No Metroid 3DS...yet

So I wanted to wait until after the press conference today to post this, just in case, but...the rumor mentioned in the last update turned out to be a miscommunication between Jonathan Ross and the Twitter user who posed the question to him. As the 3DS conference is now over, it's now confirmed that there won't be any new Metroid game for the 3DS...yet. It is a brand new system, and eventually there will be one or more Metroid game for it (hopefully sooner rather than later). Rest assured that once such a game is announced, you'll here about it first right here on MHQ!

She'll just be part of the setting? You mean, just like in the game the level is based on?

OHHHHHHHHHHH, SAMUS, I HOPE YOU KNOW THAT BURN YOUR FEELING ISN'T COMING FROM THE LAVA-FILLED ROOM! THAT WAS AAALLLLL ME!

At the end of the trailer, Samus shows up in morph ball form, which would kinda be a really big hint ;)

The only video I saw of Dead or Alive that had to do with Metroid, Samus wasn't a playable character, but rather part of the setting for the Ridley stage (yeah...not too happy about that). Did you see any other video to suggest that you can play as Samus?
