It arguably was sixteen years before that, when The Colony happened.

I don't think the point was to ever make it a "genre", it was just pointing out that it was still a Metroid game.

If you went in expecting a game like GoldenEye or Halo or something, you might have been thrown for a loop.

Yes? Not every first person game involves aiming and shooting.
