Metroid Prime 4 will be on the OG Switch, so no worry about missing out there. It will probably leak like most Nintendo games have been lately and I'll get to play it early on my modded Switch, even. I think a new 3D Mario is what I'll be missing out on, which will hurt, but not enough that I'll be willing to pay ~~almost~~ over $500 to play it.

Exactly what I was thinking.

I wonder if there’s any chance Nintendo will remaster the other two Metroid Prime games before 4 launches

They do love their shadow drops, but I'm guessing no. Maybe they'll do it for the Switch 2, though - they've pretty much run out of Wii U games to port and will have to re-release older stuff now!
