If you check out the Nintendo website, you'll see the placeholder image for the Metroid Prime Trilogy is a simple black box with the logo (and it clearly says "TEMP" in great big letters). Gamefly has something that looks a bit different though: a background design and an orange bar that says "Collector's Edition" on it. Is this the actual cover of the upcoming game?
Not that it matters, really: the box could be black, it could be the image above, and it could be a pictoral of flying unicorns wearing Dick Nixon masks and we'd still want to buy it. It's delicious Metroid! And it allows you to play all three games with the Wiimote and nunchuk! By the way, the Nintendo website has some screens too, should you want to see what they look like. The Trilogy edition comes on out August 24th.

That's true, but the way you played the GameCube games was unlike any other FPS. In fact, I still don't consider the Prime series to be shooters.
By the way, playing with the old playstyle feels horrible. I love those games but the controls worked like that because that's what was best at the time. Prime 3 improved the controls and I might just have to buy the collection so I won't feel weird playing 1 and 2. Free-Aim is better than Locked-Aim.
Holy shit, I want that.
That's an awesome design. Holy damn. I wish it wasn't a mockup.
FFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCC...
While I do agree that box is the most amazing thing to ever grace the front of a video game, it wouldn't make sense, due to the fact that all 3 games will be on a single DVD and selectable through a menu system. Though i wouldn't complain if those 2 other discs were extra features...
IN EUROPE AS WELL?! goddammit, there are way too many games I have to buy...
and OMFG @ Monodi
