There's been plenty of minor changes and updates to Metroid Prime 1 and 2 in the Metroid Prime Trilogy besides the control overhaul, and while the music in the original Metroid Prime seems unchanged, a few tracks were modified in Metroid Prime 2 (like the themes played when picking up the Energy Transfer Module and any Dark Temple Key). Although chances are these tracks may have been changed in the original Japanese release of Metroid Prime 2: Dark Echoes and just carried over into the trilogy... I've recorded these changes and added four extra tracks to the Metroid Prime 2 soundtrack, they're all right at the bottom so if you've already picked up the big zip archive before just grab the four individually.

Along with these I've also prepared the Wii Menu Theme and Title Theme from the trilogy itself - grab these from the bottom of any of the music pages from the trilogy's individual games. I also found some annoying glitches in the Metroid Prime soundtrack too (gah), so I've refreshed it again with fixed tracks. Apologies to anyone who needs to download it again :( Enjoy!

Update #1: Special thanks to Damian for letting me know that I'd missed the multiplayer theme from Echoes that plays with only one minute or score left in a match - all fixed now.

Update #2: Another very big thank you to Caploand who has kindly provided us with the Wii Menu Themes of the Japanese versions of Metroid Prime 1 and 2 - both tracks are presented with the other two Trilogy themes at the base of each of the main games' music pages. Enjoy!

Update #3: Phew, I really hope this is the last one. As it turns out there were a few musical changes for Metroid Prime 3 in the Metroid Prime Trilogy too... I've added the extended Bryyo main theme and Natives of Bryyo (which if you listen closely was altered slightly from the original) to the end of the list. Unlike most tracks the Bryyo theme only runs for one loop otherwise it'd end up beyond 14 minutes long. The beginning of the Phaaze main theme track needed fixing too, so if you've already downloaded it before grab it individually for the final version. Now hopefully that should finally be the end of all the music updates...
