As awesome as this is, Nintendo better not be using this as thier tactic to satisfy the "Core" crowd. New games please Nintendo not remakes. Even if I am going to by this set.

All Three Critically Acclaimed Games Now Feature Motion Controls with Enhanced Presentation and In-Game Rewards

REDMOND, Wash., May 22, 2009 - Metroid Prime 3: Corruption set a new standard for first-person motion controls in video games. Now it's bringing those controls to the rest of the celebrated series, allowing players to experience the entire Metroid Prime story arc with the peerless precision of the Wii Remote. Nintendo announces Metroid Prime Trilogy, a new premium three-game collection for the Wii console that bundles all three landmark Metroid Prime games onto one disc and revamps the first two installments with intuitive motion controls, wide-screen presentation and other enhancements. Metroid Prime Trilogy will be available exclusively for Wii on Aug. 24 at a suggested retail price of $49.99.

Each game maintains its original storyline and settings, but now Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes let players use their Wii Remote to aim with precision as heroine Samus Aran. Based on the breakthrough control system that debuted in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, these new Wii controls bring an entirely new level of immersion and freedom to these milestone games.

"Metroid Prime Trilogy puts the best first-person adventures all in one place, with a host of new additions that make these three timeless titles more engaging than ever," said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America's executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. "A great deal of care and detail has gone into Metroid Prime Trilogy, providing longtime fans with new ways to experience the games they love."

All three games now reside on a single disc. Players can access the game they want from a unified main menu that ties together all three adventures. Through a new unlockables system, players can gain access to in-game rewards such as music and artwork by accomplishing objectives across all three games.

Metroid Prime Trilogy was developed by Retro Studios and Nintendo, the same developers that created the original games for the Nintendo GameCube and Wii systems.

Remember that Wii features parental controls that let adults manage the content their children can access. For more information about this and other Wii features, visit Wii.com.

I'm glad to see that their offering the entire trilogy on a single disc with updated controls, but I agree with you Triz. I'm hoping we really get a number of good games with us "core" gamers in mind (man I hate using that term, but have to for lack of another). I guess we'll just have to wait for E3 huh?

Thankfully this wasn't the big thing at E3, but rather more of a snack to tide us over.

The game definitely satisfied my Metroid craving. Metroid has been my favorite gaming series of all time since the 80's. And the first 2 prime games with Woo modded controls felt like playing them for the first time, they really did an amazing job.

I just had this delivered from amazon for the sweet price of $27 bucks. I look forward to revisiting the first, and experienceing the 2nd for the first time. ANd then giving the 3rd another chance as I never really gave it a chance.
