Metroid Prime 1 is indeed a masterpiece and the transition to Wii is excellent. I have fooled around with a patched Japanese version (the patch unlocks the translation to English) and can't wait for this to come out. If it doesn't come out in Europe that is just... insane. Luckilly, my Wii is modded, but still, what would be the reason NOT to publish it here?

"Metroid Prime 1 is indeed a masterpiece and the transition to Wii is excellent"
Loved part 1 up till the part I believe to be very close to the end where you have to travel upwards for quite a distance, jumping from platform to platform while being attacked by constantly respawning metroids which wouldn't be much of a problem if accidentally jumping against one that was apparently approaching you from the back wouldn't make you drop down all the way. Not fun. But the overall presentation of the game was amazing, especially the sound was truly stunning. And the way you learned about the planet by investigation rather than story cut scenes really contributed to the atmosphere. |

Why do I just know the earliest NOE would give us this game is Oct/Nov? They'll have less games for the Q4 than NOA have so they'll save this game for that time period pobably.

Yeah, the absolute earliest if they haven't said anything yet, that said only a 2-3 month delay is a bit optimistic giving NoE's track record. Hopefully it won't turn into another Paper Mario. :) Mind you, the translation work etc. will have already been done years ago so maybe NoJ just haven't bothered telling them when they'll be getting it yet. NoE are always an afterthought. This is an awesome compilation, I will be trading in my copy of Corruption for this too (normally I'd never trade a game but I don't really need to have two copies of Metroid 3). |

Judging by Punch Out's performance, and the fact most Metroid fans already own these games, I can't see this selling particularly well.
Great idea in theory though, the games are fantastic and a bundle of all three would be a bargain. |

All three Prime games on one disc, all with the awesome Prime 3 control setup? Sold!
Also, I read somewhere that they've also improved the lighting in 1 & 2 by adding the same Bloom lighting as used in Prime 3. If that's true, it should definitely add a bit more atmosphere to the games. God I hope NoE release it over here. |

Well.. Rommors are that Excitebots is canceled here in Europe as well...
If we are not getting Metroid Prime trilogy and Excitebots i just have to chip my wii... Thanks for nothing Nintendo, and do not expect me to import those games.. as I need to save the money for the chip. If the Wii wasn't region locked i would have imported them from the U.S. Well, as i am an old loyal Nintendo gammer since the days of the NES, I will give you time till August to announce these games here. I hope you still care for your loyal European fans, Nintendo... I really do..
