was a wild ride into the new psychic power mechanics, and the enviornmental puzzles designed around them were dope as all hell. Now that George has made it to the Desert area, we'll be able to see the game open up even more. Oh, and don't worry, George made sure to snag a Samus & Vi-O-La Amiibo so that we can all get the sweet tunes that were stupidly locked out of the base game!

Be sure to tune in to our Twitch or YouTube  at 12:00 PM PST on 12/11/2025 to watch Samus Aran’s new first-person adventure on the Switch 2! You can check out the streams here or directly on our Twitch and YouTube channels, and vibe along with us as we work towards ushering in a new age of Limelight for y'all!

QCF: Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D

ack in the day, when they weren’t developing half-hearted motion titles or games with papier-mâché animals in them, Rare had a partnership where they developed games for Nintendo, and they got their big break reviving one of the Big N’s biggest icons; Donkey Kong.  While the reception toward the Donkey Kong Country franchise has always been wildly mixed (seriously, what’s up with these guys?) it’s definitely secured enough of a following for Retro Studios to live up to their name so to speak, and release a modern sequel on Wii…

Flash forward to 2013, Nintendo makes the call for Retro to port the monkeys over to the 3DS, and Retro being the forward-thinking bunch that they are, decided to work on all of the criticisms of its Wii cousin, it’s safe to say that they succeeded.
