or else you will DIE Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 (edited) But that would be pointless. They'd be rehashing the same game twice. And that would just open up the road to more of your chronic moaning. why would i want to buy 2 and 3 again when i just want a copy of the updated first one? america sold the first 2 separately. we should too. thats NEVER EVER the case though Edited May 22, 2009 by or else you will DIE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Sell them all and... ... ... nothing. Just sell them all. That's what should happen with the DKC Trilogy... Anyway if (when) I get a new Wii, this will be a definite purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.C.G Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 That's what should happen with the DKC Trilogy... Aww now that's just being mean :P hehe both trilogies deserve their credit where it's due Imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowV7 Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I was swithering whether to get the Primes on the NPC, but I think this has sold it for me. I mainly see this as me getting MP 1 and 2, with 3 as a bonus. Still, with some improvements aside form the controls, I don't feel too bad owning two of the same game.

Emasher Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I don't own and have never played 2, and I never finished the first one, so I think I might buy this, especially for the multiplayer. I imagine that will be brilliant with the new controls. Shame its not online, but its better than nothing. Perhaps if we're lucky they'll throw in some maps from Prime 3.

dwarf Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Best to worst: Metroid Prime > Echoes > Corruption Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STOOPIDDITTIES Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I own all three but will likely just buy this, sell 3 and keep the other 2 in case I ever want to play with the other controls :P The lack of online support is really bugging me though. It really would have been the icing on an already delicious cake. Makes you wonder how good Retro would have made it too. But one can only dream...

D_prOdigy Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Best to worst:Metroid Prime > Echoes > Corruption I think I agree with you today, but would have a completely different opinion on another day. They're all so awesome. And I'm not ashamed to say I love Echoes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kav Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Day one purchase, absolutely, totally and definitely a day one purchase! Prime > Corruption > Echoes for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emasher Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I'm thinking this means we don't get a new game from Retro anytime soon then. And if they didn't reveal this at E3, perhaps it means they've got enough stuff at E3. If it was a year like last year again, I would assume they would save this for E3 so they could show something.

Ike Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I liked Echoes. It was the first metroid game I completed 100% (or 200%). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Captain Falcon Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Excellent news indeed. Out of interest, has anyone here played the NPC version of the first MP? Whilst Corruption's control scheme is definitely the best, the game was also designed to make use it of it - I wonder how it feels playing through the other games with it and as to just how much more it brings to the table.

Jonnas Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I'm excited with these news I suppose I don't have to buy MP3, now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePigMarcher Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Must have purchase for me also, seeing as I was intending to re-purchase the first two games anyway. I loved Prime, never really got on with Echoes but always intended to give it another chance, and I feel that Corruption is arguably still the best game on Wii.

dazzybee Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Just realised this will be the title Matt C was saying the Nintendo hardcore would "appreciate" isn't it? Oh my god it is isn't... effing hell!! It's good because it's cheap, but it isn't that good news for hardcore gamers because hardcore gamers will have played and completed the three games anyway if they were interested in the series! (most of them). The slow feeling of dread is drawing near as E3 approaches....are we going to have a winter of Wii Fit Plus and Pikmin 3?!??!! *I'd be pretty excited about those 2 games, but it's not enough...especially after last year* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emasher Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Good chance this was Matt's surprise. I do think however that Nintendo will have something else. People don't seem to understand how the development works with the Wii Prefix titles. They're all done by EAD 2. EAD 2 also did Animal Crossing. There are tons of other Nintendo teams, they all obviously have some sort of projects in the works. They're not just sitting their playing Brawl/Mario Kart.

Retro_Link Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Seeing as I loved Prime, gave up on Echoes half way through and am yet to play MP3, think I'll prob get this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zell Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 You know what... Nintendo have tempted me. It is one hell of a bundle. I do own all three however, and may just be instead tempted to play through all three again when I come back from uni. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcj metroid Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 but hey what about the multiplayer is metroid prime 2? that with prime 3 controls would be awesome.. the main problem with it was that nobody knew how to control the fucking thing on gamecube that you played? more levels would be awesome this is actually an awesome annoucement and it WASNT expected.. nobody saw this coming.
