''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. | ''Metroid Prime: Trilogy'''s main menu is designed to resemble the inner structure of Samus's [[Arm Cannon]].
