Rocketpig, the director for the game is the same guy who co-directed the first game, directed Super Metroid, Metroid Fusion, and Zero Mission, and was the primary supervisor for the first two Prime games. Sakamoto co-created the franchise with Yokoi.
The game is in very good hands.
(also you are giving me flashbacks to people decrying Metroid Prime as the death of the franchise - "Who the hell is Retro Studios!? Metroid is just goign to be another shooter SLKAJHLAJALKJH")
