If you're not looking specifically for 2D games then Metroid Prime is easily the best Metroidvania you haven't played yet. For 2D only, Aquaria and Shadow Complex are my go-to recommendations, though Shadow Complex borrows heavily from Super Metroid. Different controls though, and the controls are easily Super Metroid's weakest area (even on a controller).

Edit: You should also absolutely play Metroid Zero Mission if you liked Metroid Fusion.

Forgot to list Zero Mission on the list, played it in the past and really enjoyed it. Have also played and enjoyed the Prime games - didn't list them because I was mentally focusing on 2D games for whatever reason.

Will add Aquaria and Shadow Complex to the list.
