Metroid Prime 2 Remastered Just Got Way More Likely...

[@rebeccahannah117]

I’m hoping we do get Prime 2 and 3 for Switch! I want to play Prime trilogy before Prime 4 Beyond!

[@GlimmerMythra4]

Me too!! I can’t wait to get into the Metroid series! Also i have to laugh because last comment, we finished our conversation and we had like six or seven people comment under us. Most of them were trollers. Good thing this didn’t happen this time. 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@rebeccahannah117]

@ I really want to play Prime Remastered first, but I’m hoping that 2 and 3 will come then I can play them all! 😊 Yeah, people will do anything to get attention. And ruins everyone’s hype and excitement. 🤦🏽‍♀️ It’s like I want to tell them to just grow a freaking back bone already. 🤣

[@GlimmerMythra4]

@@rebeccahannah117 I can’t wait to see more of Prime 4 first and that will probably really get me into those games. This is what I think of the trollers in the comment section: 🤡🤡🤡

[@winterwolf2164]

It’s almost two years since Prime Remastered was released. I think the impressive reception for that game caused Nintendo to go back to the drawing board when it came to the “port 2 and 3, don’t remaster” speculation. I fully expect both games to get the remaster treatment after all this time-and honestly, they both deserve it.

[@MrVinicius5000]

This all makes a lot of sense in a time line perspective. You launch 2 & 3 to catch people to be prepared and 4 to complete smash the fanbase along side some merch. I hope that metroid 6 will be coming sooner than later 👀

[@LeonSKennedy7777]

Wait a second, what about Metroid Prime 5?? 😳

@@rubemartur8239 oh duh, thanks. I thought they were just using the shortened moniker “Metroid’ for “Metroid Prime” in that context and had some Nintendo-insider news about “Metroid Prime 5” 👀

[@ItApproaches]

I can't see Nintendo/Retro Studios not giving Prime 2 the same quality as Prime 1. Both of them are about quality. Retro doesn't hold back. Prime 2 uses the same assets as Prime 1, so they have the improved ones from Prime 1. There is no reason for Prime 2 NOT to be on par with Prime 1 Remastered. As for Prime 3, as it's a Wii game, they could get away with giving it the Skyward Sword HD treatment. That's what I'm sticking with. I think both will be separate releases. I don't want a double pack. For being a Nintendo physical collector, I want all four Primes with their own box. Lastly, again I will say Prime 4 wont be cross gen.

[@TheAlex3712]

Prime 4 will definitely be cross gen. So many people believed that the game wasn't running on the Switch when they showed the trailer.

[@ItApproaches]

@@TheAlex3712 Bet my life on it being Switch 1 only. Nintendo hates doing cross gen, Retro has never done it before and all logical points show there is no reason to do so.

[@winterwolf2164]

I agree with most of what you’re saying, but this will probably be cross gen so that Nintendo can show off the enhanced backwards compatibility if it’s available for the new Switch (the enhanced part).

[@TheAlex3712]

@@ItApproaches Twilight Princess and Breath of the Wild enters the chat. Nintendo doesn't hate cross gen at all, especially when it comes to a new console release.

[@ItApproaches]

@@TheAlex3712 I get so darn tired of explaining the most obvious logical facts to dumb humans.....TP and BOTW ARE NOT THE SAME SITUATION AT ALL. Both happened cause the former system FAILED and had a small userbase. So they didn't want to lose all that effort on their big franchise, ZELDA. So they gave it a second run. The games were IDENTICLE on both systems for the most part. TP got a Wii version cause the Wii was a new control style, MOTION CONTROLS. So they had to swap the sword to Link's right hand cause most of the world is right handed. They also had to mirror the entire game world. With BOTW again the Wii U FAILED, and the Switch was NOT backwards compatible with Wii U games. So again, a second version was needed to be made to give it a fair shot at making it's money back. Metroid is NOT a system seller, never has been, never will be and that's FINE. No Retro Studios game has EVER had big sales numbers and that's FINE. Cross Gen kills a system, PS5 is useless cause most of it's games are on PS4. Switch didn't fail, Switch 2 has no new controller type, and is backwards compatible since it's still using the same cartridges. Unlike Wii U being discs and Switch not taking discs. So literally logic stomps on your silly little head. If you aren't a smart person, keep your mouth shut. You speaking only spreads brain rot.

[@Frizzly007]

Sounds like it’s going to be a great year for Metroid fans

[@danieldahlberg8986]

Logically, the book is a sign that 2&3 won't be remastered. If they were, they would be in the book??

[@kenji6492]

My irrational wish for Metroid is a Prime Hunters Remastered by Nightdive Studios.

[@o0junglist0o93]

Fooking YES!! Hunters was amazing, spent 100s of hours in the multiplayer and always wished that mainline metroid had multiplayer too

[@kenji6492]

@ Maybe a Prime 2 Remaster will have online

[@optical_flames]

I like Metroid Prime Hunters. That game was great. I really hope Nintendo gets a studio to fully remake or remaster the game. Hunters has potential if they released on the Switch 2 with modern multiplayer.

[@taker610]

Game Awards are only 2 weeks away. Let's hope we get some kind of news but if not well January is getting awfully close too.

[@SD_simma]

Metroid Prime 4 launches in Aug 2025! Book it & Screenshot it!

[@thomasowen887]

Can’t wait to listen to this at work. Keep up the great Metroid work man. ❤

[@mothius238]

I still have hopes that at least Prime 2 get the same treatment of Prime 1 Remaster. Prime 3 could get a more simple remaster/port.

[@evermillcreek]

It would be cool if they show a trailer for 4 at the game awards, and shadow drop 2, announcing 3 for Feb and 4 for April. The art book arriving later would allow for budgeting. If Switch 2 releases early March with a new Mario, and Xenoblade X is shown as enhanced for the new console, that would be a pretty sweet launch schedule. Mario Kart 9 could arrive also in May. Something for everyone!

[@robertkenny1201]

I'd even welcome a HD port of Samus Returns for the Switch at this point.

[@Training_Wheels]

That game was silly. And you're a silly goose for liking it and wanting a remake. Maybe instead you should vacuum your floor or something 🧐

[@robertkenny1201]

[@metroidfighter90]

If we get straight ports and not remasters of 2 and 3 then Nintendo ought to be ashamed of themselves.

[@SacredCharizard]

The most likely rumor going around is they'll get some HD touchups to lighting, textures, and some models but won't be rebuilt from the ground up like Prime 1 was.

[@fiercedeitylink231]

Prediction: prime 2&3 are announced at tga for February and also a short trailer for prime 4 with a summer 2025 release window Also, happy thanksgiving!

[@lpfan4491]

We need Metroid Prime 2. I admit I haven't played it nearly as much as MP1(I actually beat MP1 100% twice and began an unfinished third playthrough, while I somehow didn't beat MP2 once. I need to change that at some point tbh), but it is still very much just more of a good thing.(Very similar basic structure to MP1)

[@js100serch]

It really pisses me off that Nintendo is going to release only 5 copies of that stupid art book and we will have to fight scalpers to get it.

[@platinumuschannel]

No mention of Prime 4, at least not directly. You may see a "going forward with the series" type of segment.

[@broden4838]

I also hope for Star Fox Assault HD

If this gets the same love Metroid Prime got then it’s a must buy for me! I remember starting this game and giving up too soon!

[@platinumuschannel]

Next big presentation could be a dedicated Direct, by the way.

[@Applemangh]

A total remastered would be cool, but I'd be happy if the only change was the controller options. But I'd expect that to be $20 max.

[@AaronEkbladNHL]

@@Applemangh haha...it will be 60

[@Applemangh]

@eyesofnight Lol, maybe. Wasn't Prime remastered just $40? I mean, there's at least some room for hope.

[@lilisaur]

Weird either way I look at it. If 2 or 2+3 is February game, why not move up to December if it was effectively done? Or keep 2 as separate physical release? Not super sales, but probably better potential than Fitness Boxing 3. Though does give credence to why they'd not have this for holiday 2024 and instead make another run of Metroid Prime Remastered which has reappeared on store shelves (in rather large numbers) around October. Maybe the graphics quality of 2/3 isn't really anywhere close to MP1R and Nintendo decided they'd rather show off more copies of MP1R as lead-in to MP4 than an MP2/3 that looks 20 years old. They certainly would want 2 and 3 for the series fans before 4, but as a holiday game prior into next year's bigger title, highlighting the best one of the three available is probably smart. And MP2/3 has always been on my speculative February title list, since it fits the criteria of something not worth announcing prior to Christmas because another game in series is trying to be sold during the holiday rush. However, a holiday discount on MP1R from $40 USD to $30 USD (or even a discount on Metroid Dread) would have been clearer indication of this and a better attempt to grow Metroid fanbase. While $40 is normally a good price for a Switch game, when there are holiday discounts for something like Tears of the Kingdom at same price, and other games for less, MP1R might not sell like Nintendo would want unless they really start publicizing MP4 now. Can't wait until January to start the big push on MP4 if you're trying to sell MP1R for Christmas. This is where the lack of news from Nintendo is possibly doing more harm than good. Kind of surprised we couldn't have gotten a new video of MP4 sometime this month touting 2025 release, and ending with some bits about MP1R available now, MP2 in December, and MP3 in spring. A simple campaign like that would probably boost sales a lot more than keeping quiet on MP4 for so long, putting new copies of MP1R on shelves for the holiday without any advertising or price cuts, and sticking MP 2 and 3 in pocket for what looks like a shadow drop or near-shadow drop.

[@exactly1176]

So hyped for Prime 2 and 3 !!!

[@syn3232]

Don’t do this. Don’t be out here giving me hope. Cause as of now; the main reason I would buy a “switch 2” or a switch predecessor is, if we get Prime 2 and 3 for the switch and Metroid Prime 4 for the new system.

[@syn3232]

I just wonder what the heck is wrong with Nintendo and just holding stuff back.

[@just_delightful]

I think we will get it but it won't be remastered

[@LinouGertz]

Between Donkey Kong and Xenoblade... in february. Like Remastered shadowdropped in February Direct!!? Maybe we get a Direct then. And with Switch 2 rumored to been announced then maybe we get our first Main Direct that is not Switched focused but mainly about Switch 2 games and some titles being cross gen titles and/or some Switch exclusives that have been "left behind" and not fitted to be released earlier. Exciting times!

50 bucks that's $10 more than the Prime Remaster!

[@SD_simma]

At this point they might as well do a 2D remake of SUPER METROID from SNES......😅

[@SD_simma]

Metroid Prime 4 come south Aug 2025! Screenshot it!

[@diegomedina9637]

Not really. If anything this sounds like it would compliment Prime 4 more than anything else.

[@Training_Wheels]

What they should do is release prime 3 remastered first then prime for and then after that prime 2. That would be wicked ultra mega cool.

[@0072.0]

I'm predicting Prime 4 to launch on May 8th, 2025. Why? Think about it. There are 2 Metroid games on Switch. They are Metroid Dread and Metroid Prime Remastered. The former was released on October 8, 2021. The latter came out on February 8, 2023. Do you notice the similarity? BOTH released on the 8th day of their respective months. The ideal time frame for the release of Beyond is within the summer of 2025. Nintendo has recently changed their first party games from a Friday release to a Thursday release. Guess what? May 8, 2025, falls on a Thursday. This aligns quite well. The only thing that could potentially throw off this theory is when a potential 2 & 3 HD release could occur. Nintendo could also just randomly put it somewhere in October. We will soon see.

[@prequeltrilogy5812]

If they just stagger relates for prime 2 and 3 as the original leak stated that’d be perfect and I as a massive prime fan I’d rather them have extra time for 4 to make it more perfect than even they think they can make it. Remaster treatment for 2 and 3, push back prime 4 to 26 and I’ll be very happy

[@malo932]

Not only Metroid Prime 2 and 3, but we will also get a new Starfox Adventures

Starfox adventures needs to happen even Assault for the switch then a sequel to assault for the switch 2 let’s go

[@johnbot64]

Prime 2 is my favorite of the trilogy, so if it got the same remaster treatment as the first game “shut up and take my money”

[@ItApproaches]

How can the book cover 20 years of Prime Development? Prime 1 took 3 years, Prime 2 was done in 2, and Prime 3 was like 2.5-3 years. So that means it was only 7.5 - 8 years total of Prime's 1-3 development....What's the other 12 years???

[@domhardy]

It’s talking about total elapsed time. Not just when the games were in full development.

[@kenji6492]

Prime Remastered.

[@nickwpearce]

@ItApproaches Did common sense just disappear

[@M1XART]

Prime 2 & 3 were using same engine as Prime 1. If engine is ready, then it is possible to make sequel under 12 months.

[@showkneejudgement251]

Im a bit worried though. Shouldn’t they wait till 2026 to release Metroid Prime 4? Just to insure the 2/3 remasters are quality. And to ensure we don’t suffer fatigue in one year from one series. Despite all of us wanting to play all 4 Metroid Prime games next year, I think the hype is blinding us from the fact that we’ll all suffer fatigue before the year is out. I think Prime 2/3 should be released in February. Give is nearly a year to play those games multiple times then do a classic trilogy marathon a few times. Then release Prime 4 Feb 2026.

[@jaretco6423]

I think they should not only get Prime 2 & 3 out before Prime 4, but also an remake of Prime Hunters because that's where Sylux debuted in. How he survived after the end of Hunters and how he got his hands on Metroid.
