Enough with this myth that M-rated = juvenile. Silent Hill isn't juvenile. Bioshock isn't juvenile.

Metroid doesn't lose anything by embracing what it's already been doing to a fuller and more effective extent.

Metroid doesn't need to be anymore than it is. Forcing more violence and gore into Metroid does make it more Juvenile. Metroidis a series about atmosphere and often the less it shows you and less you know is what makes Metroid work. Adding more blood and violence cheapens it and removes a massive aspect of the build up of atmosphere.

It's not forcing anything; Metroid already has blood and violence. It's had mutilated corpses and splattering guts since Prime 1. Metroid is and always has been a dark series inspired by the film Alien. Embracing this fully would simply be fulfilling the franchise's inherent potential.
