Damn, Nintendo censors a swear word in Metroid Prime Trilogy

August 31st, 2009 2 Comments   Posted in FPS, Offbeat, Wii

Nintendo has actually gone ahead and censored the dialog of Admiral Dane in the new Metroid Prime Trilogy. In the original Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, the Admiral says “Damn!”, while in Trilogy, he says a whole-hearted “No!”.

It’s a very minor change, and I’m not the least bit affected by it, but it’s interesting to see what is censor-worthy in Nintendo of America’s eyes.

Metroid Prime Trilogy dated for Europe

July 12th, 2009 No Comments   Posted in FPS, Wii


The Metroid Prime Trilogy has been scheduled for a September 4th release in Europe. While this isn’t as early as the North American release (August 24th), it’s still a solid date. Nintendo of Europe is notorious for having scheduled games in the PAL region several months after its North American and Japanese counterparts.

The trilogy includes every Metroid Prime game, including Corruption, on one disc. All of the GameCube titles have been redone to work with the Wii controls. The collector’s edition will be also be packaged with an art book.

Nintendo has revealed the box art of the upcoming Metroid Trilogy for the Wii, and it looks rather impressive (depending on how easy you are to impress when it comes to box arts). The plastic game box will be included in a metal casing, and will also include an art book, all for $50.

The Metroid Trilogy will include Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes from the GameCube, and of course, the Wii hit Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. The trilogy is slated for release this August.

Nintendo reveals Metroid Trilogy for the Wii

Nintendo’s Metroid Prime 3: Corruption was easily the best FPS on the Wii, and now the publisher is adding those controls to the previous two games, Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, previously released on the GameCube.

Nintendo has announced that the two previous games, alongside Corruption, will be released as a Trilogy on one disc for $50. This is great news to Wii owners who have only played Corruption and want to know the story that precedes it. And who want to experience arguably two of the best games ever released on the GameCube. It will be available on August 24.
