Nintendo should release Metroid Prime Anniversary in their launch linup.

Critically acclaimed as a top 10 game of all time, top 3 in many polls.

Don't change a thing, just make it 1080p and have Super Metroid be unlockable when you beat the game.

What could be the downside of this? It WILL sell, I get a chance to have a cloth patch included in the collectors edition(:D) and it will set up the 20th Anniversary Super Metroid to come in 2014. Also it would only take them a couple months to throw this together, what's not to like?

It's a win-win

Since they released the collection on Wii not too long ago, I doubt it.

why not make a new metriod :O with online nvm if single player going to end up screw than no

Halo CE sold well, I'm willing to bet MP in HD will do much better. Plus Super Metroid on that controller would be amazing.

Nintendo rereleases games about as often as any other developer. But only a few years later? I'm not seeing it.

A new Metroid? I could see that. If only Other M hadn't received such a mixed reception. Wouldn't surprise me to see the series placed on the backburner for a while.

I would rather have a Metroid that is similar to super Metroid. (You know extremley free form and non linear as hell.) I loved Metroid Fusion but after playing Super Metroid I realize how amazing Metroid Fusion could have been.

I honestly don't know. They're both great in their own ways. But I liked the non linearity of Super. I still love Fusion though. It was one of my favorites as a kid.

I love Fusion, don't get me wrong. I just wish it could have been free form like SM the whole way through. Haven't played Other M yet, I have so many games to play.

After you discover the "secret" of the station, and before the final boss fight, they give you full reign to explore a la Super, and some of the items are hidden in ways that put Super to shame. Granted, the amount of exploration up to that point is laughable, and Super offers incredible non-linearity all throughout, there is a part of me that loves Fusion as much as Super, just for that brief period at the end. Then there is also Other M after that joke of a final boss. That was fantastic as well.foxhound_fox

I love both Super and Fusion, but prefer playing through Fusion more because of the tightness of the controls.

In Super, Samus was very... what's the word? Floaty? Something about her movements really made it a less enjoyable game. I do prefer Super's non-linearity, though.

Given that it is Metroid's 25th anniversary next year (in NA, where the series is popular) I damn well hope they do something. However, something to do with Super Metroid and the future of the series is far more important than an up-res of a game released twice already.foxhound_fox

That would be awesome and would make me buy the Wii U day one. Of course they need to through the GBA games on the collection too, now you would be talking about a money maker.

I rather they'd just make a new one since there's already one on the Wii.

I'd rather just have a new Metroid game, unless the package includes a lot of nice collector's items. :P

Nintendo doesn't know how to do anniversaries. They blew it with Mario and Zelda, so I see no reason to expect anything cool like that.

It's a win-win

1. It's bad enough the Wii U is getting called a port machine

2. There are quite a few Metroid fans who HATE the Metroid Prime series as much as Mortal Kombat fans hate MK4, Deadly Alliance, Deception, Armageddon, and MK vs DC as well as Sonic fans hate Adventure (1 and 2), Heroes, Shadow, Sonic 06, Colors, and Generations

3. They'll release the censored version of Prime 3 (though this reason isn't that big, just thought I'd point that out because of Prime Trilogy)

And there is another reason I'm pretty sure everyone knows about already, so I won't repeat myself.

Metroid Prime sold very well for a Gamecube game. Plus it's near perfect.

Really? Looks like you weren't around with the Halo Vs. MP Vs. Killzone and Haze thread back in the day. Lucky you.Pro-Gear-Spec

I'm surprised you were, considering I have about 1000x more posts than you....:P

Nintendo already rereleased the trilogy here in the US with a shiny case, a few graphical changes and a ton of unlockables. I really doubt it will happen. It makes more sense for them to work on a new metroid that uses Wii U's full power.

I just wish I could find a copy of prime trilogy...darkspineslayer

You MIGHT be able to find it used. The problem with that is, Gamestop charges like $70 for it. I wish I had grabbed some copies when it was $30.

Maybe as a Download Games on Demand Title or something like that.

Otherwise you missed your chance when Nintendo released Trilogy on the Wii.
