Nintendo Relives the Past With Metroid Prime Trilogy for Wii

Metroid SS

Can someone tell Nintendo we want new games, not rehashed product with motion controls? The casual gaming giant today announced the upcoming release of Metroid Prime Trilogy for the Wii. Featuring new versions of Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes cominbed with Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, you’ll get a lot of Samus action.

It’s without saying that they’re all solid games, but why no new Metroid content? I’ll tell you why: because people will buy anything Nintendo gives them. This new Trilogy is going to sell over a million units because it’s the new hot shit from Nintendo.

Personally, I’m not buying it. I’ve played all three and don’t need to go back and play the first two with motion controls. Sure, having them on one disc is cool, but Nintendo still has a long way to go if they really do want to appease the core gamers. My bet is they don’t care at this point.

Loot Ninja’s 2007 Game of the Year

2007 Game of the Year

2007 was one of the best years ever for gamers. We saw some amazing games on every platform. There were sequels that took their game to that next level, and new franchises that redefined their genre. With that said, there were just too many great games for the team here at Loot Ninja to come with a decisive overall Game of the Year. Two of us picked the same game, Call of Duty 4, but everyone else couldn’t agree on the best title of the year. We’ve got votes for Uncharted, Metroid Prime 3, and Halo 3. So we’re just going to let you see all of our picks for the coveted 2007 Game of the Year.
