Where to buy Metroid Prime Remastered

Nintendo launched the physical version of Metroid Prime Remastered on Feb. 22, about two weeks after it surprise-launched the digital version on Feb. 8. However, if you didn’t pre-order the cartridge-based game, you’re probably having a tough time finding it in stock right now. It sold out at multiple retailers during its pre-order phase (even Nintendo itself quickly sold through its initial stock).

But if you head over to Amazon, you might be able to find a physical copy of the game selling for $39.99, its retail price (via Wario64).

Should that sell out, it might be tempting to spring for a pricier copy on eBay, but you should hold off. You never know when the next restock might happen. Plus, Nintendo of America told Polygon in a statement “If the Metroid Prime Remastered game sells out at various retail locations in the U.S., we will work to provide more units as soon as possible.”
