Metroid Prime Trilogy

The Metroid Prime trilogy began with the original Metroid Prime in November 2002 and ended with August 2007's Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. The trilogy saw the Metroid series swap 2D for 3D but retain the Metroidvania level design that it is known for. In 2009, Nintendo compiled the games into the Wii's Metroid Prime: Trilogy package.
