The compilation rendition, with minor changes from the standalone Japanese release. The NTSC-U version of Metroid Prime Trilogy. The first version released for the Wii, which includes updated controls similar to Metroid Prime 3. Aside from using the 'slower' loader, this version fixes most of the bugs that made popular sequence break and speedrun tricks possible in previous versions. It also came with the Metroid Prime Bonus Bundle, which included a silver GameCube and a Metroid Prime 2 demo disc. The North American Player's Choice release was the last revision of the game on GameCube. Aside from the language and NTSC-J format, the Japanese version is very similar to the PAL version in content but uses the original loader that may cause occasional crashes. Aside from the PAL format and the extensive changes in content, the game uses a new 'slower' loader that prevents crashes. A version optimized to run on PAL TVs and GameCubes. The number can also be found in the disc image header, although as a general rule for any Nintendo game, the one printed onto the physical media is more accurate. Said number is two digits on GameCube discs and one digit on Wii discs. The version can be found on the back of the disc around the center - it's the last number before the manufacturing region (USA in the example). Metroid Prime has nine distinct versions: three US, one Japanese, one PAL, one Korean, and three on the Wii.
