It's so sad the Metroid Prime series never sold as well as it deserved. I think the series was too hardcore for the average GC owner, and much too hardcore for the average Wii owner (though I guess Prime 3 was a bit more casual friendly than the first two). Which is why they went in a new direction with Other M, but Other M sold like a Metroid game would without the critical acclaim; solid scores but not great. I think for the next Metroid game Nintendo just has to respect the series hardcore roots. Hopefuly even if it's just a evolved port a 3DS Prime game will come, and off that they'll build it to the next console Metroid, which may not come until the Wii's successor comes but what an amazing launch title or soon after launch title it could be. Whether Retro does it or not is just has to be a great game, because good just won't cut it with this series.
