I do miss Iwata.

I absolutely hate having to do any downloading whatsoever.

I wish nintendo would release the entire nes library on hard copy switch cards. Theoretically it should be easy and I guarantee would make them some serious profits.

"not everyone has two grand" A Steam Deck is like 50 bucks more than a Switch dude

How....how ...how in the hell do you not have more subs? That was such a great, entertaining well done video. Bravo.

6:09 With the Dread story-line of Samus’s origins(don’t want to spoil if for ppl who haven’t played Dread yet) Prime Remastered takes a different tone when uncovering the Prime plot The Chozo knew of Samus Aran and also knew she would find her way home💯

Dude I don’t know if it’s because I’m old But prime remastered is even harder to me than Dread😂 Still havent finished this Fing game😂

I love the switch but i also love the new 3dsxl

Prime was and is yet again a masterpiece

I'm going to need for you to retract what you said about baggy pants.

This and so many others are why I’m a lifelong Nintendo fan. They take the industry seriously not only for themselves but for their loyal player base as well. Currently on my second play through of Metroid Prime Remastered and honestly I feel guilty I only paid $40 for it versus the normal $60 that Switch games normally go for. Decided to play it on casual mode this time too because I wanted a comfy play through to enjoy the story haha

It‘s unbelievable that Super Metroid and Prime are only 8yrs apart. The advances in technology and therefore approaches to game design were incredible during the first 20yrs of „real“ video gaming, like since 85. Compared to that, think about how little games have evolved in the past 20yrs, let alone in the past 8. Game designs‘s primary focus went from immersive entertainment to providing services, incl. micro transactions, loot boxes snd the likes. That‘s a big reason why titles like Metroid Prime are still so beloved to this day. It’s pretty sad actually. 🫤

Aw man, I got emotional when you dropped that Iwata quote. RIP.

Oh yeah, I love Papa the Rapper 🤦‍♂

Three new Metroid games? Dread is the only NEW Metroid game on the Switch the rest are ports.

Nice spoilers.

I wanted to agree with you, but the Switch underperforms and can't even run its exclusive games on 60 fps Heck, it can barely keep consistent at 30. The only function any console has is to run a game. And the Switch underperforms the one thing it was made for.

Modern games: "We can't compete with Metroid Prime Remastered!" Metroid Prime 4 Beyond: "Fine, I'll do it myself."

The amount of care, polish and attention to detail Nintendo puts into their AAA titles makes everyone else look lazy by comparison. Retro took an all ready classic game and made it better. They didn’t just blow the dust off it and put on new paint but they took everything great and made it greater. Nintendo spent over a year polishing Tears of the Kingdom.

Metroid Dread was my first metroid game, i always wanted to play metroid growing up, especially Prime as the gameplay made me think of Halo and the side scrolling games didnt look appealing to me like Megaman/X. Based on how Nintendo did Dread, I'm actually fairly faithful the next prime game wont he a microtransaction buggy mess.

I agree, Switch and PC i adore because they make fun ass games

I just bought this game a few weeks ago because it was on sale for like 30% off. I'm a big fan of Super Metroid and Metroid Dread, but never played the Prime Trilogy. When I first played it and completed it a week ago, my mind was blown. I was so upset that I didn't play this masterpiece during the GameCube era.

1:47 I love this sentence. Beautifully sums it up. “In a world full of microtransactions, repetitive/non-innovative gameplay, excessive focus on graphics, and buggy unfinished releases: Prime triumphs over its competitors.”

I was ironically playing my switch while listening to this play it more then my other consoles its just more convenient to play games on what it lacks in tech it makes up for in unique gaming experiences

You can bet the new Zelda game Will sell 10M+ units, and about 2 more will surpass that 10M mark.

It is no where to the best system ever made. It has yet to beat its own sales of the DS. Not to mention none of their consoles has yet to beat the sales of the PS2. And both the DS and Switch includes all variations, gens, of those consoles in that total. The PS2 is only one gen of the PS, yet still out sold handhelds.

My only real complaint about Metroid Prime Remastered is that the backtracking compared to Echoes can be long and tedious(still hoping for Echoes and Corruption to also get remastered). Beyond that the game still holds up and looks absolutely fantastic, even at the Nintendo Switch's native 1080p docked output. Changes to the lighting and materials make it look like a a really good texture pack for Metroid Prime, while the updated controls make it easier to play. As a bonus, add the Retrotink 4K in the mix with HDR and colorimetry set REC 709. It will upscale the Nintendo Switch to 4K 60 and enhance the already excellent lighting that much further.

waiting for metroid prime 4 beyond

Although its great, i like part's two and three a bit better. Which is the best?? For me it's between 2,3. I can't decide...

All Metroid games r great...

I contemplated getting a Switch for several years, but this game's announcement was what finally got me to the finish line. It wasn't Breath of the Wild, or Mario Odyssey, or any other major Nintendo franchise. It was Metroid. This series has always been in a league of it's own, and Nintendo's most compelling franchise in my opinion.

The Prime series will always be my favorite part of the series. The world building is fantastic, especially through the Scan Visor. The focus on environmental puzzles is one of the things I love about the games. I can't wait for Prime 4 to come out, because Retro came back from the abyss to whip up a Prime game made like they used to, and it's lookin grand.

Metroid prime was the sole reason why I got a gamecube and I wasn't let down. Gamecube is great. The games were great. Aside from the virtual boy, nintendo's failed consoles were never failures in my eyes. They all had good games and that's all that mattered to me.

Great stuff. I stream nintendo games and do content too.

I was 25 when this came out and was very apprehensive, having been a metroid fan for quite some time beforehand. I'm happy to say that I wasn't disappointed upon release and it still remains in my top 10 games, probably top 5. A true masterpiece.

Great topic, video, & enthusiasm... tho... Would you kindly turn down the intro-music volume a couple notches, please? I jumped, & your talking points are @ a perfect volume... Keep Fan Boying, cuz we will too.

Not to mention they nailed it on the first try. I can't describe how much I love this game.

More games like this one... prime 4 is on it's way now, hopefully 2 and 3 as well...

Hdmi port

Prime is so good. Second best game in the franchise after Super Metroid imo. The remaster was basically a perfect version of prime too where it only added to the original and didn’t take anything away.

To be fair it's not a console. It's a handheld that you can play on a TV. Much like you could do with the psp. That being said they have some of the best ips this gen.

Metroid Prime has been in my top 5 since I played it on GameCube. Bought that on day one.

The start of the video showing the electronics of the store brought immediate memories.

I fucking love my switch! it's my favorite console by far! EVER! and I am an old man at this point.

This game hasn’t aged apart from a checkpoint system. But arguably that adds to the atmosphere. Maybe a few more save stations would have been a good addition. But this is a remaster not a remake.

Everyone thinks a new switch is coming out but this is nintendo. I expect a portable and big screen console but don't be shocked if they add a new fun gimmick.

DS Lite or 3DS--Nintendo's finest. First party games for the Switch are good but many would argue they're kid's games. To counter that there are many AAA conversion but they're lazy; not optimised for hand-held play (you can't read the text) they need to be played in docked mode where they look inferior to other console versions. You can buy any game from the Nintendo Game Store but it's not curated so anyone can post a junk game; there are so many of these games in the store it is a real chore to find something good. Best in the world? Nah. Best hype? Yeah.

This game is so good 👍

It amazes me that I've seen this actually happening in gaming. Who would have thought that having systems being bigger and stronger, and games being more and more graphically impressive would be the reason so many modern games fall. Don't get me wrong, I get wanting a game to look good. But as someone who's gamed for a while I've learned that that doesn't matter nearly as much as people used to think. Hell my favorite system is the Sega Genesis, those graphics are dated but it's still got a fun library. And I think companies soon will start to learn this or go under very soon after seeing so many games start to fail. Gamers are not complex nor are we an unpredictable group of buyers. We just want fun. If your game cost a quarter billion to make and most that money goes into graphics, into making it cinematic, story, so on, then it feels more like a movie. And then you are not focused on gamers, you are focused on people who want to play a movie like a game, which as we've seen is not a super big market. If you want to make gameplay, make games. If you want to make a pretty looking cinematic experience, make a movie, do not try to blend them there are different forms of entertainment for a reason

Sega had the best consoles ever made because the Dreamcast basically pre dated everything that goes on today.
