According to an interview with Retro Studios' Mark Pacini, the developer of all three Metroid Prime games, Corruption will have to satisfy you for a while, because there won't be another Prime for a bit. Or, if there is, it won't be a Retro Studios game.
According to Pacini, "We are taking a break from the Metroid series and from Samus. I think that there will be other titles created. But as far as Retro Studios is concerned, we'll take a break for a little bit."
Does anyone else find it weird to have actual news in a softball mainstream-media interview like this one from Yahoo? Also, does anyone think this will be like all those times Hideo Kojima quit Metal Gear?

I had already figured this and thought that everyone else did too, based on the fact that at the beginning of one of the Corruption preview trailers on the Wii Metroid channel it said to "get behind the visor one last time" which I took as meaning that with Corruption I was going to be getting behind the visor (as Samus) one last time, but who knows, maybe I'm crazy and don't understand the English language all too well (I certainly can't type it very good).

I knew corruption would be the last in the prime series but I didnt expect them to push metroid aside, looks like dread is going to be a wish or made by third/other second party developer.

What part of, "this is the last in the Prime trilogy" do you guys not understand?
My guess is that we will see another game where we get behind her visor, but it probably won't be sub-titled as a Prime game.

You might notice a little age since it's 2004 right when MP2:E's time and before more Mario sports titles but I want to share it:
