-Nintendo needs to develop Metroid series into a blockbuster title like Halo. Develop it into an amazing story telling FPS with a stellar MP. Find a Western studio for it.

Please no. Nintendo can do that with a new IP, metroid has a history and there are expectations in the genre for its fans, it is too risky to make it an entirely different game in hopes of appealing to new fans while distancing itself from the established metroid fanbase who will guarantee a purchase of the game.  I don't mind  good multi-player in Metroid games, but they shouldn't take from the single-player (ala Prime Hunters.) As for the story, I prefer the method of "telling a story through the environment" that Nintendo uses in Metroid game. Fusion and Other M weren't horrible games for me, but they definitely took the appeal out of the story by using a more cinematic approach rather than an environmental one. .

You think by going from 2D side scroller to 3D FPS ain't too risky?

Plus, making it like Halo will detract Metroid from single player? That's a game that does both right and should be an example for Nintendo.
