I have to seriously question this sentence. More innovative than Mario 64, i.e. the game that created the 3D-platformer? You're stretching it. Metroid: Other M is completely new, with new gameplay, new point of view, new pacing and action, new characters, and new story. Aside from the new story part, do we actually know any of this for sure? We've gotten a highly-ambiguous trailer, an interview talking about Samus' maternal instincts, and, as far as I know, nothing else on the subject. I think this is a bit premature. You're right about Twilight Princess, but Miyamoto has said that was the last traditional Zelda and he's doing something crazy different next. That was actually made up by the internet. He's recently said that the next Zelda won't be that different. http://multiplayerblog.mtv.com/2009/07/02/miyamoto-next-zelda-on-the-wii-not-radically-different/
Considering the development cycles, those people always make me laugh. For the record, I agree with the rest of your post.

Metroid: I thought we knew the new Metroid would have 3rd person and 2-D parts, and it seems much faster, especially since Team Ninja doesn't make games about really slow atmospheric exploration.
Mario: yeah, I meant most innovative 3-D platformer SINCE Mario 64 defined it.
Zelda: whoa, news to me. ::clicks link::
