Sounds like both of us have been playing some retro shooters lately, though Metroid is quite a bit different than Goldeneye and Perfect Dark. Have you given the remakester on Switch a try? The new coat of paint is quite amazing.
Now, here's one thing I can't get behind, and that's how every new revision of Prime gets rid of a few more sequence breaks. While I appreciate that CURRENT Nintendo has embraced the sequence break and unintended gameplay, it's unfortunate that the original Prime team saw skilled jumping to platforms that were intended to be out of reach to get certain items early as a "bug" that needed squashing. As a result, while I generally recommend the new Switch version, my personal favorite is still the very first US revision on Gamecube.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
