This looks absolutely stunning on the OLED.

I think people have forgotten how old Metroid Prime actually looks when played on a Gamecube, and how little the Switch can actually output.
Won't defend the price, but it does look crunchy.

I have this exact figure on my desk!It seems definitely the textures and lighting are upgraded, and I'm fairly certain the geometry has as well.
Time to dust off the ol' Switch again!
You are an absolute joke.

You should look up how it was on GameCube, Switch version is a considerable leap forward.
Calm down or you will be removed.
We deserved a REMAKE for $50 CND. This is stupid as fuck.
It's 2023, we could have had BETTER AI, a GOOD FOV, just better everything. Making the game more like a modern game.
Taking this and thinking it's great, you're a joke.
This is why Nintendo gets away with this bullshit, because it's fanbois are so rabbid and loyal.

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
Yet you masturbated to The Last of Us and are dissing this for... launching for almost 50% less? Lol.
You're very much blind if you think this is just the same game in higher resolution, lol. Just stop talking so you don't embarass yourself further. You just jumped in to trash talk because you're bitter about your sony box and just spew ignorant shit.
This is a proper remaster, not like some other games just render in higher res and call it a day or call new textures and some models here and there a full on remake.
You too jaysius, even if you mostly avoid saying what you actually do know is bullshit so you just react in agreement with such fools and disagreement with the rest, lol.
I don't even have a Switch, you guys are being stupid.

How many gigabytes is the download for Metroid Prime Remastered?
I have a Switch and I've never played Metroid Prime.

Considering the original is 60FPS, if this version isn’t I’m flying all of NeoGAF to Kyoto to riot if this isn’t

In what world was this a surprise? This has been heavily rumored for literally years now.
And it's not a remake.

True but I'd rather have confirmation first

Never heard any.

Not just an up-rez. Geometry improvements, better effects, new lighting, new textures, gyro and twin stick control options.

Only thing I'm disappointed in is they didn't make the beam blasts light up. Clearly they have dynamic lighting there with those enemies that are glowing and illuminate dark halls and corridors but they don't apply that to your shots or muzzle flash.
However, maybe that would be too distracting or completely change the dark mood they wanted for those areas because you don't have to worry about ammo in these games so you'd just light up the whole area by your shooting? I don't know
Oh, also, the first organic sandy areas could have a bit more extensive overhaul in some of the assets, the first big tree looked pretty chunky still and the camera zoomed right in on that, when in other areas they've made other stuff much smoother...

Calling this a remaster is a bit of a disservice imo. They've put a lot of work into this, game looks absolutely fantastic. Certainly a much larger jump than TLOU to Part I, and it's not something that's been released 3 times in a decade.
And it's a far far better game.

Man does it look like utter trash docked even on a 1440p screen with Mclassic on
However, it looks ridiculous in portable mode (got the Oled switch) and they really added so much so far graphically, genuinely impressed. Done with Chozo Ruins, nothing disappointing. Keep in mind last run I did was a Gamecube one, haven't played the Wii version so I don't know how it compares but in the intro alone theres a lot that changed visually
Also, bummed at the Gyro which just isn't practical at all, some serious latency in there which is a shame tbh

Thanks both - another gaming purchase this month. Need to stop buying now and start playing!

Thanks for demonstrating those calling it just an upres are trolling on behalf of their favorite box that feels hurt for whatever reason since despite the plentiful footage and videos the extensive upgrades are obvious in for anyone who has seen these games before, they just keep repeating it anyway.

Yeah, I noticed some visual incosistencies like that too. Some parts didn't get as much as attention as others it seems. Still looks gorgeous overall.Only thing I'm disappointed in is they didn't make the beam blasts light up. Clearly they have dynamic lighting there with those enemies that are glowing and illuminate dark halls and corridors but they don't apply that to your shots or muzzle flash.

It looks more awesomer than the gamecube game. It's not flat looking. They upgraded alot!
