Metroid Prime Trilogy is a compilation set of Metroid Prime, Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. It was released for the Wii in North America, Europe, and Australia. It did not see a Japanese release. In that region, Wii de Asobu! Metroid Prime and Wii de Asobu! Metroid Prime 2: Dark Echoes were released instead. Nintendo of America discontinued the game on January 8, 2010.[2] On January 11, 2010, it was reported that Nintendo Australia discontinued the game as well.[3]
Release
In North America the game was released in a "Steelbook" case, featuring art of 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, and several pages of new concept art.
The game's main menu is designed to resemble the inside of Samus's Arm Cannon. When players choose which of the Prime games they wish to play, the view zooms out rapidly to show Samus's appearance in the relevant game. Players can also purchase bonuses with the credits they earn while playing the games.
