Then it could be first person like prime, but with other type of environment, feeling, ambient. I'm fine with that. imo it should be first person, the ui design of metroid is perfect for fp gameplay.


I think Metroid looses out by being in first person. There's no reason Metroid's UI couldn't work for 3rd person, since it obviously works perfectly in all the not FP Metroid games. Metroid is a platformer and Prime's platforming is child's play compared that of 2D Metroids and any Mario game. Seeing as Metroid is supposed to be as much a platormer as Mario, the move to FP completely neuters that. That's obvious by how many platforming mechanics switch you to 3rd person in the Prime games, and how many more are completely cut out from any of the games.

FP makes as much sense in Metroid as it does in Mario. The only reason Metroid is FP and Mario isn't is because Samus kind of has a gun.
