I thought they said Prime 3 would be the last Prime game....
Also, not to say the Prime series was bad, but frankly I want a new 2D Metroid BAD. Its long overdue and I think Nintendo and Yoshio Sakamoto should try to focus on marketing and releasing more entries in the series on a regular, 3-5 year basis, much like the main Zelda and Mario games.
With that said, Metroid Other M is pretty much my most anticipated game right now, along with DQIX and X. But I can't help holding out hope that after Other M we will see an actual sequel to Metroid Fusion in 2D on the DS or its successor. As much as I enjoy Metroids leap into 3D and I think Other M will even surpass the Prime series, I feel its true place lies in the realm of 2D.
