Nintendo continues to drag its feet on an official response about Metroid Prime Trilogy's retail status, though online retailer Amazon tells Joystiq that the game has been discontinued. According to a representative from the online retailer: "Per Nintendo, we will no longer be offering Metroid Prime Trilogy at this time." Requests for comment from other retailers were not returned.
The Nerd Stash: "Looking to make some quick cash? Have some old Wii games lying around? Well, why not take a gander at our list of rarest Nintendo Wii games?"
Players jumping into the series before Metroid Prime 4 releases need access to the entire trilogy on the Switch, not just Metroid Prime Remastered.
Theyre gonna pull some BS, just watch. Im betting 1 and 2 will be sold individually then 3 will be a part of a trilogy pack.
I don't know why everybody is praising Nintendo for remastering Prime1 when they became silent radio on Prime4.
As much as I can see the game looking better it's still played exactly like the Metroid prime 1 on Gamecube or the Trilogy version that I also own on Wiiu (It's the Wii version but it was made a Wiiu title)
but that would be expected to cost less and nintendo doesn't like things costing less
especially when people keep supporting that anyway
Metroid fans for years: "we want prime remastered."
Metroid fans after getting what they want: "yeah.... It's ok but where's the rest"
Alex DS. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "It's practically expected that every major game franchise eventually gets a compilation that collects the best (or just a ton) of games in one convenient package. And that's what we're looking at in today's top 10, the very best video game compilations ever!"
Game Cube's Legend of Zelda Collectors Edition.---Zelda, Zelda 2, Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask.
Ironically the company that have sold a lot of hardware is the one that have no interest on create something unique. And the top of that they cancel good games.I hope nintendo learn a lesson the hard way.
It was marketed as a collector's edition. And Nintendo said on launch it "would be limited availability."

I don't know why people are freakin' out on it. Everyone who paid attention knew about it.
This was a game for the Prime junkies (like me) out there. People who already blasted through the GC games but aren't Retro fanboys probably aren't willing to fork out $50 for the game. The sales show it, too -- it's a "greatest hits"-type of release, and it is a sub 500K seller. It was narrowly targeted as fan service to a very specific audience.
I'm going to buy a copy right now. Might even buy TWO so I keep one closed and have it as a collectors item!
I actually bought my copy the day I heard the news. Glad I did too.
I got mine back on release, along with the T-shirt and poster. Probably wont get rid of my copy, ever. Best Nintendo purchase I've made in a very long time.
