Bro it’ll sell more units than the entire prime franchise combined which Hollow Knight already did. Counting prime 1 remaster all 5 games will be like 10m life to date.

The more damning thing is that it’ll probably sell more on Switch 1-2 than Prime 4 & remastered combined lmao

jfc it’s true. I get mixed up by the internet sometimes - you would think Metroid is this iconic franchise with widespread cultural penetration from listening to Losers but reality shows us that there are 80000000k people out there you will never talk to or know about that buy Animal Crossing and that’s that.

Metroid is a prestige franchise for Nintendo or like a halo car like an Audi R8, it helps make the brand look less Losery and kiddie.

Like FF7 for PS1 sold like 3m copies in the west, roughly what Prime 1 sold for GameCube, but both just had much much bigger implications for the brand than their sales indicated. Seeing FF7 graphics in commercials would cause westerners to excitedly run out and buy a PS1….. with Jet Moto, Twisted Metal, and NFL Gameday 😎 . Prime made GameCube look like less of a Low Loser machine and it’s an fps and Samus looks like master chief. The fanboys, including the journalists, were like “THANK YOU JFC 9.9/10”
