![]() ![]() ![]() I own a copy of the Metroid Prime Trilogy and will buy it again when (or when) it comes to the Switch. Also, it should go without saying that I’m not advocating emulating games you haven’t bought. It should be noted that EmuDeck does not provide individual game ROMs or BIOS files You must obtain these yourself. The site has helpful written and video instructions on how to load it on SteamOS, and within minutes you can switch which consoles you want to emulate. Playing these games on Steam Deck is made possible by a free app called EmuDeck, which you need to download to the handheld via desktop mode. It even added really nice cover art to the Steam Deck game dashboard to match my other PC games. Not to mention that it’s incredible that I can play a motion-controlled Wii game like a modern dual-stick console shooter without getting lost in the settings – testament to the modders who, there I am sure, have worked very hard to streamline the heck out. ![]() Getting the three-game collection for Wii up and running was a surprisingly easy and quick process, and it requires very little emulator experience. After all, I own a Steam deck that seems to be just as good at emulating non-PC games as many PC titles. Nintendo did nothing of the kind that day, the 20th birthday of Metroid Prime, the timeless modernization of the series that turned it into a first-person shooter. Nevertheless, I was hoping that on November 18th there would be a surprise version of the Switch Metroid Prime Trilogy. ![]() Personally I’ll be revisiting the franchise with PrimeHack because I don’t feel like waiting on the other two games to be remastered and sold for another $40 each.If there were gamer imperatives not to expect too much from Nintendo, it would likely be chiseled at. PrimeHack leverages the Wii motion control aim for the three games and turns them into joystick/mouse aiming to make the game feel at home on a PC. Metroid Prime Remastered review - a cracking upgrade of a sci-fi classic. PrimeHack is a specialized fork of Dolphin dedicated to running the Metroid Prime Trilogy, the Wii collection of all three games on one disc. Of course you could’ve played the original releases of Metroid Prime, Prime 2, and Prime 3 in the GameCube/Wii emulator Dolphin or just gone with one of the best experiences which is PrimeHack. Steam Deck users didn’t have to wait for this albeit solid looking remaster to play Metroid however. I have no doubt both emulators will run the game flawlessly in a couple of weeks at the worst, giving Metroid fans another way to enjoy Nintendo’s most beloved shooters. The devs of Ryujinx work fast, though, as they already pushed out an update that addressed Metroid Prime Remastered crashing in the 1.1.614 release. Textures were missing with Samus and her ship, but at least framerates were more consistent at 60. Not the best start but Ryujinx had better luck with framerate at the cost of visual accuracy. While Yuzu had no mention of visual glitches, it did had framerate issues, fluctuating wildly between 60 and 30 depending if the camera is third or first person respectively. Linux Gaming Central’s Mark Dougherty bared the burden of testing the GameCube’s highest rated game in both emulators for a full report. The remaster currently doesn’t run flawlessly on either Yuzu or Ryujinx, but it’s a promising start for less than 24 hours after release. While the game released digitally yesterday, there will be a physical release later this month, both priced at $40. The remaster boasts enhanced visuals and sounds (specifically it looks like HD textures and new models to go along with some added post-processing), modern FPS controls along as well as the original controls, and a new casual difficulty option for greater accessibility. unlike the $70 starting price of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom being leaked ahead of the Direct. What I’m really impressed with is how Nintendo managed to release the game with no leaks of the announcement at all. Metroid Prime is the fifth main Metroid game and the first Metroid to use 3D computer graphics and a first-person perspective. It’s rather fitting seeing the last Metroid game, Metroid Dread, was the subject of how quickly the game was playable in 4K in Switch emulators like Yuzu and Ryujinx. Metroid Prime is an action-adventure game developed by Retro Studios and published by Nintendo for the GameCube. Metroid Prime Remastered was shadow-dropped during yesterday’s Nintendo Direct and no more than an hour or two later, people were already emulating the game on their Steam Decks.
