This news follows the success of Metroid Prime Remastered, which launched in 2023 and garnered critical acclaim. The game is expected to retain its darker tone while providing enhanced visual and gameplay experiences familiar from its original release.
It is very peculiar how Nintendo has handled the 3 games, with releases more than a year after their completion, in fact they can release them whenever they want.
What did you think of Metroid Prime: Remastered? How do you think Metroid Prime 2: Remastered will compare?
Have you played it on dolphin with primehack? The control and graphics updates are really good.
Haven’t tried that, no. Not sure I would be very interested in the control hack part of it though, I don’t really like mouse/keyboard controls.
Also, I think stuff like ripping the shields off pirates in MP3 feels quite satisfying.
I play it on the Steam Deck with dual-stick controls (and a little bit of gyroscope aiming), it feels pretty natural
