Metroid Prime: Trilogy is an action-adventure video game compilation developed by Retro Studios and published by Nintendo for the Wii video game console. It features Metroid Prime, Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption on a single dual-layer disc. The former two, which were originally released for the Nintendo GameCube, have been updated with many of the features that were first implemented in the latter. It was released in North America on August 24, 2009, Europe on September 4, 2009, and in Australia on October 15, 2009. It comes packaged in a Steelbook case (only available in the North America release), contains an art booklet, and includes other features; it is one of three Wii games to come in a non-white keep case (the others being New Super Mario Bros. Wii and Zangeki no Reginleiv).

Game Pages

This page should be used for specific issues with the Metroid Prime 2: Echoes sub-game of Metroid Prime: Trilogy. For other Metroid Prime: Trilogy games or launcher information, please see the following pages.

Problems

Audio

The DSP-HLE sound plug-in works on revisions 7686 and later. Note that certain sounds/music may play at maximum volume regardless of settings or distance from the sound source when using DSP-HLE. DSP-LLE provides the more accurate emulation.

For revisions before, use DSP-LLE instead. Note that DSP LLE requires a dumped DSP bios from a physical console. Instructions are on this forum thread

Performance

Performance in general seems reduced compared to the games' Gamecube counterparts. This may be related to the higher resolution textures and various new screen effects added for the trilogy versions.
