Same here, got the metroid prime trilogy on the wii and its fantastic and a master class in game and environment design.

Me and a mate had a try on echoes multiplayer and had a blast, so would really like to see a top notch online multiplayer mode in a wii u metroid!

I'm actually wondering whether an action-oriented metroid (which would be more friendly to multiplayer) would be better off as it's own spin-off rather than part of the Prime games. I would definitely purchase a multiplayer FPS from Nintendo.

I think as far as Metroid multiplayer goes, there should just be a spin-off series where you play as Galactic Federation soldiers versus Space Pirates. Retro Studios can do that. Or maybe Nintendo Software Technology. The main series has no justified reason to be a multiplayer game. It'd be like making Zelda a multiplayer game. Yes, I know there are multiplayer Zelda games, but they are a spin-off series.

I actually agree with this. Maybe as a tutorial they can separate the game into separate campaigns that only take about half to an hour to complete, like Left 4 Dead. This would also work for challenge levels of course, and if Samus is no longer the main character, Co-Op is justified as the GFA has to work together to achieve anything.

Perhaps there could be a big focus on hunting Metroids. Maybe the GF Troopers can only hold a couple powerups at once. Since Samus is supposed to be the only one who can Morph Ball (established in Prime and retconned in Hunters...), suppose they had a bigger focus on vehicles to get around. That would potentially open up the world to bigger, less claustrophobic areas. It would also be a good means to skip around and get to a lot of story content without needing to connect it all into one game world.

Maybe your first mission is on K2-L, as one of a few GFA guards keeping tabs on the afloraltite. You would inevitably fail of course, because this is the attack in which Samus loses her human parants, but it would be a wonderful opportunity to actually have that important bit of backstory as canon in an actual game. How about the invasion of Zebes? You could play as a Chozo using another version of the power suit trying to save Samus as she's still a teenager while Ridley is orphaning her a second time. It would be kind of odd to play a co-op mission where Samus is player 2... Or how about playing through a mission from Samus's time within the military, commanded by Adam Malcovitch. Or flash back to a severely shortened version of the events in Metroid 2. Or play as Anthony. Or play as Adam in his early military years. This freedom to jump around actually opens up a lot of story possibilities and would be very well suited for an action FPS.

Nintendo Software Technology. The American Nintendo studio.

Personally, I didn't really like the characters in Hunters or Metroid Prime 3. They just weren't that memorable. They seemed more like stock characters than anything. At least the Galactic Federation Army and the Space Pirates have been staples throughout the Metroid series and not just characters made up to fill spots.

@Neoproteus I could see Samus making cameos in the game. Maybe have Samus as the team hero for the GFA in certain team based game modes. I'm not sure who the Space Pirates' hero would be... Ridley is simply too big.

@Xilef:

I'm going to throw this personal theory out there, but what about the Orange Phazon in the Impact Crater? I think that infected planets produce their own unique Phazon under certain conditions or possibly that the Leviathans that were shot at other planets were too young to create their own unique Phazon. Or maybe there are mutated Phazon planets explaining orange or other colored Phazon. I really don't know, but if any neat plot twist to bring about Phazon without being to far fetched would be neat. What I'd do for Samus to fight a Phazon enhanced, Metroid-like Mother Brain #3 who tried to dissuade you from opposing the spread of Phazon as you fought it.

I like a remake in first or third person of the sidescroller Metroid games, or vice-versa (Sidescroller Metroid Prime). Or a new game made from a different view (isometric, top-down, etc;_

This is a signature.
Link goes here now.
Screw you.

I would like to see Retro back on it, but maybe a new villain. Maybe, move the name form Metrois to Samus.

Metroids loose in some futuristic slums. Yeaaah, that'd be good. Gotta contain them from going around latching on to heads.

Instead of changing the name, I'd like to see more of a focus on the Metroids themselves. Maybe make a First Person game that includes the various stages of metamorphosis included in Metroid 2... I know an Omega Metroid would make an awesome Prime boss.

My expectations? Very low and sour.

I'd prefer a Sidescroller Metroid instead of a "First person adventure" like the prime games. If nintendo is going to make another 3D Metroid, it needs to be in the same vein as Other M, hey Other M was brilliant, despite everyone complaining about Samus, she actually needs a bit of fleshing out character-wise, but still she was and always will be badass in my opinion, besides nintendo can change the samus from other:m back to the way she was, because if you look at it, the game isn't the lastest in the series continuity-wise and that's a great thing, but even so I loved Other M for even it's flaws, so other:m naysayers/ haters can naysay/hate.
I've pretty much played every single metroid game, except for the prime trilogy and the series progresses through sidescrollers, not the prime games, they are a sub series. I personally want nintendo to continue from now on after the events of Metroid Fusion because ever since the ending to that game i've wanted to see what would happen to Samus, the metroids and the Galactic Federation.

Ok, I'm really sick of people defending Other M in the exact same ways. Say something new people or just stop. But you at least admit you enjoy it DESPITE flaws so whatever.

that being said, I do want to see something happen after Fusion. I've loved that Metroid is the one series where previous games actually legit matter somewhat, and I was hoping to see that with Samus and computer Adam and Anthony having adventures and having some problems involving the Galactic Federation's questionable decisions. Unfortunately, this won't happen and Nintendo will think they need an entire new side story to wash away the critical and commercial failure of Other M.
