How many Metroid Prime games do you think we'll see?

I expect they'll at minimum stick with Metroid Prime 4 simply because of the wait and hype associated with that name, but a change after that would be nice (he says as he loads up Final Fantasy 14).

That would really disappoint me. The Prime story is finished, so a continuation of that makes no narrative sense. I think people are smart enough to understand what a game is without needing a literal reference. Bioshock Infinite didn't need a 3 and neither did the Witcher. As long as the gameplay looks like it's from the same series, that's all I think should matter. I get it for this presentation, but going forward I hope the name changes. If the conflict is between Sylux and Samus now, and not Dark Samus or the Metroid Prime anymore, the name should reflect that.

I completly agree, but just a note: TW3 does actually contain a 3. It's represented as 3 scratches in the shape of the roman numeral equivalent.
