Metroid Prime Trilogy would be worth revisiting just because it wouldn’t have the motion controls in the third entry. Which would be a genuine gameplay improvement!

Why couldn't they use joycons for motion control?

Wii/U aiming relied on the sensor bar. Someone earlier covered the hassle of drift in Splatoon which has a button to deal with it and the Metroid games do not. They'd have to make changes and test them on top of plain porting.

They’ll definitely address this. I doubt it’ll be a simple port.

Do they? I thought they scaled pretty nicely on 3DS. I’d much prefer them on Switch though.

Ya I think you can do pixel perfect on 3DS with SNES games? Other than the games looking small, it's a great little emulator

BotW but with Spiderman PS4's webslinging (with grapplehooks)

Spider-Man PS4’s web-swinging relies too heavily on scripting and automation and is designed to keep the player from loving up hilariously, meaning that it would never gel with BotW’s world design or general gameplay philosophy.
Give it the web-swinging from Spider-Man 2 The Movie The Game

On what planet would this be a more significant undertaking than completely overhauling gameplay that was designed from the ground up for motion controls so that it works with a traditional dual analogue control scheme

I remember even reviews saying that the motion controls made MP3 way too easy so stick+gyro could be fine on that end.

Yep & Yep. Explaining why it's going to take a minute longer to bake :chef:

Edit: plus you know if/when that happens there's going to be some speedrunner who figures out how to bug the game out while the new Center View option is moving the camera etc

After enough web swings the grapple hook breaks and you have to scrounge around for a new one.

I would be very happy to see a version of MP3 without motion controls, though, I tend to really dislike them when I run into them.

So this is the second UK direct in the last few months but no US ones, right? That is strange to me, I know information is going to get out there regardless of where it's released but still seems strange.
