Metroid: Samus Returns is FANTASTIC so What's Next for 2D Metroid?

For realzies tho I hope we get an M-Rated Metroid, not for language, but for just unabashedly showing the brutality implied in Super Metroid, with the dead scientists and death of The Baby. 3D, of course, I like 2d Metroid but I feel like the series is best expressed in 3D, to give that feeling isolation and ability to lose your whereabouts in an unfamiliar territory.

I've gone back and forth with this, but I'm not sure how much Metroid would benefit from more explicit violence. Worse is that I'd be afraid that having an M-Rating would compell them to add uneeded violence, rather than only add it where it would be effective.

In theory though, I'm not against it. Look up Ghost Song. I think it does a great job of being an M-Rated Metroid-like game.
