They shouldn't have stopped after the first Prime Pinball, to be quite honest.
Oh lord, why does this always happen to me?

Yoshi is back
This ain't about MPP, It's about MP1, MP2, and MP3.

Id play another prime game. I liked playing it first person. I'm glad they are done with the whole "phazon zomg" thing but if they made another Metroid Prime that throws you on a random planet and had no connection to the trilogy I think it would be amazing.
We'll have to see how Other M goes. So far I'm only slightly interested and mostly just for curiosity's sake.

I'd like to see one where you can drain the energy out of enemies like a Metroid (using a beam or grapple beam of some sorts). They kept talking about the Space Pirates trying to harvest Metroid energy or whatever. For whatever dumbass reason, you could only use the grapple voltage on certain devices rather than enemies in MP3. And the Fusion suit did nothing special.
my umbrella goes directly to Bankai
disregarding the fact that mp2 is my favorite from the series, they should have stopped at mp1 and made a different themed game after that. the core of the Metroid series is the 2D games and i feel the prime games derailed the series a lot.
sales note: the Metroid series has modest sales at best. none of the games are big sellers anywhere. a few games selling above a million units is all it can do. Kirby and DK are bigger than it.
for perspective, Mario Kart Wii has sold more copied than the entire Metroid series combined and Super Mario Galaxy has sold more than the complete Prime series combined..

Makes sense seeing as all of those examples are normally targeted to wider audiences. Metroid is still one of the most mature series that Nintendo has put out as far as first party games go, and not everyone will be drawn to it as easily. Plus the fact that, at least for Mario Kart, casual/party multiplayer games are still selling like crazy in the current marketplace last I knew. Then consider the whole "Japanese audience doesn't like the series as much" factor, and things start adding up as to why Metroid's sales figures aren't as high as some of the others from Nintendo.
Not that I have anything to back up these thoughts right now, so I could be completely wrong.

Those stats really scare me. The profitability of metroid is the only thing that makes it stay alive. Ninty has already decided that the series isn't profitable enough for them to waste the time of their own production team. The series does have some die-hard fans but there's just not enough of them out there to compete.
I hope samus likes waffles!
I think, yes.
At the end of Prime 3 if you have 100%
you see a ship following samus. Its a tedious question in the MP univerise but, hey,
who knows who it is?
It could be SA-X cause remember when adam said there could be 10 SA-X's in fusion?
samus only killed mabye 9. so it could be:
Metroid prime
X returns
