Can't wait to buy my LCD Nintendo Swap and then the OLED Swap 4.5 years later!

I guarantee Metroid Prime 4 was delayed to be a launch title for their next console. They saw it was the most talked about title when they unveiled it and moved it to be a system seller.

If they don't release it for the current Switch, I'm going to pirate it. It's 95% of the reason I bought a Switch in the first place.

It'll be on Switch. They already did all the work, developing it for that hardware. They did this a few times with Zelda games.

At this point, yeah, good call.

[–] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca -2 points 10 months ago

They scrapped that project. My hopes are not high.

But will it have joy cons that aren't complete shit?

Cool, so something in line with PS4 hardware?

The Switch launched in 2017 with a bit worse than Xbox One (2013) hardware. The PS4 is almost twice as powerful, and the PS4 Pro is like 4-5x as powerful, so probably something in that range.
