With Metroid Prime 4 in the works for Switch, many fans have hoped that Nintendo would bring the series’ first three games to the platform. It’s unclear whether or not that will ever happen, but a former developer at Retro Studios has weighed in by sharing his own thoughts.
The Nerd Stash: "Looking to make some quick cash? Have some old Wii games lying around? Well, why not take a gander at our list of rarest Nintendo Wii games?"
Players jumping into the series before Metroid Prime 4 releases need access to the entire trilogy on the Switch, not just Metroid Prime Remastered.
Theyre gonna pull some BS, just watch. Im betting 1 and 2 will be sold individually then 3 will be a part of a trilogy pack.
I don't know why everybody is praising Nintendo for remastering Prime1 when they became silent radio on Prime4.
As much as I can see the game looking better it's still played exactly like the Metroid prime 1 on Gamecube or the Trilogy version that I also own on Wiiu (It's the Wii version but it was made a Wiiu title)
Because its a great remaster? And actually reasonably priced against all odds?
I dont need them to be telling me every six months that Prime 4 is still coming. They are developing the game and will show more details when its ready, simple as that.
I have no problems with Nintendo not showing it yet if they still don’t want to
it's 40
I've seen better remastered trilogies for roughly the same, hell I've seen collections 5 times bigger for half the price
and they released the COMPLETE trilogy on Wii-u for 20$

@pete
And that was still the Wii version, with literally no WiiU enhancements whatsoever…
I 100% prefer a remaster of the level we got at $40 than just a simple upres port of the trilogy at $60 like it has happened with basically every other Nintendo remaster so far, or even worse for them to release a Wii port for $20 with no enhancements
Not to mention this is clearly part of the work Retro is doing graphically for Prime 4
That's not accurate on either part. The Wii U "title" is only just the Wii version - motion controls and 480p only. This version is the first version with dual-stick controls so that alone makes the feel of this different than either version 10 or 20 years ago.
Yes like I said the Wii u is the Wii version but was billed as a Wiiu game the point it appears straight into the Wii-u Menu and not the Wii one like the Wii game but it is essentially the Wii Trilogy offered at a discount price at the time with remote controls.
As much as you can see? Guess you missed the part about modernized controls. I also saw a video that showed off an updated soundtrack.
Ok they modernized control... update the music basically exactly what they did with the Wii trilogy (that supported motion control-like corruption)
My point isn't that the game is fined tune but the fact that ppl celebrate Nintendo for not delivering something that was a major announcement in 2017.
How would ppl feel if Sony was announcing Uncharted 5 and after 6 years they would release a remaster of the 1st Uncharted or if the upcoming Perfect Dark by MS is ... the remaster of the 1st one so you can still wait.
Heck I can already see the Xbox has no game or can't make a game comment flooding in
And also you know that they didn't made the trilogy so they can release the others game later on.
and TLOU on PS5 plays exactly the same as it does on PS4. What's your point? A great game deserves to be enjoyed by a larger audience.
and the majority of the crowd dissed Sony for basically remastering a Ps4 titles
how many reviews gave it a great score but mentioned that the price was too high?
Heck, go see Angry joe review it's the perfect satire where he basically goes fetch the review of the Ps4 changes some filters, renames the file name to Tlou part 1, and press play.
Also, did NaughtyDog announce Tlou3 Part 5 years ago?
Again my issue isn't that they remaster a great game it's the fact that they are giving a middle finger to fans of the actual trilogy (ppl like me who basically own all previous versions) while saying get ready for parts 2 and 3 before the damn part 4.
And let's be clear if Microsoft would have put that crappy move with a 40$ Remake of Halo1 instead of Infinite
the negative comments would have flooded this thread.
Heck just wonder what would happen if MS release a Perfect Dark remaster instead of the new one?
What are you on, Pete?
Halo CE already got remade, in 2011. Then it got re-released again as part of MCC in 2014. It's still getting updated. Nintendo hasn't said anything about remakes of Prime 2 or 3. The only TLOU being officially worked on is Factions and Part 1 PC.
What you're saying here is wrong, your initial post is wrong, and all of your follow ups have been wrong.
but that would be expected to cost less and nintendo doesn't like things costing less
especially when people keep supporting that anyway
Metroid fans for years: "we want prime remastered."
Metroid fans after getting what they want: "yeah.... It's ok but where's the rest"
Notice that the people bitchin aren't the "Nintendo Fans".
That age old myth of "Crazed, Zealot acting Nintendo fans" is a construct from years of trolling coming from
"opposite camp fans".
Most of the people you see complaining here arent true Nintendo fans, they are low key "imposters" that fake
"concern", because "they care" when in reality you only see praising only what others do but Nintendo in teir eyes can only do wrong...its gotten old and it didnt work against the Switch's success and it probably never will.
In the meantime, i prefer to enjoy stuff instead of being day in and day out "disapointed" in the stuff i dont care about. Would it had been nice to have all 3? Sure, does it make this one less great? Abso-F&^in-lutely NOT. :)
It's almost like there are a variety of people on the internet with varying opinions
Crazy
Ah yes, There are in fact many with varied opinions and that in itself is a great thing to have, what is not so great is the people who either try to either force their opinions on to you, or try to guilt you into either feeling bad or dumb for not conforming to their opinion. Or as an alternative those who dont have a valid argument and resort to either belittling others or going for low petty insults to puff their egos online.
I personally care for none of the examples above, but have seen a lot of it happen for many years now.
I stick to being around peeps who enjoy the medium (video games) and dont feel the need to crap over somebody else's enjoyment.

And that's what we're looking at in today's top 10, the very best video game compilations ever!"
Game Cube's Legend of Zelda Collectors Edition.---Zelda, Zelda 2, Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask.
I wouldn't be surprised
I just think it's funny how all the games announced for the Switch in the past 2-3 years, this and Bayonetta 3 are the only ones that haven't released yet, two games which are probably the most demanding.
Nintendo can't do to Metroid what they've done to Kirby, Yoshi and Donkey Kong, making cute little side scrollers with different art styles. So it's probably why they are struggling with Metroid 4 and the direction it's going to take, I mean it's already had to restart development once. Even with Zelda, compared to those tech demos, we've never had anything like it.
I would like a new Metroid game I haven't played Metroid since the SNES I own the original on NES I bought cheap in a pawnshop. I skipped the Prime games on the Game Cube now I have to buy them individually just to play them on my Wii. Nintendo could at least port the Prime games to the Switch they are good at porting other games to the Switch. Why they avoid the Prime games is stupid it opens the franchise to those who missed out on the Game Cube games or it also opens the door to those who were not even around when the Game Cube came out. I went out of my way to buy a Switch just to wait for Metroid. You never know unless you try and put in the hours to make the Prime games work on the Switch and in the end it will pay off there are Metroid fans out there in the world.
Like the Switch Pro the Metroid Prime collection Switch Edition has been brought up since 2017. We are now in 2021 and "insiders" are still saying its coming. At this point if the Prime Trilogy isn't announced at E3 2021 this has been one of the the longest running gags I've ever experienced. lol
I'd like to see the trilogy get remade for Switch and I know it would be successful too.
It would would be great if Nintendo could work with a company like Nightdive Studios, who are wizards at making old source code work for modern systems.
Im just going to play the trilogy on an emulator at this point...
