Mario Odyssey looks amazing, not sure if I'm sold on rabids crossover.
I have never played a metroid game, so might give it a shot
Not even on the game boy? Damn you're missing out imo.
If you're a fan of Castlevania then you'd like Metroid. It's heavy on backtracking through maps when you've picked up a new item/suit upgrade. Games that utilize that method are actually referred to as "metroidvania" games. Metroid Prime is probably regarded as one of the best games in video game history and if you've got a decent rig, you can get the Prime series on the emulator or even play a GBA emulator on your phone/tablet for Metroid Zero Mission and Metroid Fusion.
