    I have never seen a copy of this in the shops, is it available anywhere in Dublin?
    I read on Wikipedia that it is being discontinued in America and Australia, and that it may happen here aswell.

    Theres still copies of it online, but I dont have a credit card

    I've seen it in Extravisions in Galway and Donegal so your best bet would be to look in any Extravision near you.

    Try Smyths at the Blanchardstown Centre,they had a few last week when I was in there, Xtravision maybe sold out as they had a massive sale that ended last month,HMV and Game or Gamestop in the centre would also be places to check,great games hope you find a copy.

    They have it in game for 19.99 which is very good for 3 awesome games


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,705 ✭✭✭Mr Trade In

    Hey lads, just got a Wii and was wondering is this game available? Searched it here and spotted it was 30 euro only 10 months ago and now it's very rare and about 100!

    Anyone know where i can buy it relatively cheap?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,571 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Same advice as 9 months ago (when this thread started) ..... Its in Xtravision.
    Also in game and gamestop. Check the preowned shelves in all 3 and you'll find it very cheap.
    Its not rare (yet).

    Thanks I'll try.

    I've been to a few gamestops and games so far but no xtra vision so i'll try there.

    If anyone knows of a copy lying around the cork kerry area will you let me know please.

    Thanks

    Why anyone would trade in the trilogy is beyond me.:confused:

    New copies are getting pretty rare online... I stupidly sold my copy of MP3 when Amazon had the trilogy on pre-order for £17, but that order ended up getting cancelled and I haven't seen it for much under £30 since then :(
    Might start hitting the B&M shops instead

    Got it today for 15 euro pre-owned in Gamestop out in Blackpool.

    I'm not too sure if there was another copy as i asked for it out in the Wilton Gamestop and he said there was a pre-owned copy out in Blackpool.

    So if anyones looking, make sure to ask if they can check it's availability in other stores.

    Never played any of the 3 games before since the Wii is the first nintendo console i've had since the SNES.

    Just curious, is there a normal copy as my one is the collectors additon. It's in great condition and has the cover case too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 454 ✭✭CrazyTalk


    I'm not sure, my one has a cover case aswell. It's a cracking collection, I can't believe somebody out there traded it in. :confused:

    If they were selling it for €15, chances are they only gave a fiver or less for it as well... That makes me cry a little on the inside:(

    The game was made as a collectors edition, that's why so many people have a hard time finding it.
    I think there was only 250,000 made or something like that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,258 ✭✭✭✭DARK-KNIGHT


    lets just see if it turns out to be a serious collectors item in years to come? will frame mine lol 2 solid weeks searching to find it for 30 euro...

    It worth it i'd say. I got mine pre owned for 15.

    Only played about 5 hours worth but it is very good once you get into the controls

    Super mario world is the best mario ever in my opinion.
    I hate the all stars edition though.
    Best version is snes virtual console version.

    http://metroid.com/primetrilogy - confirmed, every one comes with that special case/cover.

    any word on it being released? god now that was a great game


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,408 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Haven't heard anything and so far there's been no games released on it that used extra hardware chips in the cartridge so not looking good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,258 ✭✭✭✭DARK-KNIGHT


    is there anyone looking for a copy of this game? i have one if anyones interested?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,160 ✭✭✭tok9
