Who do you think will develop the next metroid?

I purposely said Metroid Prime because I wasn't including Fusion since it's radically different as I also didn't include Metroid Prime Pinball for the same reason. If you look at the Metroid Prime games critically, they get increasingly lower scores as time passes. You can chalk that up to reviewer bias or understand that maybe Metroid isn't feeling so fresh anymore. If you look at reviews for Metroid Prime 3, you'll actually notice a trend of reviewers attitudes being "been there done that". Metroid needs a break and others need to shine. That will make Metroid feel fresh again 3-5 years from now in a grand return. If you can't understand why Prime felt so fresh it was because it was a great game to a series we hadn't seen in almost 10 years. Metroid is oversaturated right now and Nintendo only has so many developers to work on projects. I would enjoy new IPs or a fresh perspective of overlooked franchises, and leave characters like Samus to rest a bit for now and come back stronger than ever. Give me a killer Kirby console title for gods sake! It's been FOREVER!

When was the last great Kirby console game?  Kirby Superstar for the SNES?  Kirby 64 took all the great parts of Superstar, flushed them down the toilet, and gave Kirby a double-lightsaber.
