It will never work to trick people like that

Samus got away with it b/c the majority of the crowd was horny straight males, they saw chic in bikini and would let it slid

If it were a gay dude…epic firestorm and the game would have sales dry up among the crowd you were targeting (however the gay gamer community would grab the game with open arms)

But the group your trying to trick into it would rebel on a massive scale

Plus with the available amount of info in the net these days something that epic would never stay secret

There are people who to this day see Brawl and go "Whoa, Samus was a chick all along?"

Nobody's done it before, so there's a vacuum to fill.  The first company to fill that vacuum with a game that isn't really stupid will get a whole bunch of money.  And the controversy would help sales like it was a Hot Coffee mod.

I'd play any game with a gay protagonist.  I want more diversity in my protagonists.  I want to play as more old people, women, gays, babies, and inanimate objects.

Ding Ding Ding we have a winner!!! It'll have to be an independant dev(keep the bloodsucking suits away!) and a brave publisher prepared to cop the wrath of the outraged media and forum meltdowns.
