That doesnt really matter though. Its still pandering to male fantasies in a way that makes this media a lot more juvinile than most care to admit

First of all, there is a difference between "sexy" and "sexist".
Second of all, what is the problem with Samus dressing in similar attire to what a significant amount of women wear when exercising? That is relatively common exercise gear, and it is similar to the typical outfit for Women's MMA...
Third, the problem is not about objectification of women, the idea is the general idealization of both sexes in many regards, and I don't really see that as a problem. Its normal that most characters in every medium are attractive, and sometimes, both men and women are put in situations and outfits which highlight their attractive aspects.

Yes there is, and I guess it depends on the situation which way it goes.
What kind os a point is that? What need is there for Samus to wear a bikini in this situation? It's a FIGHT. To the death. Yeah, let's wear a bikini - better look good if I die! There is no need for Samus to run around like that in this situation. None.
Having attractive figures in a video game is one thing, dressing them up as sexy as possible for no reason what so ever is... objectifying.
