Metroid Fusion is, in a way, the last classic
Metroid game.
It is a direct sequel of Super Metroid. It
seems that Nintendo do not plan to continue this storyline any further.
Metroid Prime, released at about the same
time for the GameCube, started a new storyline that has seen two
sequels of its own as of 2006, while the next Game Boy Advance game,
Metroid: Zero Mission, was in essence a
remake of the original Metroid game.
