Metroid Prime Trilogy gets a collector's edition

That is freakin' awesome. Must get.

Oh my Metroid! Wow, that sounded less lame in my head. xD

It's totally a must get now. So purdy. =O

I was a bit annoyed that I'd have to buy games that I'd already bought, but this metal case seals the deal.

kiind of want... I never played #2 but I don't really want to own all 3.

Kind of quite do want >_>

But I'm going to hate myself for it.

in b4 Hyper

Freakin sweet man. I'm so getting it! Better be out here sooner than later...

Looks awesome, definite buy now *drools*

Does anyone else think this feels odd? I mean Nintendo are going to quite a lot of effort with this, I'm not saying they don't go to a lot of effort with their games but making an awesome collection like this when they could just do what they are doing with the other GC games is really quite cool. Also it's pretty cheap if I remember correctly. Well done Ninty, i'll get this for collecting purposes probably if it comes out here.

Wow, this was a game that I was pretty much definitely going to get, but this has sealed the deal. Like Zephyr, Nintendo had impressed me with this one.

If Australia doesn't get this, i'm going to be bloody pissed. THIS IS JUST ****ING AWESOME!!

Awesome I am so getting this because I don't have MP1 and MP2 this is the greatest moment in my life. Only effort is required now?

A definite get for me!!! Can't wait!!!

Aside from fantastic value for money, the shock of Nintendo listening to their fans is almost incalculable. It was just over a year ago when the Mock-Up Trilogy Set was revealed, creating a powerful wave of desperation and self-defeat amongst fans, certain that Nintendo would never bother with such an idea. Granted, Nintendo's approach might have been deemed the best method to sell units by the marketing division, but it's the impression of caring and listening that ultimately matters; they are certainly delivering with this package. :)

Personally, I will be picking this up not only for the bonus extras, but also because I have extreme difficulty readjusting to the GCN Controllers for Metroid Prime 1 & 2. Once you've used the Wiimote/Nunchuk scheme, it's basically impossible going back. In the meantime, selling one's current copy of Metroid Prime 3: Corruption before its market value falls through the floor might be a good idea who are interested in picking this up. ;)

You could always resort to importing... providing our exchange rate doesn't take a massive dive in the medium term. :P

So getting this, looks sexy : )

Instant buy! When do they start taking preorders?

Not bad at all. I guess Nintendo are trying to do what Microsoft did with Halo.... :p

Nice tin, but it still not quite as good as the mockup. I suppose a custom case costs a lot more to make than a metal tin which are a fairly ubiquitous these days.

Might pick this up actually... Never played Corruption before and Prime 1 is one of my favorite games of all time...

Extremely. I'm still waiting for the let-down :P

^This.

Could always consider trading MP3:C in to JB hifi for something. But then again, there isnt that much out during that time.... so probably wouldnt be worth it.

Importing will be the way to go, providing our import sites dont get shut down by the governments internet filter. Is it worth the money for NPC and a tin? not sure. I already have all 3 games.

Imagine how pretty the aussie version will be with the rating logo/information violating the cover.

Motherfark, I didn't think of that.

You reckon it'd be printed on the tin? Or there'd be a box inside and it would only be on that?

It'll probably just be a sticker on the front so easily enough removed hopefully. I'm going to trade in MP:3 soon and if it doesn't end up coming out here i'll just buy it again as it can be pretty cheap sometimes, I certainly won't be getting rid of 1 and 2 though.

This looks so awesome.

I never finished Prime, and I haven't even played 2 or 3. And that metal case is just awesome.

I'm a sucker for collectors editions.

Eh, Looks like pretty average imo. Is it just me or is it just a couple of their old wallpapers rehashed and slapped on a tin? :S
Tempted to get the trilogy, but I already have all three... hrmmm :(

That is un freakin believeable

Buying this, looks awesome~

Here's the artbook included in the package.

.....I actually missed mention of the artbook >_>

Kinda wish it had a few more pages than that :P

...And in the USA, if they pre-order the trilogy from Gamestop, they'll also be grabbing themselves a t-shirt and a bloody hawt poster!


BRB America!

Lack of phazon suit = absolute fail. I wouldn't want that poster on my wall anyway!

Because the Phazon Suit was soooo much more symbolic than the Varia Suit, hey?

Yes. Prime 3 has the PED suit (pictured), Prime 2 had the Light Suit (pictured), and Prime 1's piece of awesomeness was the Phazon Suit (???). Way more awesome than the vanilla suit.

But the PED suit doesn't have the Hazard Shield on it to make it 100% awesome. =P

Ah, that's right. Couldn't remember if there was a suit upgrade in that or not.

SEE? It's missing a whole lot of stuff!
