Nintendo is releasing Metroid Prime: Federation Force this month, but has otherwise been quiet about the original game's anniversary.

The Metroid fans behind the @Metroid30th Twitter account, on the other hand, managed to track down Tanaka and ask him to share some thoughts with the game's fans. Tanaka provided a brief, poignant reflection, expressing his gratitude to the game's fans.

Isn't that nice?

Tanaka has continued to work at Nintendo ever since. His latest role was a production position on Great Detective Pikachu, which is yet to see a Western release.
