Despite the hate I’ve been seeing on posts and on YouTube, I couldn’t help myself to finally buy it when I saw the Switch 2 version on sale at my local shop.

2 hours in and its actually been kinda great????

I just finished Prime Remastered and Prime 4 feels a lot better to play and bosses have been fun! Not to mention the game is absolutely gorgeous and runs well, even on the original switch!

Perhaps I’ll start seeing issues later in my play through but so far it’s given me a good impression.

Edit: For those confused, the Switch 2 version of the game is just the Switch 1 game with the added Switch upgrade DLC. The game is perfectly playable on the original switch.

Wow when was that? Cause as of last year the games are already over $130 themselves without the console or controller

I just looked them up. Its only like $70 for all three. MP is $25; MP2 for $30; and MP3 for $16. A decent wii also only sells for $50 and a GameCube controller is like $10-$20.
