Metroid Discussion

[Swein Forkbeard]

We all know that Metroid is one of the major franchises that has hit the Wii with a great game (Zelda and Mario are the others), but while there's Paper Mario and Cel-Shaded Link, there's no alternate form of Samus Aran. I'm thinking we need one. But what could it be? Here are some that I thought of.

Paper Samus
Cel-Shaded Samus
LEGO Samus
Mechanized Samus

There is Dark Samus and there is the fusion suit, and the varia suit, and the light suit.

Just as Mario has different suits. But there's still Paper Mario.

Also, Paper Mario is Mario and Cel-Shaded Link is Link, but Dark Samus is not Samus. You might as well call Sonic and Shadow the same character in that case.

I don't get what the hell you are trying to say here. Paper Mario is an entirely different spin on the Mario franchise, while Wind Waker and Phantom Hourglass are the same game and Link just with different graphics. Are you asking for a new type of game, or new graphics?

I think he's talking about a different kind of graphical style? But, the cel-shaded look of Paper Mario and Wind Waker don't fit the Metroid series one bit.

Both I guess.
