Title: Go Get Metroid Prime Trilogy
Post by: Macawmoses on January 10, 2010, 02:21:49 PM
Nintendo is discontinuing its production of it D:

Plus, quite frankly, it's a huge bargain. The only 10/10 game of 09, for me.

So run off children.

Why?

It isn't a profitable game. People aren't buying it because:

A)Most of the Wii-owner base has no idea what Metroid is and wouldn't be interested anyways.
B)Most of the installed Metroid fanbase already has all 3 games, such as myself.

There are probably other reasons, but I could have told you from the start it wouldn't sell well.

I never got it since I already have all three. Couldn't care less about the Wii controls on Prime and Echoes.

Or, y'know, they said it was limited edition./

The graphical updates in the first two are nice.

I saw this on Kotaku and now I want it.  My mom wants me to think about it before spending my money on something I want spur of the moment.  How much is it anyway?

Full price. But consider that if you don't own MP3, you're getting it at normal price, and two games for free.

That's essentially my post. I've searched for two years, and still have not found a good copy of Path of Radiance.

God. Freaking. Dammit.

I don't get why they are killing some of those off. Sure, BWii and MSC are both waaaay gone in terms of popularity. But Shake It!...no.

I'm suprised at them taking out MPT and Shake It. Well, maybe not shake It as much. But MPT has had less than a year.

Again, I seem to recall them saying it was a Limited Time only thing. However, I wish they took the special bonuses away and not the disc.

Well, most of them actually make sense after relooking at it, especially with Wii Fit Plus and the likes.

My main problem just comes from having to go buy Radiant Dawn and Path of Radiance within two weeks. Go figure.
