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.

It has alien or mushroom blood Nothing red. They also keep it toned down a bit to keep the idea in focus. You are reminded you are in a alien world and everything is out to get you. Red blood again cheapens that feeling.
