  • thumb Michael Kelbaugh es el presidente de Retro Studios en Austin, Texas. Kelbaugh fue también el productor ejecutivo de Saga Prime. Apareció en Metroid Prime Trilogy: La Voz del Desarrollo promocionando Metroid Prime Trilogy. A principios de 2000, Kelbaugh estuvo involucrado en casi todos los lanzamientos más grandes de la primera y la segunda parte de Nintendo, trabajando para administrar y eliminar los errores del ciclo de control de calidad antes de que los juegos fueran enviados al comercio minorista. En 2002, él todavía supervisaba, como director de prueba en la jefatura americana de Nintendo, el apenas lanzado Metroid Prime. thumb El lanzamiento de Prime marcó un punto de inflexión para Retro Studios, y con el respaldo de Nintendo, pudieron hacer dos secuelas, Metroid Prime 2: Echoes y Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. Antes de la publicación de la secuela, el presidente y fundador de Retro Studios, Jeff Spangenberg, vendió su parte de la compañía a Nintendo. Dos años más tarde, Kelbaugh fue nombrado nuevo presidente y comenzó a supervisar el resto del trabajo de Retro Studios en la franquicia Prime.

Many employees threatened to quit the company because of this move, but Kelbaugh insisted that they wait a few weeks just to see, and if they still weren't satisfied, to leave. By the end of the few weeks, not a single employee left.

Before the release of the follow-up, Retro president and founder Jeff Spangenberg sold his part of the company to Nintendo. Two years later, Kelbaugh was appointed the new president and began overseeing the rest of Retro's work on the Prime franchise.
