Confirmed
In Short: The Verge recently highlighted a significant discount on Metroid Prime Remastered for the Nintendo Switch, reducing its price to $27.99 in digital format.
This deal, available at Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart, is part of a broader sale on Switch games and accessories.
Metroid Prime Remastered is praised for its smart improvements to the original game, making it one of the best remasters available.
Nintendo's recent Direct event also announced new Metroid and Kirby games for the upcoming Switch 2, alongside special editions of other titles.
Eric, a seasoned writer with bylines at Dicebreaker, Pixelkin, Polygon, and more, noted the absence of a new Mario game for Switch 2.
The Direct revealed special Switch 2 versions of Monster Hunter Wilds, Pikmin 4, Persona 4 Revival, The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt Remastered, and Xenoblade Chronicles 3.
Metroid Ravenous, a new 2D action-platformer starring Samus Aran, is set to be a sequel to 2021’s Metroid Dread.

The Samus (Metroid Suit) amiibo will be included in a Special Edition that also comes with a steel game case.
