Well gee, I can't believe that a Konami funded, cash grab portable interquel tie in to a man game would not have the same kind of budget, care and attention to mechanics as a Nintendo overseen 2D Metroid game remake.

Lords of Shadow had AAA money and was atrocious.

Hot take on Samus Returns that has been pissing off the Internet whenever I whisper it:
AM2R is the better Metroid 2 remake and Samus Returns looks like a Playstation 1 game. Also melee countering and 360 degree aiming means most combat consists of standing still and being a turret instead of running and gunning.

Were Metroid games really about running and gunning, though? My memories of Super Metroid mostly consist of finding a safe place to plant my feet and then filling the monsters with daylight until they attacked.

If I was running and killing enemies simultaneously then I either had the Plasma Beam or was running right through the fuckers.
