Metroid is NOT Splatoon and NOT Batman. If you can't see the difference between Splatoon and Metroid then I don't know what to tell you. Splatoon wouldn't work well in first person view because of the squid mechanic. Since you switch a lot between "kid" and squid "mode" it would get very disorienting if the camera had to switch between first person and third person mode. Turning into the morph ball in Metroid Prime isn't disorientating as you don't need to switch between it that often and usually during quiet moments of the game (and even then the developers struggled a lot with putting this mechanic in). Splatoon is also a pure shooter, it doesn't require a lock-on button like Metroid, it doesn't have strafing.
Metroid's roots lie with 2D side-scrollers and I have no problem with Nintendo making more Metroid games like that. A third person 3D Metroid game however has nothing to do with the Metroid roots.
Even Nintendo has acknowledges that there are two different types of Metroid games: first person adventure and 2D side-scroller. They wanted to continue those two types, they said nothing about that crappy third person game that we call Other M.
I've played Arkham City, it does nothave scan logs, it tells most of its story through voice acting and interaction between Batman and the rest of the cast (villains and good guys alike). Metroid is most definitely about isolation, it's what makes the atmosphere as great as it is.
This is cool looking:
This looks like it came from the power rangers:

LOL.
-Splatoon has transformation between Kid and Squid for fast travel. I'm trying to think of another game that has transformation between two forms, one where you are a human character and can shoot and stuff and another where you go down to the ground and can move quickly and stuff... I know there is another game that did that first, but I can't think of what it was... Darn, it just eludes me. One thing I do know though, in whatever game it was, it would surely be disorienting if you switched between first- and 3rd-person with the transformation. Better keep it in third person.
-Why are you talking about Arkham City. I never brought up that game. You're confused.

Either you can't read or you didn't read my post. Either way you got exposed. Try reading beyond what you bolded.
Some of you guys have no clue about game design...
