But they've figured out that first-person shooters sell better, so they're selling out. Boo!

I thought the original Metroid Prime was a big hit. Bigger than than Echoes or Hunters, anyway. I'd be surprised if they moved in that direction to the extent you say.
I figured they went that route for Hunters because of the system constraints. Perhaps they're doing it now because of the Wiimote.
