So what does this have to do with Metroid Prime?

 

Nintendo didn't buy Retro until a few months before Metroid Prime released. All the changes Miyamoto made to the game mentioned by Takilla would have to happen before that. All of this was made because he was the producer of the game, not the board of directors.

It has everything to do with Metroid Prime ...

Retro Studios was initially a partnership between them and Nintendo. Nintendo had bought Retro Studios well before the release of Metroid Prime which had meant total control of their development from top employees at Nintendo. 

I'm not denying his involvement as a producer of Metroid Prime but you can't exactly discard his influence on the project as a member of the board of directors for Nintendo ...

Well before being a few months? Nintendo purchased Retro mid-2002. The same year Metroid Prime came out. The switch from third to first person happened long before that.
