Recent lower effort examples would be stuff like Mario 3D Collection and DKC Tropical Freeze Switch, whereas something like Ocarina 3D and Twilight Princess HD are higher effort, maybe even Skyward Sword. Tue 28th Jun It's not "less polished", more like lower effort put into the re-release.If you think we’ll be asked to pay $150-$180 for these three games, I don’t know what to tell you, Ninja approved or not… They’re also not stupid enough to release the Prime games as three separate full priced games, as they wouldn’t sell at all well to justify the practise. New IPs like Splatoon show that Nintendo places faith and value in its own creations. Even the lesser represented franchises hold value to Nintendo as a company as ultimately they provide the biggest selling points in wanting to buy a Nintendo console. Nintendo can, and do, compete based on its catalogue of franchises. A lot of people buy Nintendo solely on the exclusive titles you can’t experience elsewhere. They are fully aware that their brand name and their IP generate enough goodwill to compete with Sony and Microsoft for the main part. Nintendo haven’t got to where they are today because they’re producing powerhouse consoles. Like them or not, franchises like Animal Crossing, Kirby, Fire Emblem and Pokemon are huge, and the lesser loved franchises (Donkey Kong, legacy IPs etc) are what has made Nintendo as successful as it is today. You can check out the entire discussion in the video below. "And Metroid Prime 1, my understanding is that's getting the big remaster treatment, and then Metroid Prime 2 and Metroid Prime 3 are sort of getting – they'll probably get like updated controls and things like that – but they're not getting quite the same overhaul that Metroid Prime 1 is getting." However Nintendo decides and what order to release their games, they are going to do that, but they're going to do it separately it sounds like."Īccording to his sources, Grubb also thinks that while the first game is getting the "big remaster treatment", the second two entries might see more modest updates: “They're also pretty much done it sounds like, but Nintendo being Nintendo is going to hold on to them and will likely drop them later along the road. Grubb went on to detail further plans for remasters of both Metroid Prime 2 and Metroid Prime 3, which he believes will launch at a later date. He also thinks that the remaster will feature dual analogue controls and gyro aiming to help prepare gamers for those 'new' elements in the upcoming Metroid Prime 4, which we still haven't heard about (in any official capacity) since its development was restarted nearly three-and-a-half years ago. So that's happening and they need to tell us when that release date is.” Now I’ve been told that their plans are to release that game this holiday, I think almost certainly to line up with the 20th anniversary in November. In the past this is something I've heard is in the works, they've had things happening with that game. “I could say that I've been told pretty definitively that Metroid Prime Remastered is going to be one of their big holiday games. Here's exactly what Grubb had to say on the subject: If you're wondering, 18th November 2022 is a Friday. Yes, Metroid Prime will be two decades old on 18th November and Nintendo is supposedly looking to launch the game around that time. Until we know for certain how extensive this remaster of Prime is, we can’t say why the two sequels were left out.It's one of those rumours that feels like it's been around for years because, well, it has, but Jeff Grubb of the Giant Bomb parish has once again gone on record with updated information regarding a Metroid Prime remaster - and this time there's even a release window attached.Īs discussed by Grubb on his Game Mess Mornings show broadcast earlier today (thanks, Nintendo Everything), his sources tell him that the long-rumoured remaster is being lined up for the GameCube game's 20th anniversary. Nintendo might be trying to recoup some lost profits by releasing the sequels individually, but it truly is an odd move after the Wii got Metroid Prime Trilogy. What is rather perplexing is the lack of Metroid Prime 2 and 3. If you’d rather have the original GameCube control method, that is also an option. Similar to modern first-person games, you’ll be able to play Metroid Prime in a style that has become standardized in the 21 years since the original’s release. One of the biggest changes for Metroid Prime Remastered is a brand-new dual analog stick control method. While there isn’t any kind of special edition, it does mean that those who would rather not pledge allegiance to our digital overlords will be able to hold a copy in their hands soon. For those that would rather opt for a physical version, Metroid Prime will be releasing on Februwith an MSRP of $59.99.
