The Metroid Prime remaster is the most beautiful game I've ever seen? How do they do it.

That’s how it was back on the GameCube. poo poo still holds up. It’s so amazing and I’m in love all over again.

The prime remaster looks good but the original nailed it hard enough that I might prefer that in highres. 6th gen nostalgia is in play there though

Looks loving awesome on the OLED. Still looks great and runs smooth on a 55” display too.

Dual stick controls with gyro aiming looks to be the best setting.

I don't think most people differentiate between remake and remaster, but to me a remake is what they did with Zero Mission or Samus Returns

The original Metroid prime was clunky that’s just what is was. It’s not that anymore and hasn’t been for a bit so no real point in pretending otherwise

I've never played Metroid Prime, so I'm excited to finally be able to experience it.

I'm also excited to play the Minish Cap again too. That was one of my favorite games on the GBA and a great Zelda game with a cute art style.

I've been asking for this for like several months in Discord and the dream is real



Hopefully with it being so cheap and a ton of Vtubers playing it last season, Konami will realize there's a market in the U.S. for the full game modes with the RPG and visual novel campaign stuff, but this has made my night already.

It’s barebones but plays so smoothly

Regarding the BK1+2 Remaster:

quote:

Q. What enhancements were made to this version of the game?
The visual quality of the game has been improved, including the UI and graphics for the main characters and objects in the field.

In addition to stabilizing the frame rate, "Baten Kaitos I & II HD Remaster” introduces new features such as encounters-off, auto-battle, skip cutscenes, and auto-save to make it even more accessible to new players

Also confirms no new content and will have Japanese-only VO, which is a big surprise and not an unwelcome one

I started playing Gargoyle's Quest because it's one of my favorite GB games still. Then after 20 minutes of not using rewind I remembered how the game hates you and wants to waste your time (don't get HP back when you exit a level, no way to just drop down from a wall grab) and embraced it.

Would have anyway, just forgot that the game hated you from the very start :love:

Press and hold power button so you can reset the Switch (not sleep mode) . Everything showed up for me after that.

Man, that's kind of a bummer. The weird-rear end voice acting with the terrible filter that is eventually explained in-game fit the vibe.

Extremely great Direct. The Layton revival and Ghost Trick remake are my highlights.

Come to think of it. It's kind of weird they didn't mention theaterythmn. I have a feeling it's going to sell a ton either way, but you would have thought they would have popped it into the sizzle reel or something

Still waiting for February 16th with anticipation, I actually picked up Dragon quest theater rhythm on my 3DS because the demo for final bar is just not satiating the cravings

Dragon quest theater rhythm is pretty awesome, but the overall song selection is a little anemic. Still a ton of fun
