Actually, referring to Metroid as an "adventure" is rather silly itself. But that's a separate issue.
Well, that's from the discussion page, not the article itself. Anyway, it was first used in this sense to describe Metroid Prime (apparently). As I mentioned earlier, these people are plain unaware of the fact that the term has already been used by others to mean something else.

Which is why you guys need to add to the information, not replace it.

I haven't played MP, so I don't know how well it falls into any of the other categories that various people call "adventure games."
