    Metroid Prime Remastered review

    Great game...you can count me as someone who believed Metroid should always be a 2D platformer...realized how wrong I was now that I have played this...Never played any Metroid Prime games until this...the updated controls make it a joy to play...very happy with this purchase!

    An incredible remaster and hopefully more to come

    The Metroid franchise has always been very near and dear to my heart and the prime trilogy is no exception. A refined Metroid gaming experience bringing Samus to the big screen was always a gem of the earlier years of modern gaming and entertainment. The Metroid prime series always stood out amongst its peers especially when it came to Nintendo titles which it did tend to stray from what they were more well known for. What you get here is a beautiful remaster that really shows that the switch is capable of handling titles at a higher degree when it is given the proper care and attention and Metroid Prime's remaster is just that. A beautifully handled remaster that brings the most out of the switch and also brings an older title back from the GameCube days up to modern standards and really shows what it is physically capable of doing. I only hope that moving forward they give the sequels equal amount of attention and love on the switch too but don't neglect the original switch as well as it can still handle some of those titles brought up to modern specifications.

    Late to the game Metroid fan

    I had never played a Metroid game more than 10 minutes or so until this one. The music, controls and gameplay are just about as good as they can get. The visuals are stunning and the fact it runs at such a smooth frame rate is a testament to the programmers. Highly recommend this game to anyone, even if not a Metroid fan before, much like myself.

    Perfect Remaster!!

    Amazing!! Everything I've been waiting for in a remaster of this classic game! The controls feel great. The graphics are spectacular. The only thing that I don't like is having to wait for the remasters of 2 and 3. Great job Nintendo!!
