{'heading': 'Star Fox: The Franchise That Refused to Die', 'paragraph1': "Fans all over the world are rejoicing as Nintendo's beloved space shooters, Star Fox, return in a brand-new title, potentially ending a long-standing hiatus. Yet, one can't help but wonder: what's next for the other beloved franchises abandoned by the Japanese giant?", 'paragraph2': "It's been over two decades since the last installment of Metroid Prime.
