Right now I am happy I got this one, and I don't want to spoil the fun but the game will not sell as much as Nintendo hopes so they will focus on prime 4, after that no guarantee for another 2D metroid

Yeah. It should have been saved for a console launch. As good as it is, it's going to get lost in the shuffle of other big games and the Switch. Plus I think the price is a little much. You can get more "cutting edge" games for much more powerful hardware with $40. I love it so far but this game is kinda set up for failure.

Really? I mean I don't expect huge numbers and I agree that it could do better on Switch but I really doubt this game is gonna be a failure on Europe and specially NA, do we have any numbers pointing to that?
