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.

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.

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!!

Excellent remaster. If you’re a fan of the Metroid series or a new comer. Good game to start with and the price. Not the biggest fans of remasters but this one does everything just right.

The game itself is great. It has different control types depebds how you want to play. Hybrid orifinal gamecube controls or motion controls. I would have put 4 5 stars if it allowed me because I would have prefered to have the prime trilogy remade. Rrgardless its a great game for both bewcomers and old fans

Metroid Prime has been lovingly Remastered with enhanced graphics and smooth gameplay. This release is similar to the 2010 rerelease of Goldeneye - without the switching of actor likeness. If you missed playing this game in the past, you would now feel as if you are playing a recent-release modern-day title. If you grew up playing this game, you would now love the fact that the game is how you remember - just with enhanced images and atmosphere to bring more of the alien fear.

I love Metroid Prime and when I heard it was getting remastered I was like "ok". But once it was revealed, its obvious that this game was rebuilt from the ground up to run on the Switch. And it looks fantastic.
