Nintendo has denied internet reports that the Metroid Prime Trilogy in its entirety is coming to Wii.
According to GoNintendo, a tipster claimed that the computer system of a retailer had a new Wii game listed as 'Metroid Prime Trilogy'.
Internet speculation jumped to the obvious conclusion that Metroid Prime 1, 2 and 3 were being repackaged as one and the GameCube games were being revamped for the console.
But speaking to CVG, Nintendo labelled the rumour as "Purely rumour and speculation."
Imho, theres plenty of games around to be played, about 10 good ones were released over the last 2 months alone, so you've no excuse.
But what kind of person keeps a console that they dont play? Probably the same kind of person who'll moan about something, then say he owns it just to give his point some validity.
10 good ones?
Here are the ones worth buying (and i have and completed)
As I only own one of the Metroid Prime series, I would be very interested in getting the trilogy all with Wii controls, because games like that work best with the Wii controls.
I certainly have no interest in playing games like that with a regular gamepad anymore....

Super Mario Galaxy
Zelda: TP
MK Wii
Thats really about it since the Wii's launch.
Im starting to think about selling it now.
I mean its so cr@p why bother keeping it...
VC retro games are the only reason I've still got a Wii. Decent games = 1, Zelda TP, and I could get the GC version instead.
I dont own a wii yet but i know that Galaxy and Metroid Prime 3 and Resi 4 and No more Heroes and TP and 75% of the virtual console esp Zelda Link To The Past will be getting my money,mos def.

All these people having a Wii. Quit torturing yourselves!! There are plenty of games to enjoy, so quit whining Do yourself a favor and play these:

Totally agree. It's something that really p**ses me off. Every Wii article now has someone moaning about the lack of games. It's pathetic. It has a bigger and better collection than Ps3 certainly and i'd say (even though it was released a year later), it already has a better lot of games than the Xbox 360. You missed out Paper Mario, Zack and Wiki and for new owners, Wii Sports is a great experience.

You must be kidding mate, you had me laughing till I realised you were serious!
1. Metroid is poor value? Its a 30 hour game (so what if your not interested, does not make it bad) 2. Excite truck has amazing controls, (moterstorm makes me wish I was playing Exite truck!) 3. NMH is a good game (check the reviews) 4. PES 2008, You think voice chat is more important than the game itself (Its common knowledge that the PS3/360 versions suck, at least the wii version is original. 5. Call of duty 3 (Actually you are right here, the wii version sucks!
By the way, Galaxy is not just good, Dont be a snooker cue, its in the top 10 games ever. That is not up for argument (I actuallt believe its THE best game EVER!
I wouldn't mind paying for a Metroid Prime Trilogy package. I have the second and final one, but not the first. And anyway Nintendo should do more special edition packages anyway, they simply do not do enough to get the hardcore gamer on their side.
I'm not usually interested in remakes and ports (especially when the originals were released not that long ago), but Metroid Prime 1 and 2 are such good games I might just consider rebuying them for the controls alone. It's all just rumour, however, and I rather wish they would make an all new Metroid instead.

I can't help but notice that the basis of your argument is 'bad' graphics = bad game.
If you seriously believe that, then you are totally missing the point about gameplay when it comes to the Wii.
You will no doubt be much happier playing a super shiny, yet unbelievably brown, generic FPS where you control a lone marine out for revenge against the aliens who killed his wife or something, shouting "ZOMG!! PWNAGE!!" down your voice chat line, with a gamepad that just doesn't work as well as the Wii remote with those kind of games.
I'm not even going to bother with most of your comments because they are just so laughable, but there are some I will question...
Seriously, the 'next gen' versions of Pro Evo are pathetic. It looked like Konami had completely messed up what was a great series, then they released the Wii version. You carry on being frustrated by your players not running into the open space, us Wii owners will be able to have full control over that with every attack. But hey, at least you'll have voice chat on Live...
And if you want to play Bully on XBox, go ahead, just remember to save the game every 30 seconds in case the bugs that aren't present in the Wii version are unleashed...

Was gonna say the exact same thing. Some serious retardation going on there.
Anyway, back on topic.
I'm looking forward to Retro Studios next project immensley. However, as much as I love Metroid, I would rather see them do something totally new, so am kinda glad this rumour got shot down.

Well its the same old stuff as 1 & 2. I dont think controls are that good, The most accurate will always be the Mouse on a PC.
And why no Online?
I would have bought it just for the online but since nintendo though why bother when people will buy it anyway, i then didnt bother...
2. Excite truck has amazing controls, (moterstorm makes me wish I was playing Exite truck!)
Excite Truck handles like crap.
And the Poor Visuals, i mean isnt the Wii MORE powerful than the Gamecube?
I expect something from the graphics side.
And again no online....
3. NMH is a good game (check the reviews)
?

Playing with friends without silly friend codes, chat, Achievments, Graphics, Sound, all these are on the Xbox 360/PS3 version (bar the Achievments).
So why get it on the Wii?
For silly controls?

Ok, now would i rather play Metroid 3 on my PC @ 2560 x 1600 @ 62 FPS with max detail, huge draw distance, Mouse + Keyboard + More Content
OR
Would i want to play Metroid on the Wii with Sh!t graphics, Lots of Jaggy Edges, 480p, Around 30 FPS, Crappy Draw Distance etc?
Now which would you want?
Gears of War 360/PC has excellent gameplay, Excellent Story, Online etc yet it has amazing Visuals.
Its not always Good Graphics = Crap.
Id rather see Nintendo bring out a powerhouse and have amazing sound quality with amazing graphics.
So dont start with "Gameplay over Graphics" because with Wii you have to comprimise but not when it comes to PS3, Xbox 360 or PC.

I would want the one with better gameplay, regardless of the graphics...
Just having good graphics, does not equal good gameplay, in the same way that bad graphics do not equal bad gameplay.
The perfect example of what I'm trying to say is Assassins Creed. Its beautiful, but man is that game boring and repetitive, yet you get people looking at the graphics and saying its the greatest game ever, and thats exactly whats wrong with the games industry and why I have a Wii, because I want to actually enjoy playing the game, not put up with sub-standard games for the sake of shiny graphics...
If you can't understand that, its really your loss as you go through generic brown FPS #474... Have fun.
Mmm. Metroid Prime 1&2 reworked with Wii controls?
Gimmeh gimmeh gimmeh.
wow, some people just buy anything...
Why not just work on Metroid 4 and this time give us online like you should have with metroid 3....
Again my wii is collecting dust after finishing Mario Kart wii within a few days of release....
Not intrested in Brawl Either...
Shiwayb, you poor little monkey. It's obvious from this and all of your other replies that you don't have any idea of what the Metroid Prime series is all about... Have you even played it?
Tacking on an online component? For Metroid Prime? And the point would be...? This ain't a first-person shooter, y'know.
And anyone who's sat and played Metroid Prime 3 would never claim that it would play better with a mouse+keyboard...
Dude, seeing a couple of screenshots of a game doesn't really make you qualified to waste half a day trolling and making ridiculous comments around these parts, y'know?
All these people having a Wii. Quit torturing yourselves!! There are plenty of games to enjoy, so quit whining Do yourself a favor and play these:
The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess Super Mario Galaxy Metroid Prime 3: Corruption Excite Truck No More Heroes Mario Kart Wii Endless Ocean Mario Strikers: Charged PES 2008 Okami Trauma Center
Resident Evil 4 Bully Call of Duty 3
And in the Future:
Super Smash Bros Boom Blox The Blob Day Of Disaster
Jeesh!
Totally agree. It's something that really p**ses me off. Every Wii article now has someone moaning about the lack of games. It's pathetic. It has a bigger and better collection than Ps3 certainly and i'd say (even though it was released a year later), it already has a better lot of games than the Xbox 360. You missed out Paper Mario, Zack and Wiki and for new owners, Wii Sports is a great experience.
Yes, you're right I missed those and probably some more.
This shiwayb guy obviously doesn't know what he's talking about. His poorly grounded arguments are like birds without wings. If he just bothered to be less ignorant and judgemental, a world of fantastic experiences will open up for him. He doing himself a great injustice. Shiwayb you need to expand your horizon a bit. You'll thank me later.
In all of the mentioned Wii-games, the graphics are effective. It a fact that graphics are less important than gameplay. After all it's games that you play and not games you look at. I'm not saying that graphics are not important. The graphics just have to serve gameplay and not the other way around.
I enjoyed Excite Truck a lot. I doesn't look THAT bad. And the races are fast, frantic and competitive. It's not without its flaws though. The multiplayer isn't up there. I don't consider the absence of online-play as a flaw. Although I would have liked it.
Same with COD3 on Wii. Sure the graphics don't compare to the other version on Xbox360 and PS3. But the control works and makes it much more intense. And I also enjoyed the other version a lot.
That's it, I could go on discussing this for hours. But maybe I boring you all. I think I've made my point.
Ok, now would i rather play Metroid 3 on my PC @ 2560 x 1600 @ 62 FPS with max detail, huge draw distance, Mouse + Keyboard + More Content
OR
Would i want to play Metroid on the Wii with Sh!t graphics, Lots of Jaggy Edges, 480p, Around 30 FPS, Crappy Draw Distance etc?
Now which would you want?
I would want the one with better gameplay, regardless of the graphics...
Just having good graphics, does not equal good gameplay, in the same way that bad graphics do not equal bad gameplay.
The perfect example of what I'm trying to say is Assassins Creed. Its beautiful, but man is that game boring and repetitive, yet you get people looking at the graphics and saying its the greatest game ever, and thats exactly whats wrong with the games industry and why I have a Wii, because I want to actually enjoy playing the game, not put up with sub-standard games for the sake of shiny graphics...
If you can't understand that, its really your loss as you go through generic brown FPS #474... Have fun.
Wow, your really stupid.
Who said that if a game looks better they have to sacrifice gameplay?
I mean the 1st option with super graphics, IS THE SAME GAME.
THE SAME EVRYTHING.
Ecept GRAPHICS.
Now id rather play a game with superb graphics rather than not Superb graphics that would make the GameCube look like a super console.
Do everyone here a big favor and get rid of your wii and never moan about it again.
You don't know what Endless Ocean is, and you don't even seem interested in finding out. So you'll be missing out on one of the most unique gaming experiences on ANY console.
Zack & Wiki. Go check the metacritic score. Or any other score on that game. Again a unique game that has to be tried!
Shame on you, you are defenitely not worthy of owning a wii.
People who are incapable of the correct usage of "your" and "you're" have absolutely no right to call other people stupid. (Stupidity +1.)
Who said that if a game looks better they have to sacrifice gameplay?
Reading through this thread, the only person who has mentioned that idea is you. (Stupidity +5.)
I mean the 1st option with super graphics, IS THE SAME GAME.
THE SAME EVRYTHING.
Ecept GRAPHICS.
WRONG.
THE CONTROLS ARE ALSO DIFFERENT.
AND DON'T CAPITALIZE ENTIRE SENTENCES (UNLESS YOU'RE LAMPOONING SOMEONE DOING THE SAME THING)! (Stupidity +10.)
For many (though certainly not all) genres of games, the wiimote offers a far more intuitive, enjoyable, and above all fun experience than a standard gamepad, or indeed keyboard + mouse.
While you may be happy to sacrifice sheer fun for pretty graphics, you need to come to terms with the fact that there are a large number of gamers who are not.
Oh, and it's "except", not "ecept". (Stupidity +1.)
Now id rather play a game with superb graphics rather than not Superb graphics that would make the GameCube look like a super console.
Agreed, as long as the gameplay was equally good in the two versions. More than often, it isn't.
BTW, "I'd", not "id". (Stupidity +2.)
COD4 looks and Plays well.
Stupidity +10000 (+1 for needlessly capitalizing the p in "play", +9999 for stating that COD4 plays well; for someone who bangs on about the PC, you clearly haven't played many PC FPS').
