Please don't turn Metroid into a Sonic tier whinefest.
For plot? I happily will.
Metroid, Metroid 2, Super Metroid had a closed plot-arc. They weren't designed to have sequels or prequels or extra stuff added on. it was a pretty tight well-defined plot. (And frankly pretty well-written, particularly the Metroid II instruction manual).
Every plot they tried to add in the modern games felt decidedly tacked-on and a little bit silly.
For gameplay--gameplay of the modern games is fine--no real complaints there.
