Not quite sure how her suit works but wouldn't she want the most mobility possible?

Well I have the Aegis 4000 series (model 4120X, to be specific), which does have this feature.

Samus must have the Aegis 3000 series.  AC was present but not that great.  The freon kept leaking mostly.

Plus it appears that her suit gets blown up every time she goes somewhere anyway, so maybe that further complicates it.
I must find a way to use "burninate" more in my daily speech.

I didn't say I did either, only that I've seen far too many people with pictures of her in their icons/signatures all over hell to believe that the internet hasn't taken a shine to her.

Bottom line: your average horny teenager will be enticed by a picture of her on the cover of the game, which I'm certain will happen.

Frankly, I'm surprised they included her as well. The whole point of the Metroid games was that Samus was only ever shown to the player if they beat the game as fast as possible. Yeah, it was a cheap T&A ordeal, but seeing her like that was supposed to be some kind of reward for beating the game quickly.

And that flows into my OTHER point that there was NO reason to give Samus an alternative and more revealing costume. I never once recall seeing a thread on a SSB board about how Samus should come out of her suit in the next SSB game and I was stunned to see her in there.

I being only a casual Metroid guy, wasn't the Zero Suit lifted from an earlier game? It's not like they created it for T&A. And what the big harm? It's a T-rated game and the outfit isn't any worse than that of the average Power Ranger. I for one am glad the games becoming less and less of a guy-and-creature-fest like the first one was, and providing variety in both the characters and their body types. Plus, it's not even her default look, honestly.

And let's not forget that Samus' suit is extensively modified, not to mention the addition and inclusion of additional chozo technology.

Darth Vader's suit supposedly has a urine reception unit that recycles it and converts it into energy.

Does Samus' suit have such a function?

Energy? More like a water recycler, ala a Fremen still suit. Also, it's likely to feature some sort of negative-feedback in order for suit-assisted strength enhancement, ala the suits that the novel Starship Troopers describes.

I never said that. Stop putting words in my mouth.

All I'm saying is that it's not like Nintendo to use sex appeal, ESPECIALLY alongside family-friendly icons like Mario and Pikachu.

Well, I don't recall any potty breaks in any of the Metroid games.  Come to think of it, there aren't any bathrooms, either.

Sure it does.  That's twice 2 M-rated games were made with such content, and that's TWICE Nintendo has published them.

It's definitely a trend.

Wait how am I putting words into your mouth?

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.


So I posted the metroid pictures.

So I merely said how can 2 games establish what Nintendo would and wouldn't do with the franchise?

I don't think beings that just let their waste fall where it may can be described as "advanced."

Alright, aside from the male fantasies of the eccentric Gunpei Yoko, where has Nintendo included anything even loosely resembling T&A in a game less than M?

The first appearance of the Zero Suit was in Zero Mission I believe, which hasn't been long ago.

Yes, because my point is the presence of sex appeal in Nintendo games is immensely uncommon and if all you can summon is one meagre example featured at the end of a game made by an eccentric dead Japanese guy, then I don't think you've countered my point at all.

You first said NEVER.

You're backtracking to say "immensely uncommon" so my point was very valid to your initial argument.

Hey, I'm no Gunpei Yokoi fan, but for him to be reduced to "an eccentric dead Japanese guy" is just wrong!
