Metroid needs (and deserves) a reboot. Caution - Lots of gifs!

Samus' gender is equally irrelevant yet it's made her famous. People obviously do give a shit, it's a good marketing tool.

Metroid isn't Power Rangers either, which is what you're suggesting.

Samus's gender is relevant because you actually see her. You can't hide her gender. For her sexual orientation to become relevant, you'd have to introduce a love interest, which means a love story, which it the antithesis to what you should be doing in a Metroid game. Nobody gives a shit.

And cut it out with the power rangers garbage.

Have you even played a Metroid game before?

Cut it out with constantly trying to turn Metroid in a 3D beat 'em up. Nintendo only acknowledged two styles of Metroid, not 3. It's never going to happen.

Team Ninja is responsible for that "Power Ranger" crap you unreasonably keep bringing up. There are more than one way to approach a third person 3D Metroid. But for some reason, you don't seem to have far enough a vision to imagine a compelling one.

Except Nintendo, and Sakamoto in particular, were heavily involved. They were responsible for the biggest flaws in the game.

Third person Metroid got its chance and it blew it. Time for a beautiful 2.5D Metroid game or another Metroid FPA (not to be confused with the FPS that is FF).

Oh and Halo 5 proves that you can have the shinespark in an FPS game.
