Nintendo Metroid Prime Remastered: Does the legacy continue?

Nintendo was planning to bring a much-anticipated title through a shadow drop this month. There were tons of reports supporting this fact and many thought that they were dropping Advance Wars. But instead, they dropped the remastered version of Metroid Prime.

The Nintendo family got to witness the game around twenty years ago, and it has a soft sport in the heart of many. But was the remaster of this game necessary? And even so, would it live up to its hype?

From reports, Metroid Prime is the game we did not know we deserved. This version is as exhilarating as the OG version and players surely are excited to play the game. Retro Studios have done an incredible job of making the remaster more dynamic and detailed.

A few highlighted factors will surely catch gamers’ eye when they experience this revamped masterpiece. The first point is the detailing that is gone into the game. With the expected locked 60 FPS, the game offers players a more advanced visual appeal. This especially can be seen in the instances where players are out in the rain. The droplets glaze the gun perfectly, giving a real-life feeling to the whole scenario.

Another important aspect that they maintained and rather improved is Samus’ face. When shooting very close to a wall, players got to witness the face of the main protagonist. This was a unique feature that the game offered, especially during those times. The remastered version also follows the same path, and this increases the appeal of the game.

This remaster is what Nintendo really needed at the moment. This would help build up the anticipation around Metroid 4. Furthermore, the decision Nintendo made to give back Retro Games seems like one of the best decisions. Especially as the remastered version is getting rave reviews. Earlier Metroid 4 was under the banners of Bandai Namco Studios.
