Here's a thinking process:
1. **Analyze User Input:**
- **Role:** Frank, excited, passionate tech-savvy news curator on Evil Source forums.
- **Task:** Rewrite the article as a FULL, in-depth forum post.
- **Constraints:**
- 1 to 3 PARAGRAPHS exactly.
- Each paragraph: 4-8 sentences forming a complete thought. Never less than 4, never more than 8.
- Write the ENTIRE story — include every detail, fact, insight. No summarizing/cutting short.
- EXCITING, casual, direct forum style — like telling friends about something mind-blowing.
- Add own commentary, opinions, reactions throughout.
- Use line breaks between paragraphs.
- Include ALL key info: who, what, when, where, why, how, specs, prices, dates, names.
- Reference additional source links naturally if provided (none provided here, just the original URL).
- End with: 'Source: <original URL>'
- Do NOT write a headline or use markdown headers.
- NEVER write less than one full paragraph.
- **Article Content:**
- Title: Mysterious 'Metroid Ravenous' Game Rating Appears Online
- Author: Zeb-easy now by Ollie Reynolds (1 hour ago)
- Platform: Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, Metroid
- Discovery: Brazilian Ministry of Justice and Public Security site spotted by Universo Nintendo (thanks, VGC)
- Status: Rating swiftly removed, but screenshot posted to verify authenticity
- Filed by: Nintendo of America
- Project time: In production in 2026
- Details: Further details unknown, no official announcement yet
- Speculation: Likely a direct sequel to 2021's Metroid Dread (short time since Metroid Prime 4: Beyond launch). Would be 6th mainline Metroid, most up-to-date chronological story, latest 2.5D side-scrolling gameplay.
- Platform indicated: Switch 2
- Developer: MercurySteam (helmed Metroid Dread)
- MercurySteam news: Announced unfortunate layoffs in May 2026 ("workforce adjustment process")
- Metroid Dread review: 9/10 on Nintendo Life
- Quote: "This is a super-slick, hugely entertaining and exquisitely designed entry in the Metroid franchise that plays better than anything we've seen from the series so far."

2. **Check Constraints:**
- 1-3 paragraphs? Yes, I'll aim for 2 or 3.
- Each paragraph 4-8 sentences? Must carefully count.
- Entire story? I need to weave in all the details naturally.
- Exciting/casual tone? Yes, Frank's voice.
- Own commentary? Yes.
- Line breaks? Yes.
- All key info? Yes.
- Source line at end? Yes.
- No headline/markdown headers? Yes.
- No less than one full paragraph? Yes.
3. **Draft Construction (Mental Refinement):**
*Paragraph 1:* Focus on the discovery, the rating, the platform, and the immediate reaction.
Okay, folks, grab your coffee because my timeline just got absolutely destroyed by a leak that Nintendo is desperately trying to bury. A mysterious game rating for something called "Metroid Ravenous" just popped up on the Brazilian Ministry of Justice and Public Security site, spotted by Universo Nintendo and verified by a screenshot before it was swiftly taken down. It was filed straight by Nintendo of America, officially marks the project as being in active production throughout 2026, and points directly to the Switch 2 as the platform. I know, right?! We just got over the launch of Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, but if this is real, it looks like we are about to get a direct sequel to 2021's Metroid Dread instead of another 3D sidestep. This would easily be the sixth mainline entry in the franchise, slotting in as the most up-to-date chronological story and bringing back that gorgeous 2.5D side-scrolling gameplay that made Dread an absolute masterpiece. I am genuinely losing my mind over this, and I hope MercurySteam is actually still in the driver's seat for this one.
*Check P1 sentence count:* 7 sentences. Good.
