Are there any other announced 1st party game beside Prime 4?
I think this Direct is to gather all Switch 1 announcement. Next Direct is pure Switch 2 info only.

Just Prime 4 Beyond and Pokémon Legends ZA. Everything else isn't announced yet.

I'm watching it now on YouTube.

Man, those textures in Metroid Prime 4 look weak. Imagine if Nintendo invested in true modern hardware. The art direction is nice, and the game would really benefit from modern graphics. It's sad that Nintendo has its head stuck in the sand with hardware capability. Those textures are just...weak. Yet they'll charge full price for that game well into the life cycle of Switch 2 lol.

And "psychic abilities..." lol. What is it with Nintendo and all the psychic stuff and telekinetic stuff ruining classic franchises like Zelda, and now Metroid? Oh wait, I know...they're out of ideas for compelling and new gameplay mechanics and instead of leaning into what makes those franchises classic...let's make up magic shit to move the game along because fuck it, the consumer will blindly buy it based on brand recognition alone. Demand better and vote with your wallets, Nintendo fans. You're getting hosed.

Prime 4 looked worse than a OG Xbox game

 

[Days like these...]

This post only works if I wasn't the first one in here admitting I was wrong.

No it still works

This is a Metroid direct. All other games and announcements after, will probably not ever live up to the amount of greatness to be witnessed in a few mere hours. It is high time to reflect on past times of hype, and realize, nothing may ever come to close to this again in the history of gaming. 18 years motherfuckers. 18 years. You sons of bitches, the game is here. It's finally fucking here.

METROID PRIME 4: BEYOND
