The 3D metroid games always seem to punch well above their hardware spec thanks to the amazing coders of the studio behind it. I guess some of the video at the beginning was pre-rendered and that was the most impressive bit but you used to get that on PS3 as well thanks to its huge amount of optical storage. You would get an amazing 1080p pre-rendered sequence with 7.1 surround sound and then into the game not so great (depending on game). I've never thought of Metroid games as realistic graphics more focused on beautiful graphics within the spec of the hardware. I still feel the original PS4 punches above this in its very best titles visually technically. I'm certainly not saying the PS4 is as capable as Switch 2 though just its very best titles which have very high levels of optimisation look nicer. I don't think this Metroid title will be anywhere near the pinnacle of what the Switch 2 will achieve over its lifetime. This is ultimately a cleaned up and higher frame rate and higher resolution version of an original Switch title.
