'''''Metroid Prime''''' (メトロイドプライム, Metoroido Puraimu) is the first game in the ''[[Metroid Prime (series)|Metroid Prime]]'' series, released for the [[Nintendo GameCube]] in November 17, 2002. ''Metroid Prime'' is the first game in the series in 3D and the first ''[[Metroid (series)|Metroid]]'' game released in eight years after [[Super Metroid]]. The game was developed by the Nintendo-owned [[Retro Studios]] and published by [[Nintendo]]. One of the significant new features that the game had, was the use a first-person perspective instead of traditional side-scrolling action. Despite the new perspective, the many differences in gameplay that ''Metroid Prime'' had compared to other first-person shooters made Nintendo officially classify the game as a first-person adventure.
