Third Person wouldn't work well with a title like Metroid Prime. Can you imagine shooting precisely and scanning objects while seeing the backside of the character? It's near impossible to execute in an adventure game with shooting elements.
If anything, the first person perception makes the game alot more immersive. The art directions also becomes harder to appreciate in third person.
Pixel Art can be fun.
