Quite odd that this is supposed to come to Switch just about when the next console will probably release. I wonder whether this will be the switchover (ha!) title akin to Twilight Princess or Breath of the Wild.

FINALLY!

Just wish we could use Wii controls. That was the best way to play prime. The switch remaster was okay, but not as good.

Prime is why Nintendo needs to embrace VR.

I feel like I'm the only one who prefers the original, gamecube controls. Playing through the switch remake, I played with the new controls for, like, 10 minutes before switching to the original control scheme and playing the rest of the game with it.

Switch remaster has a motion controls option. I quite like it. Is that comparable to how it played on the Wii?

Some serious halo vibes. Are all the prime games like that?

Visually maybe but not gameplay wise. They are very much Metroidvanias (that genre isn't called that by chance) where you collect gear to open up the maps more and more and shoot aliens on the way.

I really loved Prime 3 on the Wii. One of the few shooters that played well on there. I got the trilogy when that was ported but got stuck somewhere in the first game. Was too proud to look up a walkthrough.

I can't believe this is a real game I might get to play one day. The trailer doesn't even look that good, I'm just excited the project survived.
