Why Metroid Prime 4?

it's not the final title

 

But I think they should not have called it Metroid Prime, it should be Metroid "something", I mean the Metroid Prime series should be kept close and they should continue with something new, even if they keep the FPA model of Prime.

Uf, Metroid Prime means that's main 3D Metroid game, thats massage they sending buy calling this game Metroid Prime 4.

The Metroid Prime series is a distinct trilogy in the Metroid series, for two reasons, 1- the Phazon, 2- it's a First Person Adventure.

And no that crappy spin off Metroid Prime Hunters doesn't count.

If Metroid Switch is a new departure for the series, then don't call it Metroid Prime, and if it's a direct sequel to Metroid Prime Corruption, then it's just a bad idea, because without Retro, there is no Metroid Prime, even Retro Studios could not make a Metroid Prime 4, since most of the staff from the Metroid Prime days are now working elsewhere.

Calling Metroid Prime 4 is just a bad idea, a marketing idea, maybe it will be called something else when they finally show it, but still...
