So the Metroid Prime Trilogy is only $10 on the Wii U eshop for a limited time (I think the rest of this week).  
Anybody own Metroid Prime 1&2 on the Gamecube and Metroid Prime 3 on the Wii that is also going to buy the Trilogy on Wii U? 
 

From what I gather the differences are:
+ added motion contols for 1&2
+ 16:9 support
 + they fixed some bugs and glitches
+ some slight tweeks in bosses
+ you can unlock fusion suit
- the original menus are replaced by a central one
- no normal control option
 
 
For me the motion controls were good in Prime 3 but they sometimes screwed up with bosses when I had to jump around a lot.  I think it was partly due to my TV being higher than my sitting position and sensor bar position.  I think I'll still buy the Trilogy just to see how it looks on my HDTV as opposed to my old CRT TV.
 
 
Below is a video showing the load time differences between Wii disc and eShop version of the Trilogy:

 
What are your reasons for buying or not buying Metroid Prime Trilogy for $10 on the Wii U?
