Well considering that almost everything in Metroid Prime is based off of Super Metroid, you can't really call it more original.
There were quite a few 2D platformers is the SNES days, but Super Metroid style of gameplay was different than the others.
Wall jumping was one of the things that made Metroid Prime different. Experts would use wall jumping to break the normal sequence of gameplay.
