Nintendo Switch: Thread 10

[hudson]

To all the kids out there falling over themselves to buy a drink called Prime. I laugh at you from my old man desk and chair. The only Prime that matters has arrived on the Nintendo stor..* whack.. boot boot boot...* (gets beat up by Prime-fuelled kids).

Still... wooooooo! I know what I'm playing tonight!

[hudson]

Am I the only one thinking this should have been the entire trilogy?

Obviously, the plan is to drip feed us these so that the wait for Prime 4 feels less painful. Oh and 35 quid a pop. I will still buy though. Coz im and absolute mess

Unimpressed that the GBA games require more than the regular online pass.

Honestly I really think that whole thing's a bit of a mess. The regular online gameplay for games should be free if they don't have dedicated servers. But then the rest of the industry is getting away with that too so-

Boxarts...

It isn't a great look, but we all knew that this type of thing was going to be the case when Nintendo announced the NSO + Expansion Pack tier.

I agree.

Dual stick control might significantly make Prime easier. Interested to try it out. Given this is Nintendo I would expect any remake of Prime 2 to come for Switch 2 if they do one. To be honest, I'd be fine with that. If Prime 1-3 rushed out and then 4 finally arrived the chances are most would be exhausted on the experience before they even pick up the new game.

MP is one of those remakes where it looks like how you remember it, then the comparison reminds you of the difference. Apparently Retro worked on it themselves

They shipped a game!!

When played on a 20” PVM/BVM over RGB it looks utterly ridiculous. It’s comparatively as smooth as a game running at 165FPS.

I don’t even need this remaster anymore because of it.

[Golgo]

Isn't Prime reckoned to be the best anyway? I've never played it, so I'll nab on physical. Had Prime 3 Corruption on Wii and it wasn't great, tbh. I have no need of a remaster of that.

New Zelda trailer looked good. Glad to see they answered criticisms of the limited enemies in BotW but adding a whole new flying baddie! And nary a Korok in sight.

Never rated prime 3 that highly either, first 2 are where it’s at. Although not sure if I’m gonna pick the remaster up as it’s pretty much the same identical game barring some nicer graphics and I still have the originals so it been portable is the only plus for me.

[hudson]

Same. I love Prime 1. Tried the other 2 and lost interest. I willl give them another go when they re-re-re-drop.

[Neon Ignition]

Prime 1 is best. I enjoyed Prime 3. Prime 2 is distant last

Nintendo says to it's fans not to worry about price increases on software. It's only specifically Zelda fans they want to gouge

My thinking too. It’s the biggest reason for me to jump back in.

[speedlolita]

Just spoke to a lovely lady at Hit.co.uk and she confirmed that it's payment at dispatch.

Zelda ordered (along with Resi 4 REmake for PS5).

Nice!!

Yeah mine prompted for the full amount too. Nothing taken though as you've already confirmed.

[Lebowski]

Prime 1 is best.
I enjoyed Prime 3.
Prime 2 is distant last

almost a haiku

missed the opportunity to frame your post as a rhyme 2-10 must try harder

Prime one is unsurpassed
Prime three is a blast,
Prime two came to fast,
Prime by KSi comes in last.

[Golgo]

Prime is fine.
Two is poo.
Three is wii.
