Okay, I tried to quote something and it came out as gobbleydegook. Anyway, short version: Sakamoto was going to tick people off regardless of how well he pulled off the writing (though admittedly he was a bit flawed with the plot). The Barbie analogy I used earlier was also a way of me saying that people can no longer treat Samus like a doll. Because that's all she used to be: a doll for people to play pretend with. Even in Fusion her personality was archetypal at best. It's times like this where I'm half-tempted to tell Nintendo to give up completely on the "hardcore" as a lot of the time we display ourselves as nothing more than disrespectful, arrogant, selfish brats.
