Customer Ratings & Reviews

Adored this game on the Prime Trilogy back in the day. Peak game design on display here. Have been waiting years since DKC:TF for Retro Studios to put something out. This is a perfect holdover for Prime 4. Retro proved that they still got it. Matches the original with visuals better than anything else on the platform. Nice in-game artwork, music, and 3D model bonuses. A variety of control options ranging from the original on GC, Wii-style motion controls, and modern two stick shotter controls. And to top it off, a $40 price tag. A must have for any Switch owner.

I didn't buy this for myself but for my boyfriend. He loves it. So happy I pre-ordered this one since they seem to be sold out at the moment. He plays it everyday. Every so often he gets excited about something in the game and has to show it to me. He does prefer to play with pro controller cause the joysticks give better control. Graphics are nice. The music is fantastic and probably my favorite part of the game. Bosses are great too.

I played this game when it first released on Gamecube in 2002. The remaster is incredible, maintaining the locked 60 fps of the original while updating the graphics to HD and utilizing PBR (physically based rendering) to make environments look realistic, a technique most thought the switch didn’t have the processing power to handle and is frequently used in the newest Call of Duty titles on other platforms. The world design and gameplay is sublime, and the updated control options make this game playable by anyone who is even slightly interested. If you like the Metroidvania gameplay style I recommend this as one of the best. Honestly, I recommend everyone give this one a chance. It’s one of the greatest games ever made.

First time I played this update Metroid for Wii in 2009 and now in 2023 Remastered for the OLED Switch. The storytelling, design work, and gameplay are as good as anything else produced in the last five years. This reworking is a throwback platformer to the original and the perfect way for contemporary and returning players to enjoy Metroid Prime. Controls and camera are much improved but graphics aren’t as good for an OLED Or 4K TV. A lot of secrets to find for hours of gameplay and Easter eggs.

Excellent game and the remaster looks great! Really fun to play with the updated two joystick movement style. New game plus is also super fun because scanned objects stay scanned and play is super quick. I shaved 2 hours off my fastest playthrough.

Эта игра — идеальный пример того, как нужно делать ремастеры. Графика была существенно улучшена, сохранив при этом атмосферу оригинала. Управление адаптировано под Nintendo Switch, и играть стало ещё удобнее. Саундтрек всё так же завораживает, а исследование мира Талон IV остаётся невероятно увлекательным.

One of the best games on GameCube is back and better than ever on Switch. The game looks so beautiful and totally upgraded from how it looked on GameCube. Then, there are several control options to play any way you like. I highly recommend this game to anyone who like adventure games. Please give this game a try.

I really enjoyed playing through this Metroid game since it’s been the first i played within years. The game runs so smoothly and didn’t recall any issues. It’s a tough game remembering and solving some of the puzzles but very interesting/engaging for the most part. If you really want to jump into the Metroid series, this is the game for it. I highly recommend it.

This game was on the GCto era was one of the best games ever, and now this remaster has enhance the game 100%, awesome game highly recommend it, also another thing that I want to mention was the price pretty cheap and excellent quality

It's Metroid Prime on the Nintendo Switch! Really good game highly recommend it!

As soon as I saw it I couldn't believe my very own eyes. Metroid prime remastered is an absolute masterpiece from the ground up and Retro Studios/Iron Galaxy did a magnificent job upscaling the graphics beyond my wildest expectations; though I do hope they add the fusion suits in future updates. Like the original GameCube version Prime remastered runs extraordinarily well on my switch console with zero issue. To those who have yet to experience this Metroid game, I only say this; it's most definitely a must play game & highly recommend it. As a fan of the original game, prime remastered is a well refined game & well worth every dollar spent.

If not better because the controls. Too many games now days hold your hand and guide you the whole way. It was nice to go back to the days where you're trusted with finding your own way.

As a first timer to the Metroid series, this game was such an excellent combination of fps and the Metroidvania style. Runs great on switch and feels great in handheld

Yo, this game holds up nicely! 5/5 Metroid Prime Remastered is one of the best remasters of the Nintendo Switch generation.

Simply put: Calling this "Remastered" doesn't do this enough justice. Truly, it appears as a full-on remake -- almost seems so. For those that loved its original release, you'll love this more. For those that didn't play it back then, if you're into shooters but with a Metroid twist, you'll most likely love this, as well.

Best Game in Switch. Revolutionary graphics. Worth every penny. Fast Shipping.

Bring back memories from 2001 Nintendo GameCube the very first time Nintendo switch to disc the graphics are sweet

I remember playing this Christmas 2002 on my GameCube. The amount of work and detail they put into this remaster is amazing.

Oddly enough, this is by far the best switch game to release on the Switch in many years. For a game that was released in the Gamecube Era, this game looks better than 98% of the Switch Library. If you haven't played this entry in the Metroid series, this is a must have.

Just like the original but remastered to the modern times. It feels more like a remake than a remastered version but plays just as well. The environments and the gameplay are back and I’m just enjoying myself with the game and can’t wait for others to enjoy this timeless classic 20 years since it’s release
