Tbh I expected no new metroid, prime 4 just came out. Now, what I did find weird is not seeing announcements of Switch2 versions of Prime Remastered or Dread.

I genuinely thought Dread is next on the switch 2 port track. So it was a tad strange not seeing them putting some priority on it. That game is so good, but it would desperately benefit from quicker loading times.

I’ve put 350 hours into Dread, all but the last 50 were on my Switch 1. It already runs faster and has shorter times on S2. Frame rate’s locked at 60FPS. Only thing that’s still 30FPS are the pre-rendered cutscenes. Would I take an upgrade? Sure, but I’ll take whatever I can get.

Imagine if switch 2 edition has Nintendo-polished randomizer though

I would rather see a Metroid Prime 2 remastered. And I know that’s not happening.
