Wasn't Prime Trilogy 30fps?
60

What a disappointment. The Amiibo stuff is BS too.
Passing on it.
Framerate is just as much if not more about responsiveness than what looks better, 60fps literally reduces input latency.
It's a bit disappointing but not a big deal imo, and I doubt Prime 4 will be 30.
Some of you people are weird. Just because Nintendo deigned to give us a Metroid game we can't make any negative comments about it? Lack of 60fps is a legitimate complaint for a series that has generally always had entries at 60fps.
Being disappointed that the game doesn't live up to a series standard is being "impossible to please"? lol okay
I guess pointing out a legitimate flaw is considered whining according to the Nintendo defense force. Its not like the original game ran at 60 or anything.

Before we get into some ridiculous revisionist history, 60 fps has never been a core element of the Metroid franchise.
No one was talking about the fact Metroid Prime ran at 60 fps when it came out, and no one would have batted an eye if it was 30.
Don't label people with a different opinion to yours as a defense force. Some of us just don't think being 30fps decreases the quality of the game.I guess pointing out a legitimate flaw is considered whining according to the Nintendo defense force.

Eh, if I can it doesn't adversely affect me. At least not the types of games I play. I've never made an input and not immediately gotten feedback on screen.
Sometimes I really feel like most people in here derive no joy from playing games

Lmao @ people passing on a 3DS game because its 30fps
I'm 99% sure that the underlying controls and movement are running at 60fps. Everything feels so smooth, way too smooth and responsive for what 30fps normally gives. I am a framerate whore usually because of this reason, and for once it feels good.
It's likely doing what Forza Horizon did.
Not sure I agree with that. I remember a lot of comments specifically about how smooth it ran alongside how great it looked.
Uhh I reviewed it when it came out and 60 FPS was certainly something I brought up considering Halo was big at the time and had massive frame rate issues. That being said, I don't give a shit for Samus Returns
Y'all will really find a way to bitch about everything. The game has outstanding reviews and this is stopping you from playing it? Bye.
Y'all realize there's only like one post in this whole thread that mentions passing on the game because of the framerate, right?Lmao @ people passing on a 3DS game because its 30fps
No one is saying that.
It's just a dumb reason to not buy the game, especially a game we have been clamoring so long for.
Didn't cross my mind for even a second. Categorical non issue, feels just fine.
On New 3DS at least.

My biggest pet peeve is people who think 30fps is a problem.
Your eyes get used to it after like 10 seconds, just play the game instead of complaining.
/oldmanyellsatcloud
People clamouring for another 2D Metroid, we finally get one after 13 long years and now so many not buying it (or claiming they're not, hmmm...) because of the amiibos and frame rate. If this is the last one for a while again then they can't complain.

When the game is still as responsive as ever, it's a silly nitpick that makes people run the other way for no other reason than seeing a number having been trained to panic.
Unbelievable that some people really decide to "pass" on games for such details. Especially when we're talking about a single player-only side-scroller.

Sidescrollers benefit noticeably from a high frame rate, and performance is more deterministic and easier to control in a single player game lol.
Shoulda been on Switch

Side scroller as are the games which usually benefit most from 60fps.No, it just comes off as petty and whiny. It's a sidescroller, and not really about twitch reactions. Even then, a steady 30 is good enough for anything that the game would throw at you. It would make sense if the game was fluctuating a lot, but if it's solid, I can't sympathize with this complaint.
try the games you play at 144fps w/ vsync off and gsync and say again that is the same thing that 30fps w/ vsync
You can't just make that a "rule" and fit every.single.2D.sidescroller in existence inside it.
Oh wait, you can. Well, your loss.
WHO FUCKING CARES !
No they ran around the limitations of the Pal50 standard
Pal was vastly superior to NTSC (better resolution and color rendering) but unfortunately NTSC won.
Pal is actually exactly the same "rate" as movies (well slightly fast as it's 25 instead of 24.xx) and doesn't duplicate frames.
Nintendo and Sega did what they could. Just look at computer ganes on the ST and Amiga to jnderstand than 50 fps was never an issue if you make the game with that reality in mind
Ignoring this fabrication for a moment, my point was not to say that 60fps is absolutely necessary for a good Metroid experience, my point is that there is a Nintendo defense force that is compelled to shit on anyone criticizing Nintendo even when the criticism is legitimate. To the point that we've had folks talking about how Metroid fans are garbage, or don't deserve Nintendo's attention, because they criticized this game or Federation Force.
The fact that you decided to attempt this post with either a lack of knowledge on the commentary surrounding Metroid Prime at the time of release, or with the intent to just outright lie, is exactly the problem.

Yep, and some of the most beloved games on 3DS (and other systems) are 30fps... less in some cases. At the end of the day, people can and will complain about framerate. If everything was a locked 60fps on console, you'd have PCMRs saying that's crap and they should be playing everything at HFR or GTFO, and the cycle continues. Play what you want and focus on enjoyment. They're GAMES. I often see how 30fps actually equates to a "bad/literally unplayable game" to some folks... that's a bit sad to me, and I say this as someone who has a 144Hz G-Sync monitor for my PC games.TBH I don't really care. I enjoy the games I play the way they are now. Fun counts a lot more to me than FPS count.

I am not a metroid fan, i don't even have a 3ds. it is just that threads like this and the responses get on my last nerveImagine having this reaction to someone pointing out that they don't enjoy something about a game.
I really don't get why some people get so upset and defensive when someone points out that they're disappointed by a low framerate. OP is struggling with it, asked if others are too. That's it.
