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.

It seems to me that the name Prime has more to do with the playstyle that the Primes series introduced. There seems to be split coming in the Metroid games: 2D or 2,5D and 3D Prime. Prime could then be a different story/trilogy which is best. Prime would then mean first person adventure then a specific storyline.

The Prime name specifically refers to the metroid prime character. It's not a reference to the playstyle and, again, people are smart enough to see the gameplay and understand the difference.

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.

Oh wow that makes so much sense!
