    Special Collectors Edition for Metroid Prime Trilogy

    Nintendo have unveiled the Box for the US release of the Metroid Prime Trilogy compilation, with a Special Edition Tin and Art Booklet.

    Set for US release on the 24th of August, and a couple of weeks after for Europe, Nintendo will be packaging the 3-in-one Wii Disc inside one heck of a sweet cover; three classic games for a regular Wii game's price, and a great box to match!

    The main Cardbard Sleeve for the tin, back and front;




    and the Tin itself;




    No pictures yet of the included Art Book, or news on whether this Edition will make it across the pond, but one has to assume it will given that this version is the only one to see release in the US.

    It's really an easy choice: the one you post is fake. What good is a fake mock-up?

    That's a sweet box. Gorgeous tin. I wonder how expensive the tinned version will be.

    Seriously! Why does everyone like this? It's just fucking awful, and clearly a fake.

    I hope a collector's edition comes out in Europe as well, even though not necessarily the same, cuz' it's not so beautiful...

    But even if we get the same, i'd go for the collector's edition anyway, just for the "collector" factor Smilie.

    Who would pay much for the originals when they can get the improved versions for the Wii?
    But I guess it's worth a try. Smilie Now that you mention it, I might actually try that myself.

    EVERYONE will get the tin. This is not a "special edition" as in The Conduit Gamestop exclusive that only has a limited run. This is a "special edition" in which EVERY COPY of the game will get the splipcase and the Tin since they're trying to get those that already own one, two or all three of these games to purchase them again... and since I sold Prime 1 and 2 about a year ago and still own Prime 3... I guess I'll trade 3 to go into part of the cost of MPT.

    German Amazon - amazon.de
    UK Amazon - amazon.co.uk

    So it really is worldwide - at least Europe gets it, too.
    But look at the price of the German version. 70 EUR. Sorry, but a game for Wii costs 50 EUR. I am not getting it for 70. I will get it for 40 GBP, thou. Thanks for importing...
    Edit: Beware, the price in Germany is laid in by a reseller, not Amazon.de itself. I hope I don\'t have to pay more then 50 bucks for it.


    Hey, Phoenixus. I like the artwork of the fake. It\'s great...

    This is $50 in the US right?


    I agree that the fake version looks better from a stylistic standpoint, but boxarts are meant to sell the game, not be displayed in your ultra-modern, white-walled penthouse loft.
