Metroid Prime Trilogy is currently 10 dollars on the wii u. This is a steal and everyone should buy it.

Mods please sticky vile trolls who don't like metroid please stay out.

Well i'm gonna need to know if it's full of cutscenes and if it's permanently set to pussy mode if i'm going to buy it because those are the two things I look for as a modern gamer. Maybe a giant waypoint arrow that goes across the ground or something. Is there cursing?

It has several difficulty modes for all three games so that anyone can enjoy it. It uses the original control schemes and not the gamepad which may turn off some people.

There is no such thing as pussy mode sometimes people just want to play casually friend.

I bought the steel case version of this game years ago off of a goon but never finished any of the three games on it. I had MP1 and 2 on Gamecube and had a blast with both, I should probably actually go play the Trilogy finally

I'll buy it once the purchase is tied to the account system instead of the console, it's on the eshop so there is no rush :cheers:

I think every console would require you to be on the latest os version to connect to the internet and download a game.

You need a Wiimote, with a nunchuck, but motion plus doesn't matter for this game I don't think as it's all pointer based.

Also the Metroid Primes are incredible with remote and nunchuck anyone whining about requiring the standard Wii and Wii u controller to play this game is a dumb babu

I got this title for free due to my proximity to an idiot who wanted to save $5 on an avatar by having someone else spend $9.95 instead.
Can I buy it even if I don't have a Wii U ????
