I agree with mortono on bringing in another character besides Samus as the lead. The games isn't called Samus but Metroid. As long as Metroids appear anyone could be the main character of the game. I disagree with Samus being a damsel in distress she could show up a mentor kind of like Snake in Metal Gear Solid 2 or Dante in Devil may cry 4.
Either that or a game where she is actually doing her job catching criminals as a bounty hunter instead of picking up some distress call constantly.
