Read this (http://blastmagazine.com/the-magazine/gaming/gaming-news/2010/01/nintendo-no-longer-publishing-shipping-metroid-prime-trilogy/) and discuss.

My suspicion is that Nintendo is trying to make it into a collectible. There's really no reason for them to just stop producing copies of it otherwise.

I'm with him, I love the game to death. And I'm pretty sure most people can agree to say the Wii's remote had to have been made with Metroid in mind.

Making it kinda limited is the only thing I can think of...

I thought the same thing you guys did.
Now people will hurry to buy it.
Ever heard the expression "Doing it like it's about to go out of style"?
Now that there won't be any more, it will be sold quickly until every copy is sold.
Disturbing news, yes. What happened to Star Fox as well? I seem to be the only one who enjoyed the Star Fox series...

I enjoyed Star Fox 64, but haven't had the chance to play the other games in the series yet.

Same here. Star Fox 64 is so awesome. Very, very much replay value.

I had a lot of fun with Star Fox Adventures, but if I had to recommend one, it'd be Star Fox Assault. That game was great too.

Star Fox Adventures was amazing, but I've got to warn you that it will turn you into a furry, like it did me.

Star Fox Assault was okay, but Adventures was better.

Oh, also-- there's a Bladerunner homage somewhere in SFAdventures, can you find it?

Alternative to going into the secondhand market: Install HBC, Backup loader, and torrent it.

Of course that's not exactly LEGAL in the United States, and I'll leave it up to the individual if it's ethically sound.

^That would probably be an instance of Keep Circulating the Tapes (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/KeepCirculatingTheTapes), which...yeah, depends.

Fix'd

You forgot the "url=".

Getting used games isn't too bad.  Except for when the battery is dead, so the game won't save.  You'd think stores would check that.
