Im going to buy Metroid Prime Trilogy. My question is, shouldI sellmy copy of Metroid Prime 3now whileMetroid Prime Trilogyis not out.I'm afraid, that since MPT is so cheap, that is will lower the price of MP3.Or should I wait until Christmas, where games sell formore, and faster.

BTW, I'm going to sell it on eBay.

yeah, resale prices always go down when a sequel or in this case, a remake compilation comes out.

Now would be the best time to sell it since resale value will drop significantly once the Trilogy comes out.

Although the retail price is still up there for MP3, take a look at the prices they are going for on ebay. You'll be very lucky if you even got $15 for it. If you think that is a good deal then go for it. Like Sgt_Crow said. Your best bet is to try to find someone who doesn't know better.

Yeah I looked at the prices. 10$ is better than nothing though! If i get the full 15$ i will be happy. Since I am getting Trilogy anywase i have noting to lose, but everything to gain!

Yeah, if you want to sell it you better sell it soon cause when the Trilogy is out, people will go for that instead of MP3.

Metroid Prime, 7 bucks.

Metroid Prime 2, 15 bucks.

No you shouldn't sell it when you can get the other 2 for only 22 bucks.

I sold mine about a month ago at gamecrazy for 8 or 10, i can't remember. Not a lot of dough, but I'm definetely going to buy trilogy, so I had nothing to lose. The only problem now is that I sold it before I beat it (I don't mind starting a new file when I get trilogy since the game is a blast to play). I'm jonesing for Metroid Prime and have to wait for August! Oh well, Super Metroid will have to keep me satisfied till then.

They supported 480p from the start. And if you think Wii controls are worth another 23 dollars minus whatever crap value Gamestop will give you for Metroid Prime 3, then by all means go for it.

Actually you should do what I'm doing. Collect the metroid games (buy a 2nd one for any of the metroid titles that you may want to play). Put them away, still in their protective plastic sleeve somewhere where they won't get wet or damaged by temperature (or relatives). In about 50 years.... nintendo may have stepped away from gaming & your collection could bring in a fortune.

lol, you're carring too MUCH about 23 $
