Metroid Prime: Trilogy – No Longer Being Published or Shipped

Coffee With Games Wrote:

Have you purchased Metroid Prime Trilogy Collector’s Edition, if not, you better get a move on it!

A few weeks back, I mentioned on one of my blogs, “Metroid Prime: Trilogy, for some reason, isn’t in stock on Amazon.com now, and it’s only available from 2nd or 3rd party vendors on Amazon.com.”

I sent a few emails over to Nintendo, inquiring as to why Metroid Prime: Trilogy wasn’t in stock on Amazon.com for several weeks in a row.
The question in one email was, “Amazon.com hasn’t had Metroid Prime: Trilogy in stock for several weeks. Is Metroid Prime: Trilogy still being published, or has production for the game stopped?”

The response I received from Nintendo was, “Unfortunately, Metroid Prime Trilogy is no longer being shipped. Having said that, you may be able to find what you seek through the secondhand video game market.”

For clarification purposes, I sent over another email and asked, “I was told Metroid Prime: Trilogy is not being shipped/published anymore. Is that true? If so, is there any reason why Metroid Prime: Trilogy isn’t being shipped/published?”

Thanks for the tip Adam.

Now that this game is discontinued, will you be picking it up if you haven’t already?

    Wow. I picked it up at Target for $30 and was pissed when I found it for $20 somewhere else, but I’m not feeling so bad about it now. At least I got it. Why did they do that? Same thing happened with Tetris DS a while back.

    Idiots! Idiots! Idiots! WHY ARE THEY NO LONGER SHIPPING?

    I bought preordered this game long before launch, and am perfectly happy with it, so this doesn’t hurt me personally… but why stop?

    Indeed… my collector’s edition suddenly is actually a valuable collector’s piece.
