The operative word is he "could" say that, but he doesn't. Until he does give a direct command to do so, it doesn't qualify. And no, I'm not telling you that Samus interacts with the GF more in Other M. What I'm telling you is that Samus cooperates and acts towards the same goal with Federation troopers (i.e. the very definition of a joint mission) far more in Other M than in Corruption. Even without direct cooperation, Samus' objectives in Other M are basically the exact same as the soldiers; search the ship for suvivors. In Corruption, the only time they are the same are the "protect the troopers" mission. She destroys the seeds without any cooperation from soldiers, she boards the Valhalla and takes control of the Leviathan without any cooperation from soldiers, and she invades Phaaze and destroys Dark Samus without any direct cooperation from Federation soldiers. The objectives she's trying to accomplish are always different than the ones the Federation soldiers are pursuing; i.e. not a joint mission. The last point about making the Prime series non canon would make the entire series non-canon as well. I agree Other M's portrayal of Samus is terrible, but as far as canoncity is concerned, it's just horrible writing and nothing more. |
Last reply because you clearly don't get my point on Dane and Adam. Both Samus and the federation cooperate together to Invade and take down the pirates homeworld (joint mission by your definition) that alone is MORE cooperation on a BIGGER scale and FAR MORE IMPORTANT that the cooperation Samus had with Adam and crew (which was none because as I said Adam and company are COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT). So even if you don't want to recognize the whole prime 3 game as a joint mission, you can't deny that the invasion to the pirate homeworld (not just samus protecting the troops) is a joint mission, as both the federation and samus fight together to take them down, and that mission alone is more important than whatever interaction you think Samus had with Adam and the others because they don't help her at all. Take Adam and the others and you know what happens? Samus finishes the mission faster. Take Dane and the federation and you know what happens? Samus has a harder time taking down the space pirates (not saying is impossible because is Samus and she can do anything).
