Be it through that or ZSS, I'm pointing out that Nintendo never would have had anything like this in a previous game, at all.

This update made me realize something...That I wish that they showed small clips of the Character/Item/Stage/Final Smash in action...

Seeing Palutena in this screen is amazing, but in motion should be STUNNING...

Personally, considering her involvement, I'm expecting her not to move at all actually... just appear and then "flash away" or something as the minions move onto the scene.

I agree that that model is wasted on just a final smash.

Hopefully, she'll at least wave her scepter around or something.

What kind of bizarre perversion makes Daisy's third eye something sexual?

I see her appearing in a flash of light, raising her scepter (along with her clothes and hair blowing in the wind), and then she'll disappear in time for the Centurions to buzz the playing field...

No, I meant Brawl. SSBB will still sell 6 million+ copies with or without Z-Suit Samus or any other sex appeal. I'm just saying that it's clear they went out of their way to add it.

Oh . . . I'm going to agree with Bill on this I just think it's a design choice. What are they going to do, advertise these few segments so overly horny teenagers will be like "zomg a bare ass! must have!!!1111one!!!"?

And the rest of the internet pretty much disagrees with you about ZSSamus.

The majority of the internet is weird and sex(iness) deprived.

Zero Suit Samus is not sexy.

What about Metroid 3 and 4?

I don't care what the rest of the internetz thinks abt how hawt ZSSamus is, I don't like Nintendo turning Samus into a big breasted, blond haired, barbie doll bimbo, which is in contrast to her original design in Super Metroid and even Fusion.

Yeah, I mean the whole point of doing quick time runs in games like Super Metroid was for some quick, and lame T&A...

She actually looks like a strong character in those pics, compared to the now huge breasted barbie doll look.

I wasn't questioning your opinion.

Though I do think the Super Metroid look suits her the best though for non-barbie looks.

...really? I mean, I could see that in the Super Metroid pic, but the Gameboy one?

Anyway, I will throw in my two cents that I was slightly disappointed upon first seeing Zero Suit Samus in Brawl. I always considered her the "Ripley" of the video game universe, who threw norms out the window, while that look pretty much subjected her to those very stereotypes. Oh well, I'm not expecting it to be carried into the Prime franchise so... meh.

Metroid II sucks so it doesn't count, everything was wrong with that game. My main point is that this new Zero Suit Samus doesn't appear to be the type of woman that would be one of the most feared bounty hunters in the world and a "scrapper" so to speak.

Ok, we'll give her large breasts and bigger muscles than before.

Kairon · « **Reply #2166 on:** August 09, 2007, 08:37:27 AM »

*it suddenly dawns on Kairon that he's been judging Samus based on her appearance*

*ashamed*

They made her chest larger in Fusion.

Well that is the one aspect I don't like, but at least Fusion tried to not go overboard which NIntendo is doing now (Zero Mission was really the start of this new design)

Adrock · « **Reply #2169 on:** August 09, 2007, 08:53:46 AM »

I always felt that Nintendo was trying to downplay Samus' so-called sex appeal with the Zero Suit by showing less skin. Yeah, it's skin tight, but so were the black top and shorts in Super Metroid and Fusion. With Zero Mission, it just seems like they were trying a new art design, so I'm not sure they were trying to doll her up or anything. Maybe I have to replay Zero Mission though.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #2170 on:** August 09, 2007, 09:32:49 AM »

I'm trying to figure out how giving Samus more feminine traits somehow makes her unable to kick the same amount of ass she always has... =|

Kairon · « **Reply #2171 on:** August 09, 2007, 09:40:14 AM »

Guys! STOP IT! We're discriminating against beautiful people!

You don't get to complain about art and design if you've got something anime inspired as your avatar.

Wow really?

Yeah anime has nothing to do with art and design and is terrible. /sarcasim

Well I certainly have a shortage of plucky young adolescent boys with wild long hair wielding swords where they save the world alongside their childhood female friend.

I really wish every company in the world would suddenly use that template as their RPG main character, because it's such an untapped resource.

Hey - maybe they could make the girl look like she's 12. That would be awesome.
