I too would like to see a 2D sprite-based game in the vein of Super Metroid. With today's technology, such a game would look fantastic and for me would have so much more atmosphere than a 2.5D game.

~Says the guy who hasn't played the 2.5D game.

(Yes, assumption levels off the charts here I know. But it seems to be the case and it's likely as seemingly most people here haven't played it... and no, you can't judge atmosphere just by watching a game, that's ridiculous.)

I indeed haven't played it (don't own a 3DS). But I'm not talking about gameplay or anything like that. I just prefer the look and feel of 2D sprites over 2.5D.
