In North America, the game was released in a "collector's edition" steel case, featuring art of [[Samus Aran|Samus]] in the [[Varia Suit]] and [[Dark Suit]]. Other regions saw the release of a standard plastic case featuring the same artwork. The case contains a booklet providing a brief overview of the ''Prime'' trilogy's plot, as well as several pages of new concept art and beta images from the games' production process.

''Metroid Prime: Trilogy'''s main menu is designed to resemble the inner structure of Samus's [[Arm Cannon]]. When players decide which of the ''Prime'' games they wish to play, the view zooms out rapidly to show Samus's current appearance in the relevant game (e.g. if Samus is wearing the [[Light Suit]] in ''Echoes'', she will be clad in the suit in the menu), after which point she fires her [[beam]]. Players can also purchase bonuses with the credits they earn while playing the games.
