This makes no sense at all dude please, are you ok? Are you drunk? Because I know I am, but even drunk I know this makes little sense.

Nah they're making the next Zelda game.
I thought so, but then it turned out they never actually said that as far as I can tell.
Nope. This idea is preposterous. And insane. And offensive. And I don't want Beteshda near any Nintendo IP.
Can Beteshda make fun games? Absolutely.
Are those games full of bad bugs and repetitive contents, which all look like the same after a while, and need the help from the mod community to make them worthwhile? Yes.

I see your logic but its flawed in a couple of places. One of them being is ... lets just say it ... software quality. A messy Metro is just not going to go over well. Big N won't have that. They also don't have the story culture to fit the metroid universe. Howard loves Nintendo and I am sure he would like to do it, but its not in their ball park. But I do get the OPs logic.
Now you want to get real weird? FROM is working on something. They are not saying anything. Would that be weird? Platinum? Someone is doing it, I wonder why its being kept so quiet.

Stop. Everybody is overthinking who is developing MP4.
Uh...

Eh. If they were really getting a big name team on this, they wouldn't burden it with the Prime name. Instead, they'd just create a new Metroid franchise. This is almost certainly being developed internally.
They're bigger than Metroid.

I would actually love a Prime game done by Arkane.
Haha.

Look a Tango Gameworks and Arkane.
Bethesda Softworks would form a studio to make a Metroid Prime-like IP that they own before they make a game for someone else, let alone give it to Bethesda Game Studios .
edit: OK, you didn't actually mean Bethesda Game Studios

I would be more okay with id but only in a hypothetical because I still don't see it ever happening.

God I hope you're right. Half because I actually think it would turn out great and be a huge get, and the other half to spite majority of this thread.

Nintendo gets some 3rd party support that's legit and the crazies come out right away to scare them off.

Bethesda doing MP4? Makes sense, there are quite some space-bugs in previous Metroid games and Bethesda is well known for making bugs in games.
Like, all three Bethesda Switch games are coming from three separate studios. Bethesda Game Studios != Bethesda Softworks. And every Studio is working on / just finished making games except Bethesda Game Studios.
Metorid Prime's segmented level design with separate rooms is literally the worst possible fit with BGS's Creation Engine. You don't expect them to make Metroid Prime, do you? Do you?
This is one of the most insane videogame theories I've ever heard.

Calling it now:
ID software or Machinegames. I wish I could edit the title to clarify ID not Bethesda as developers.

lol no.
Besides, when they said a new team was working on it I assumed they formed a new team. Maybe not, but it's def not Bethesda.

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
Heh you said it.
Y'all need to go play Prey to see how Arkane would knock a Metroid out of the park.
When I think of external studios, Arkane woild easily be my first pick. Just bring in the combat designers from ID or Machine Games to tune up the feel of combat.
They never said it was internal.

The idea of "the worst timeline" never really sunk in with me before. Then I read what the OP is suggesting.
