-Price is $49,95
-Release date is August 24
-All 3 games on 1 disc
-Wiimote controls for Metroid Prime 1 and 2
-16:9 widescreen support
-Added bloom
-Doors open faster and faster load times
-You can pick up medals which you can buy stuff with. (like the OST of the game)

Since I only have the third game and not the first and second one, I'll probably get this.

I lost my copies of Prime 1 and 2, and the Wii-controls for the first two interest me muchly. Will get.

At least they're packaging them together instead of selling it separately which Nintendo would totally do.

Joshi · « **Reply #5 on:** May 22, 2009, 08:03:00 PM »

Which Nintendo IS doing in Japan.

Thanks for doin' us a solid, NoA.

I never got any of the Primes because I hated the controls in Prime 1 and didn't wanna drop in at 3 so maybe I'll pick this up

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU--

I'll probably buy this

Me too, although I have all three games, it'll be tempting to play through the first two with the new controls. Also, the box for the set looks pretty slick. Its apprently 3 separate discs in a fold out DVD box set.

It would be nice to give the game another chance. I got lost in Metroid Prime, and since the game is open-ended it wasn't useful roaming around a large FAQ for where I was supposed to go, then I lost the memory card (which included saves for a bunch of other GC games) so it wound up being one of many games in the GC era I spent money on and never finished.

??

That three disc set was a fan mock up. The real deal should be the one disc. I wish this was closer to $30 or less, since I own perfectly working copies of Prime and Corruption. The Metal Gear Solid Essential Collection somehow got away with being $20, though I suppose none of those games were updated in any way (and the extra disc from Subsistence was missing).

Edit:
I do wonder what kind of trade in value I could get for Corruption at GS. If it was like $25 it'd pry be worth it. Knowing GS I'd be lucky to get even $5 for the original Prime.

Might get this. I have all three, but I'm nowhere in 3, halfway through 2, and most of the way through 1. I just haven't played in YEARS.

3 was the only game of the series I liked, largely in part to the improved controls. So I'll probably purchase.

NOW WHERE THE HELL IS METROID DREAD?

It's time to kick ass and get powerups.

And I've lost all my powerups.

James · « **Reply #15 on:** May 23, 2009, 01:25:15 PM »

On the subject of unlockables, I wonder if they'll use the medal system to unlock all the goodies that were already in MP1&2.

Also, if they brought back MP2 multiplayer, and made it enjoyable and online-compatible, that'd be very awesome.

Joshi · « **Reply #16 on:** May 23, 2009, 03:17:24 PM »

The linked articles cover both of those subjects.

as somebody who never got around to getting these the first time, yet retaining a deep passion for super metroid, this appeals to me
