The story doesn´t matter in a game like this one. This is a generic shooter set on Metroid universe because is the only way for the game to sell something. It has not a single key element from any main Metroid game ever done, only shooting aliens, when so many fans are expecting a real metroid (2D or 3D) this is just a punch in the face.

It has the Galactic Federation. "Killing aliens" is their sole purpose in Metroid canon. That most definitely is a key element from Metroid. At least, from the Prime spinoff trilogy, which is where this game takes place.

This isn't a punch in the face. This is a spin off game. If you think this is a generic shooter, you think all of Prime is generic shooting, because this is literally just Prime combat in a bubble. This doesn't play anything like other shooters because the combat and controls are nothing like real shooters. You aren't even aiming at anything, you're locking on, which is the whole point of being a "generic" shooter.

The Prime trilogy games didn't have chibi GF soldiers. If this game wants to belong to the Prime canon than it has to use the established (and vastly superior) artstyle. But it doesn't.

The Prime trilogy has a vast interconnected world where you can explore and backtrack for new powerups or story progression. This game has none of that. There is no progression in story or powerups.

The Prime trilogy had a background story unlocked through a scan system. This game has not.

The Prime trilogy has Samus in the leadrole. This game has not.

The Prime trilogy was good. This game won't be.

The Prime trilogy had strafing. I doubt this game has it.

The Prime Trilogy had good graphics for the system they were on. This game looks awful.

This will be a generic FPS with an awkward control system because it's on a handheld.

This will be the third game in the Metroid series I'll ignore and deny its existence.

This game isn't part of the Prime Trilogy. None of your points are relevent considering that, out side of the art style, which is the only thing that is right.

This is an in universe spin off. It. Is. A. Spin. Off.

The world isn't interconnected because the GF aren't explorers, they're soldiers. Exploration isn't their job, it's Samus'.

Samus isn't the lead role because Samus isn't the only entity important to the Metroid universe.

That's a juvenille non-point not worth acknowledging any further.

This game does have strafing. Now you're just making shit up. You either haven't watched the gameplay at all, or never played a Prime game and don't know what the strafing actually looked like.

Again, the game looks like shit. We all know that. That doesn't stop it from being a Metroid Prime game. That just makes it an ugly Metroid Prime game. I guess Star Fox: Zero isn't really Star Fox either, because it doesn't look good too.

No it won't. It has the Prime control scheme, which means you both don't know how a "generic shooter" plays, and you think the Prime games have an "awkward control scheme." In fact, it actually has a better control scheme than the Prime games, because it actually uses the right analog stick for camera control instead of the terrible way the GCN prime games did it.

No one will crucify you for ignoring a spin off game of a spin off trilogy. 

It has Prime in its name, so it's part of the Prime series. Yet it has nothing in common with it. So where is Metroid Prime, Dark Samus or phazon in this game? How else can it be called Metroid Prime? Are there even metroids in this game?

I have watched the gameplay where they trapped those ice creatures, it was cringeworthy. No strafing to be found. 3DS doesn't have dual analogue sticks, GC has, and yes I used them to look around.
