The best Metroid game I've played since SM was Batman:AA. They nailed the formula, the atmosphere, lore elements, ancient mysteries, etc. Ideally a new Metroid would be just like that game, built by a talented and dedicated studio like Rocksteady, but with the gameplay improved to be dual analog shooting in the third person. Original Metroids always had great shooting mechanics for their time.

Also, Samus should look like Kim Bassinger.

Actually, better yet would be to actually pay a modern hottie like Charlotte McKinney to appear in the game. That would draw a lot of buzz, like Upton and GoW.

Metroid should either be 2D or 3D in first person...

Go play Gears of Wars or something.

Why so many people want Metroid to be something it's not is baffling.  Metroid is NOT a shooter.

Metroid games simply look silly in third person (3D). It completely breaks the immersion these games are famous for.

As for the Batman games, they're good, but they're what I call "Metroid for babies" games. The combat basically consists of spamming the same button over and over again. Metroid is about isolation as well, Batman isn't.
