It was finally announced and released on Switch last week. The question is, how does this classic gaming game hold up? When it first appeared on the GameCube back in 2002, Metroid Prime represented a major change in perspective for Samus Aran, having played side-scrolling Metroid games for years.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7351\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-1.png?resize=1024%2C574&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"574\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-1.png?resize=1024%2C574&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-1.png?resize=300%2C168&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-1.png?resize=768%2C430&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-1.png?resize=1218%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1218w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-1.png?resize=880%2C493&amp;ssl=1 880w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-1.png?w=1422&amp;ssl=1 1422w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It&#8217;s a first-person shooter, swapping out a 2D map for sprawling arrays of interlinked 3D rooms and environments, just as labyrinthine and carefully arranged as any of Samus&#8217; older adventures. Though the story beats are similar (which isn&#8217;t a problem, it&#8217;s a Metroid thing), there&#8217;s some similarities to the beats. As Samus responds to a distress call, she arrives on a space station in orbit fully equipped.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7352\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-2.png?resize=1024%2C575&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-2.png?resize=1024%2C575&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-2.png?resize=300%2C168&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-2.png?resize=768%2C431&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-2.png?resize=1218%2C684&amp;ssl=1 1218w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-2.png?resize=880%2C494&amp;ssl=1 880w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-2.png?w=1416&amp;ssl=1 1416w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As the station explodes, she finds a series of gruesome mutation experiments gone wrong &#8211; and all of her gear is stripped away. Despite the series&#8217; tradition of losing powers, Metroid Prime is really quite open-handed when it comes to getting some of them back. Within an hour, you can find enough upgrades to return the Morph Ball, rockets, and bombs to your arsenal.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7353\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-3.png?resize=1024%2C574&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"574\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-3.png?resize=1024%2C574&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-3.png?resize=300%2C168&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-3.png?resize=768%2C430&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-3.png?resize=1218%2C682&amp;ssl=1 1218w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-3.png?resize=880%2C493&amp;ssl=1 880w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/urpwned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/urpwnd-427-3.png?w=1421&amp;ssl=1 1421w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Metroid Prime story involves a robotic Meta Ridley flying around causing havoc. But it&#8217;s told with a light touch that makes it impressive. Your suit&#8217;s visor lets you scan a range of environmental details. From plant life on the planet you&#8217;re exploring to tablets and wall scratchings, which can give you a much more detailed sense of what&#8217;s actually happening.

The game now looks great on modern hardware. It plays incredibly smoothly whether you go handheld or docked, with its central atmosphere also captured expertly.
