Metroid Prime Remastered Review - IGN

Metroid Prime Remastered honors a lauded classic and brings it up to code, fixing outdated controls and adding a slick coat of polygons and textures that make this masterpiece of a shooter shine once more.

One of my favorite games of all time. So glad to have it remastered on Switch. It looks and plays amazing!

I'm happy they remastered it but I just wish they would have released the trilogy. Can't support their greedy ways. Im enjoying it through emulation and motion controls on pc now since I was holding off for an announcement.

DEKUX12841d ago

Greedy ways? But ur too cheap to not steal a game you enjoy pathetic excuse for u stealing and pirating new games. Ur the reason why we ain’t getting no trilogy Cus think of u can sell 3 games and get different sales per game vs one single game that ppl are gona steal anyways and lose more money. Lol u call it greedy XD

VersusDMC841d ago

I usually shit on Nintendo 60 dollar ports ,over priced games and other shenanigans...but i see nothing wrong with the pricing on this one. I've seen comparison videos and it is a big improvement. I almost feel like calling it a remake as i think it looks better than some newer switch games. And it is 40 bucks. Bravo Nintendo.

It's Nintendo so of course it gets a 10. They could release a blank game cart and get an automatic 9.5.

Because Nintendo knows what’s up and prioritizes fun gameplay above anything else. Gaming in general would benefit immensely if people aren’t so obsessed with games that have pretty graphics but have mediocre and uninspired gameplay.

Flakegriffin840d ago (Edited 840d ago )

Exactly. People worry so much about graphics and not the game itself. The fact Nintendo shadow dropped a Metroid Prime Remaster AND the fact that it’s more of a remake rather than remaster is what’s incredible. Also, the fact they didn’t attempt to charge $70 for it, or even $60, is what’s even cooler. $40 for, basically, a remake of Metroid Prime. It doesn’t get any juicier than that.

A full game, remastered with no dlc, No microtransactions, no battle passes.

Imalwaysright840d ago

It's a Nintendo game getting a 10 so naturally an useless PS fanboy has to bitch and moan because he was reminded that Nintendo is able to create masterpieces.

Kakashi Hatake840d ago

Nintendo. Getting a Nostalgia pass since 2006. 10? Seriously?

NotoriousWhiz840d ago

Nostalgia is strong. True, but Nintendo games have a level of polish and focus on game play that is not seen in most other games.

i waited so long for this after rumored year after year, and it was absolutely worth the wait

Metroid Prime: The Story So Far - Everything You Need To Know Before Metroid Prime 4: Beyond

"Metroid Prime Trilogy, the Wii compilation of Retro Studios' first-person take on the Metroid series, launched in North America on 24th August 2009, exactly 15 years ago.

In honour of that sparking release (well, a little less sparkling than the originals in some places due to a few missing effects), we're taking the opportunity to recap Samus' story so far in the Metroid Prime games while we wait for the fourth numbered entry..." - Ollie Reynolds | NintendoLife

my most anticipated game.
just started playing the Trilogy on WiiU again (love the motion controls with wiimote)
amazing series!

Neonridr287d ago

if they aren't going to remaster all 3 titles prior to 4, it would have been nice if they just gave us a bare bones Switch port of the Wii U Trilogy. Thankfully I own that so I can still replay all 3 before 4 comes along.

druwepro286d ago

all 3 titles remastered would be awesome.
i would still miss the motion controls though :(
