FPA Metroid Trilogy is over. Time to move on. 3rd Person anyone?

So far most people fear something different. You say FP did it right but I keep saying you never know until a 3rd Person version comes out.

 

Yes, but why? It's dissoluting the original integrity of the Metroid franchise to keep on stretching its orignal magic thin over genre after genre. 2D one's timeless. The Prime games were, surprisingly, equally great. So why? Why not just make a new 3rd person sci-fi IP--why do we have to bastardize Metroid's legacy just to get a whimsical, it-might-be-good game? That's a flimsy argument--I mean, I could claim that Little Big Planet would be better if it was 3rd person; we'll never know until we try. But why try, it works amazingly how it is?

Not trying to sound too angry or anything, this is just a subject I've given a good bit of thought to so I have fairly wordy things to say about it.
