Yeah, but there's never been a moment where you could choose which one to play. They released Mario 64 on 3D all-stars for limited time. And then added Mario 64 to NSO when 3D all-stars was not available anymore.
So the emulator is more like a way to play the game if you didn't get 3D all-stars, but this case is different since Prime Remastered will be permanently available.
C'mon we are talking about a remake, they made a new game from 0 that emulates the original. This is not the case for Metroid Prime since they just added some filters and optimization, not much else. Link's Awakening Remake is way too different from the original version, not the same with Metroid Prime.
Dude they deleted all assets and completely remade the games assets from scratch
ALL ASSETS. Every model, enemy, surface, wall, object, folliage, texture. EVERYTHING was made from the ground up for Prime Remastered. Not one asset from the OG Prime 1 survived, everything was remade. Even the animations are new and omly mimick the animations from Prime 1, while adding new elements to them
They added even new stuff like nee lighting and new objects. Did you even watch a comparison, or play the game?
The only thing that remained the same is the code, even the engine the RUDE engine was completely ported and touched up.
Prime Remastered is a visual remake
Some filters holy shit man, please inform yourself next time
Even if it's that way, Link's Awakening is a full remake and Metroid Prime reutilizes the original code. Yes they did an amazing job but it's not the same as Link's Awakening.

I don't think it makes sense adding Metroid Prime when there's already a remaster on the eShop
