It looks just as good if not better than MPR. Atleast they tried something new with the psychic powers.

Nintendo: "Buy a Switch 2 now to unlock the textures!"

 

[Fbh]

Visually it looks fine (specially if it's aiming for 60fps on the Switch).
But the trailer just seemed underwhelming.

It has been over 15 years since the last game and the best you've got to get me excited is "Samus must scan stone figures to carve a path forward" and "These new powers allow Samus to operate mechanisms.....and open doors".

Like I get those are staples of the franchise but I was expecting a bigger hook or wow factor. It's like they went out of their way to show to most boring uses of psychic powers.

 

[Ristifer]

Psychic powers are great and all. But there’s gotta be some other features that create more variety for the gameplay.

 

[Shaki12345]

The graphics look extremely well polished within the context of the hardware. Amazing visual artistry.

Retro magic still there. And 60fps. Wizardry.

What's wrong with not doing new things for the sake of it. You don't have to reinvent something that's already great.

MP1 gameplay in a new world is all we need.

Some people here doubting RetroStudio wizardry Must be new around.

 

[MagnesD3]

Its so unexciting lol and looks ugly as sin. But... the psychic powers if done right could make for some cool puzzles/situations so there is some hope. Really wish there was an innovation hook because after 3 very similar entries the prime series desperately needs one.

 

[Shaki12345]

Some people here have no idea abut graphics. Saying MP4 could run on PS3 for example.

The core gameplay can still exist with improvements. It’s not like introducing new elements erases the core of what makes it a Prime game.

 

[Meifu]

Dam where is the echoes remaster

Well, you'll get just that. Be happy. It's gonna be a great game. It doesn't need the treatments other sequels get. Less is more mate.

 

[Redneckerz]

All these low-effort posters making comparisons to N64 and Gamecube titles. So desperate to get their words in.

Game looks fine. Not mindblowing but Remaster wasnt either. Waiting how Switch 2 version will look.

Metroid Prime Remaster is quite possibly one of the best looking games on Switch. So yes, it IS mind-blowing.

 

[clarky]

First game to release a remastered version at the same time as the OG?

 

[TheInfamousKira]

Yep, that looks like a Metroid Prime game.

If it ain't broke...

 

[Sub_Level]

Eh, its metroid prime so it will probably be really good. I am not worried.

What they have shown so far just doesn't have that hook. that thing that makes you say "ooooh shit, buckle up lads".

Prime Remaster is really impressive, Youtube compression doesn’t make justice. Prime 4 looks even better, is amazing what RetroStudio can achieve with the Switch 1 hardware, i can’t wait to see what they can achieve with the Switch 2.

 

[SupaComputa]

Two trailers and they didn't show much, seems like they tried something new, canned it and then gone with run-of-the-mill ideas to release it and be done with it.

Yeah man. Looks like some people here have no clue at all about what's possible on Switch. This game does things Switch shouldn't be able to do.

It's magic by Retro. These guys are wizards.

Nintendo always does this, this is NOT the trailer to sell the game, is just an update.

 

[Hollowpoint5557]

I can hear Samus already, "Did I just open that door with my freaking MIND!??"

 

[OverHeat]

This look like halo 4

 

[StueyDuck]

the first trailer didn't either, So i really hope something is hidden in the background, the "cappy" moment for MP4

I'm sure people get what i mean with odyssey

 

[SimTourist]

Samus

 

[Baemono]

Am i tripping or the metroid prime 3 remake looks better lol

What is exactly Metroid Prime 3 Remake ?

 

[K' Dash]

I'm going to be there day 1.

I'll double dip on SW2 if I have to, I don't care.

 

[LordOcidax]

This look like halo 4

Halo 4 designers were ex retro studios employees. I think they are back to Retro. So, make sense.

 

[Luipadre]

What is exactly Metroid Prime 3 Remake ?

they called it a remaster sorry but its a remake

 

[Emedan]

My mind playin tricks on me or was the first trailer better looking, might that have been captured from the Switch 2 version?

 

[Ristifer]

Well, you'll get just that. Be happy. It's gonna be a great game. It doesn't need the treatments other sequels get. Less is more mate.

Never said it wasn’t going to be great. Be happy with other people’s opinions.

 

[HRK69]

Finally someone who gets it

 

[Shaki12345]

Some opinions just suck mate.

 

[Baemono]

Do you mean Metroid Prime 1 ?

 

[Ristifer]

Some opinions just suck mate.

Yes, I’ve seen yours plastered enough times to know.

 

[Zuzu]

I hope this game doesn’t end up being overlooked since it’s coming out at the end of the Switch 1 generation and will be overshadowed by the Switch 2 hype. But if there’s an awesome Switch 2 version which is one of the flagship titles of the Switch 2 launch titles then hopefully it pulls in players. But hopefully it doesn’t end up like Okami at the end of the PS2 generation.

 

[Parazels]

Did those enemies resist? Looks like they enabled a very easy mode for the trailer.

 

[Kacho]

Game looks fine.

Looks more than fine for a Switch game. I'd say it looks great.

 

[Hayriko]

It takes place on planet Viewros.

They have a whole team and all they could think of is Viewros? xD
Besides that it looks fine for a switch game

 

[SimTourist]

Some people here have no idea abut graphics. Saying MP4 could run on PS3 for example.

It absolutely could, it's not even remotely touching something like Killzone 2, Uncharted 2 or GoW 3 in terms of graphics.

 

[Shaki12345]

If you think MP4 could run at this fidelity in 60fps on PS3, you must be really retarded.

Like, beyond help retarded.

 

[LordOcidax]

they called it a remaster sorry but its a remake

They didn’t change anything, it’s just a graphic update and added some control options, the core structure of game is intact. So, is a remaster.

 

[SmokedMeat]

 

[Robb]

Man, I can’t wait to play this. More Metroid Prime straight into my veins please.

Definitely a Switch 2 purchase for me though.

 

[Mozza]

Is this a N64 remaster? Geez. Not impressed, especially for how long this game has supposedly been in development.

Now come on..

 

[SimTourist]

If you think MP4 could run at this fidelity in 60fps on PS3, you must be really retarded.

Like, beyond help retarded.

Who knows if it's gonna be 60 fps on switch and what native resolution

 

[Shaki12345]

Who knows if it's gonna be 60 fps on switch and what native resolution

Dude, it's 60fps. All the trailers are 60fps.

 

[LordOcidax]

I think you need to connect your PS3 again and make a comparison side by side with Prime Remaster vs whatever PS3 game you choose… Prime is in another whole league, it’s not even close.
