Replayed this with mouse and keyboard on Dolphin, it's genuinely the best experience in a singleplayer FPS I've ever experienced.
A série Metroid Prime não apenas é uma adaptação extremamente bem feita da série Metroid como, até hoje, foi a única que conseguiu adaptar tão perfeitamente o gênero Metroidvania para o universo 3D primeira pessoa.
Pode ser estranho ou difícil de se acostumar no começo, mas se você é fã de Metroid, você com certeza vai amar os Metroid Primes também. É a perfeita essência da série - Mapas cheios de partes secretas e itens escondidos, upgrades poderosos e úteis, cenários alienígenas e criaturas esquisitas de diferentes tipos - só que em primeira pessoa.
Com isso, não posso deixar de citar aqui o PrimeHack, um mod que trás diversas melhorias aos jogos e torna eles jogáveis no mouse e teclado - O QUE É INCRÍVEL!!! Minha segunda gameplay do jogo foi pelo PrimeHack e, cara, mesmo sendo os mesmos jogos, é uma experiência completamente diferente e MUITO BOA. Sério, joguem com esse mod, é a melhor forma possível de experienciar os Metroid Primes.

Its all 3 Metroid Prime games in one disc. All 3 of them are certified bangers as the kids say.
Excellent trilogy of some of the finest video games I've ever played. I especially love it as a package because each game approaches progression and world design a bit differently, giving them their own strong identity while still being Metroid Prime at their core.
The controls take a steady hand and some getting used to but when you adapt they're perfect! The Wii Remote has the precision of a mouse and keyboard and almost all the buttons easily in reach for making quick actions. It feels like the games were made for this controller, or this controller was made for games like them! Try to use Advanced Sensitivity, it makes turning a lot easier.
My biggest criticisms are with the options and extras. Options are very limited, Metroid Prime Remastered definitely puts this collection to shame with how much customization it gave you. You can't even use a GameCube Controller in this.
The extras are almost good but have weird oddities, like some unlocks costing tokens that required online friends to get.
Also weird omissions, like the soundtrack selection which only includes some tracks, not even all of the most iconic ones. Stuff like the main Torvus Bog theme aren't there but some forgettable cutscene music is, I know it's a trivial thing to get hung up on but it just confuses me lol.
Amazing trilogy, I don't need to say why, the games speak for themselves. Give it a play if you haven't!

I feel bad for anyone who didn't pick up this collection on the Wii U Eshop for the insane steal price of $20, you know, for 3 of the BEST GAMES EVER MADE!
Straight up one of the best value-for-money packages in video game history
Three incredible games in one, plus Prime 2's multiplayer mode. I don't know what more you could ask for (other than Hunters maybe), but this is phenomenal. This is the best way to control these games, too (at least officially). I will never stop talking about these games.
Still blown away by the absolute theft this title was. Maybe the best game collection ever arranged.
Easily one of the best video game trilogy collections of all time. I don't have much to say about this version specifically, so please check out my review for each individual game instead:

Thank god for the Spring Ball being added to prime 1+2, I could never beat the Spider Guardian on GameCube.
Absolute masterpieces here. Such detailed, immersive sci-fi worlds that constantly amaze me.
I've only beaten the first game out of the three, and wasn't a huge fan of it. I appreciate and acknowledge what it has done for gaming as a whole, though.
The ultimate trilogy, with improved graphics (HD ports) and new wii controls. Nothing to say other than, well, it’s a trilogy of some of the best games for gamecube and wii. And it’s metroid prime. You can’t go wrong.
These are 3 amazing games and awesome first person adventure/action games.
My only issues are are from the second game which has some bad designed bosses. To much back tracking and a terrible endgame fetch quest. Overall though I would highly recommend to give these games a try.

The Metroid Prime Trilogy as a complete package, is one of the best in gaming. Three iconic games in their own right, now with enhanced motion controls. I actually enjoy how the motion controls feel, but I do wish there was an option to play the games without them as well. I've completed the first Metroid Prime, and intend to finish Metroid Prime 2: Echoes and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption eventually.
WOW WOW WOW what an excellent trilogy. These were the first Metroid games that I have ever played through and I'm glad I started with the Prime trilogy. The extra dimension adds so much depth to the world and its gameplay. So much atmosphere is conveyed here.
And the games all aged so well! They still look incredible and are hella addicting, although some design decisions seem outdated by today's standards (scarce saving rooms for instance).
The Prime games are also similar enough to be called a series but at the same time different enough that every entry is distinct and unique, which I love.

The re-spawning enemies gets very tiring. Running backwards and forwards in the same area gets very repetitive. I played the PC mod of Metroid Prime and chucked it after being unable to do the half-pipe mechanic.
As a collection, perfect.
although i am far from being metroid prime 2's biggest fan, the value of this game is unreal. during the wii u days, you could get three metroid prime games for just $20. really puts it into perspective nowadays. unfortunately the wii u eshop is no more, but to those who managed to get this on there before it shut down, rest easy knowing you're one of the lucky souls
This is the best way to experience the older Prime games. Let me tell you, Primehack + this version? Beautiful
I absolutely enjoyed my time with all Metroid Prime games, with the first one even becoming one of my favorites of all time. Prime 2 really takes a while to get good (and by then you're almost done with the game), and Prime 3 is pretty decent and could've served as a good conclusion to the Prime series.
Alas, Prime 4 is still (hopefully) cooking over at Retro, so I'm happy to say that I can now join the bandwagon in waiting for any news to come

I have my gripes with the prime games but i mean come the fuck on this is an aggressively good deal.
Bargain of the century. Prime 1 & 2 are massively improved with Wii controls, and the widescreen support is also a huge plus.
Even with the Prime 1 remaster out, this is still my go-to version of it to replay.

A collection of 3 amazing Metroid games all in one place, with the Multiplayer of Prime 2 included! What more can you ask for? The collection is amazing with the addition of achievements to the first two prime games but I will say being forced to use Prime 3's controls does hurt a bit.
3 games in one!? Holy cannoli!
Love all three of them, motion controls feel great. Best way to play these games
Three must-play games.
Good trilogy
A fine artisan wine going out of it's way to make a great trilogy even more accessible for people around the time of it's release. There's absolutely no negatives here. It's aces.
Still waiting on the Switch version but hey according to Twitter, the Switch 2/Pro is going to happen literally tomorrow and THAT'S when they're gonna drop Prime 4 and this. Totally, guys. My dad works at Nintendo.

These games are really great, and its unfortunate we've had to wait so long for another installment in this side series. IIRC I liked MP2 the most with 1 closely behind
Terrible choice to remove some of the best title screens in all of gaming but its fine I guess 🙄
