No. No. And no.
First off, there's nothing wrong with Samus being a pretty and sexualized girl. You play 100% of the game in her suit, so doesn't matter how big are her boobs or how pretty is her face. In fact, it shows that also pretty people is capable of awesome things. Your proposal for the zero suit is just disgusting. Horrible. Terrible. Words can't say how bad is the idea.
Secondly, Metroid doesn't need a reboot. What Metroid needs is to be honest and fix everything wrong with Other M because there's a lot of potential in the mix of 3D and 2D series. They can start with an isolated game with a new refined mechanics of Other M. No orders, no Adam, no NPC's. Just Samus exploring a complete planet, Pirate's Stronghold.
The only thing I agree is that should be scary again. Love u Prime 2. |
Samus was prettier and still sexualized before. That's not the issue. Samus looks like an otaku's pervy fantasy now. The problem isn't that she's sexy, its that she looks rediculus. She looks like a blow up anime sex doll. There shouldn't even be a zero suit. That whole premise is idiotic. It adds nothing to her character or her arsenal, and only is there for easy cosplay. But if she wears something in her Power Suit, it definitely shouldn't be a bright blue spandex leotard. The Kim Bessinger Samus wore underwear, boots, and a tank top. In Super, she wore nothing, because the suit was bonded with her. In Zero Mission and beyond, she's wearing an aqua S&M body suit. There is definitely something wrong with the oversexualization of her now. It doesn't match her original character at all, which was amazonian. She was tall, and strong, and athletic. Now she looks like a skimpy highschool cheerleader.
You can't "fix" Other M and Fusion and Zero Mission. They are cannot and the garbage and plot inconsistancies they introduced in the story are canon. They can't be ignored or fixed. That's the thing about storytelling. Everything is permanent. You can't "no Adam" because he's indegral to Metroid now. You can't "no NPCs" because people like the GFT and the hunters are integral to the canon of Metroid now.
A reboot is desperately needed.

It doesn't affect anyone nor the image of the franchise if Samus is naked. At the end of the day, people will remind their battles against Metroids rather than the sexy ass of Samus. For that kind of pervert content there's Smash.
And, we don't need a reboot, and I'm not talking about forgetting Other M. I'm talking about a sequel with the premise of my latest post.
