It's compatible with all Nintendo Switch consoles, despite the OLED being called out in this title for some reason.

Unless you're adverse to buying used, you'd be better off with the Switch 2 version from GameStop for $30 at this price.

This is the worst Metroid game. Prime Remastered and Dread for the Switch are both excellent and worth playing at full price. This isn't even worth it at bargain bin prices.

Why does it say for OLED model? There aren't games made specifically for OLED model. This is for Switch (or Switch 1/OG Switch as some people call it now)

Well crud, I do like those other two as well. I watched a playthrough and it reminded me of Halo, what didn't you like about it?

I can't speak for Prime 4, but as someone who's GOAT is Super Metroid I really hated Metroid Dread. Way too linear for a Metroid game and very boss rush heavy. Ruined the 2-d franchise. Opinions I guess.

Instead of having one interconnected world, it's smaller disjoint (which aren't even designed all that well themselves) split up by a basically empty and boring hubworld. And you have to spend time driving around collecting resoueces in this boring hubworld to ultimately complete the game. It also has a very annoying Marvel Redditor NPC that kills the atmosphere.
It seems clear to me that bike was just as lazy, tacked on gimmick to try to distract from the terribly designed world. Instead of making one big world, that broke it into chunks and hoped people would so excited over the crappy bike that they would overlook it.

So I got the switch 2 version for $35 when they were having their GameStop pro week. It's not as bad as people make it out to be, but it's definitely not revolutionary by any means. It is a Metroid prime game, and if you're fine with that then you'll probably enjoy this title. The bike is tedious, and no fast travel forces you to back track a lot. I haven't beaten it, but I'm still having a good time with it for what it's worth.

i kinda feel the same way and also the hype i had myself for it (for years i was like wheres metroid 5 at, enough with the prime/3d games) and then being so psyched at the announcement live, what a letdown dread was

Yeah, this not a deal price for this. The Switch 2 version (that includes both S1 & S2 versions) has been $30-35 new, $30 used recently. Why pay an extra $10 for a S1-only version?

Today I learned I can buy a switch 2 game and play it on my switch 1?
