Zero Suit Samus is the only thing of worth the Metroid series has created.

>>3910309
Get that fake Samus out of here, this thread is only for real Samus.

The Varia suit makes her hair green. It's normally a brownish orange/blonde. Only someone who has actually played the original Metroid would know that.

I wonder why she looked like this in the first game and then never again? It's not a bad design at all.

>>3910317
/thread

How embarrassing.

>>3910309
>>3910303
Both ZSS and the leotard are very sexy designs. This is a fact.

>>3910317
Oops! Sorry, I guess it's been a while since I played Metroid.

Actually, it's been a while since I've played any video game (besides Minecraft with bae). I love video games, but lately I just don't have the drive to play 'em.

What makes Samus such a sexy character?

Can this be a 80/90s leotard thread? pretty pls?

>>3910317
Came here to post this.

>>3910319
Magenta and green is an appealing color combo found commonly in nature. It's feminine, yet hints at danger, like the lurid yawn of a venus flytrap. It fits her character way better than the red and yellow of her power suit, I think.

>>3910335
Sure. I could always use more Jill/Vinyl fanart, if you've got it :P

>>3910303
It's called artistic license, just like they've done with Mario and other charecters, silly tripfag.

>>3910347
do you have blue hair by chance?

The world needs more formal gown Samus

>>3910303
N-no... that's just... umm.. that's just... palette restrictions...

>>3910359
I did at one point. Why do you ask?

>>3910319
>>3910347

Palette and sprite limitations.

>>3910335
Noriko is my favorite anime character ever. I wouldn't say she's my waifu but I do respect her quite a bit and consider her a strong role-model for me.

>>3910317
So what you're saying is the varia suit is radioactive?

Samus is a Transgender Woman. Deal With It.

>>3910379
This.

>>3910379
>>3910380
Not retro. Please keep it in /v/.

>>3910384
Samus is definitely retro. Her name used to be Sam. Look it up.

>>3910315
Other M was my wife's son's favorite Metroid for Nintendo. I got him to play some of the other older games I enjoyed and he said they didn't age well.

>>3910315
Looks like a man. Coincidence?

>>3910390
>>3910425

I just don't think it very wise to indulge in so-called "ironic humor" used by /v/ermin fools that enjoy lashing at one another because they believe that irony to be sincere. I also don't believe you should pay any attention to the fools from which these jokes have originated from. If you give them attention then they will be something, pay them no mind and it would be as if they're talking to themselves and you will be living a more migraine-free life.

I think it'd be best to explore alternatives to joke-telling rather than relying on /v/ermin-brand ghetto humor.

>>3910329
>Actually, it's been a while since I've played any video game (besides Minecraft with bae). I love video games, but lately I just don't have the drive to play 'em.

Irrelevant for the discussion.
You only know of CGA Samus by the JUSTIN BAILEY code.

Come to think of it, she looks a lot like Milia from Macross, what with the whole green and red color scheme going on.

>>3910352

The ass was flat

fucking japs, no taste in posteriors

>>3910303
The character design, much like the game and most of its sequels (up to but not including the GameCube sequels), have aged poorly. The bland sprites and boring gameplay riddled with artificial difficulty makes this series a chore to play through.

>>3910474
Spoken like a true millennial. Metroid was atmospheric as fuck when it first came out, and the gameplay was only boring if you got yourself lost. underages can't do anything without a minimap and a bigass objective marker.

>bland sprites
nigga have you even looked at Super Metroid?

>>3910443
Actually I've legitimately beaten Metroid fast enough to unlock suitless Samus. Most recently in 2013, when I was racing my girlfriend at the time.

>>3910451
Can't unsee!

I used to think Max (can't remember his Japanese name, sorry) was so hot.

>>3910474
>artificial difficulty
see pic

>>3910367
I'd dooo dooo dooo dooo dooooooooooo - oooo her, if ya know what I mean.

>>3910303
The real Samus Aran is actually a transgendered woman.

She's also 6'3'', unlike the current womanlet "Samus".

>>3910495
>Most recently in 2013, when I was racing my girlfriend at the time.

Not relevant for the argument.

>>3910493
>Let's make a game needlessly obtuse with no clear path because that'll be fun.

>Why come up with more than a handful of enemy designs when we can just palette swap and paste the same fucking enemy everywhere over the entirety of the game.

>>3910495
>And lets make these blue bug things take 20 more bullets to kill than the orange bug things because blue is stronger than orange

Truly visionaries who were ahead of their time.

>>3910529
>lets make these blue bug things take 20 more bullets to kill than the orange bug things because blue is stronger than orange
You have missiles for a reason. Use them. Alternatively, realize you don't necessarily have to kill every living thing that you see, tempting though the prospect may be.

>>3910509
Geemer? I just met 'er!

Why the fuck is this retarded thread still up.

>>3910303
t.dobson

>>3910529
All of those things apply equally to the Zelda series (even down to the blue/orange enemy strengths)

Metroid is a classic. Sorry it's not casual enough for you.

>>3910372
I respect Noriko's hairy 80s beaver. But, Jung Freud is best girl.

>>3910334
The Chozo were trying to create a living sex toy.

>>3910645
>>3910372
If you were true otoko you would go for both at once.

>>3910645
>>3910693
Jung doesn't inspire me to aim for higher heights though. She doesn't make me want to aim for the top.

On an unrelated note I managed to snag the art-book in amazing condition for just forty bucks. It's nice.

>>3910303

She's actually a brunette.

>>3910719
Neat artbook, that it is. I managed to pick up the B-Club film comics along with Vol 1 and 2 of Drakuun at a flea market a few months back.

>>3910719
Consider me jelly.
>>3910693
Tru.

>>3910339

Me too.

Samus is a Brunette.
And Mods are Asleep.

Green hair was from justin bailey meme.
because you started with varia suit.

and it just got more green when you ahd missiles selected.

>>3910738
>Vol 1 and 2 of Drakuun
dang I wish my local flea market wasn't shit

>>3910738
That's super robo cool, dude. I wish I had 'em too. Maybe someday I'll find a copy in the wild but until then, lucky you.

>>3910746
The book even has sketches of the strop game's scenes too! Its even got an ad FOR the game IN the art book. It's amazing.

>>3910493
>Metroid was atmospheric as fuck when it first came out,

It still is.

Zero Mission removed all the atmosphere from the original game.

NES Metroid is still downright oppressive and causes despair in the player.

I think not having a map is a big part of that, and the level design and sound design.

Kraids lair in the NES game is haunting music. but it's all epic memery in thelater games.

>>3910760
even more jelly. did you buy it online?

>>3910759
>>3910760
I was pretty surprised myself, honestly. I've seen old Dark Horse localizations of stuff like Orion, which I picked up there along with some Gall Force volumes, but something unlocalized like the B-club film comics and Drakuun was pretty unprecedented. I probably winced when the dude handling the booth called them "Chinese comics" when he was relaying to his son my offer over the phone.

>>3910769
Yeah, amazon... Dot COM. Pic related's the ad.

Also ah, they're more like line-art without any color. Compared to the stage of drawing you posted.

>>3910771
Hahaha, that's amazing. You lucked the hell out.

>>3910776
Oh yeah, those GKs. I remember seeing one on Ebay once, can't remember if it was a Thai recast though.

>>3910763

She's a brunette by default, honey. The green hair is just a color swap to represent the Varia Suit. You would've known that if you had unlocked it the proper way instead of using a meme password.

>>3910596
It's been a while since I read this comic, did it always talk about localization in the first panel? I don't remember that. Kinda undermines the entire rest of the comic when you admit they're not actually changing the characters, just undoing changes that were done previously.

They are characters from the drama CD Im guessing. They appear on the covers of all the albums.

It must be just a coincidence that Hiroshimoot has the same name as Popful Mail artist Hiroyuki Nishimura 西村博之

>>3911626

It seems to me you might be lying somewhere either with this statement or one of your last few ones.

lotta virginity in this thread.

>her hair is brown not green REEEEEEEEEEE

>>3912041
I agree. You and me are the COOL guys who post in the thread about an attractive video game chick on the retro video gaming board of a Japanese anime website - get these NERDS outta here!

>>3912050
hitler would never say such a thing

>>3912041
Projecting much?

I personally don't give a crap what hair color Nintendo draws their character, considering early NES games had limited color palette and are hardly indicator of how the character designers intended them to look like anyway. I just find it hilarious that there are people who still insists that green is Samus' hair color based on a meme password and get mad over Zero Suit Samus like OP and you.

>>3911553
>it's a "gamer thinks Samus's hair is green because she hasn't played the game in about four years and that's a pretty trivial detail" episode

>>3911992
Nope, girlfriend. I'm bi, though I've dated enough people to know I definitely prefer boys.

Guys, please, I came into this thread to jack off to Samus, not to think about trannies fucking men.

>>3912064
You created the thread retard, so yea don't blame your retardation on others when you cant remember the "trivial detail" that you made the thread about.

Don't talk down to OP just because she's a fembot.

>>3911574
It always did. Dobson literally believes that the American DiC cartoon versions of the characters are the REAL originals and Nintendo of Japan ruined them. It seems like he was never aware that that's how the characters had always been in Japan and not something that they made up when he left collage.

Nothing at all, except you can't have kids, have a higher risk of breast cancer, an average life expectancy of 35 (happy belated birthday, by the way), are generally considered less attractive than your cisgender cousins, more likely to engage in sex work, more likely to be sexually assaulted, and have to pop pills for the rest of your (un)natural life.

I shouldn't even reply, but here goes.

I was born in 1990, played some NES metroid in like 1995 or 1996, my uncle had his nintendo at my grandparents - we usually played his other games but one day i asked about this cartridge and he showed me it (and the justin bailey code ("it lets you play as a girl and you have a better gun"))... I was blown away by the music and gameplay, never beat it but played it for hours.

When i was 12 I bought a gamecube for the sole purpose of playing metroid prime (was not disappointed).

I didn't play super until March 2017. On an emulator (I'm sorry).

It has way way better atmosphere than prime 3 and 2, and actually kind of took the shine off the apple regarding prime 1. Because prime 1 becomes such an obvious remake of super (even down to one of my favorite music tracks in the game), I feel that this my love for it slightly diminished.

I still maintain Prime 2 is the best in the series, but I legitimately understand why many Super fans put it above Prime, despite Prime being probably the most groundbreaking game on the GC, and it's ideas still being copied to this day (look at Dark Souls for example).

Prime doesn't stand up the same way to people playing it with keyboard and mouse using wii trilogy version - in fact, being able to aim like that actually breaks many of the encounters (such as baby sheegoths), and having a 2x speed for backtracking hurts the game a bit.

Regardless, Super is dripping with atmosphere (especially red soil brinstar area, and maridia, and lower norfair). And I don't see how are any could say it isn't unless they just don't like 2d games in general.

Like, I really enjoyed Brigador, Underrail, and Rainworld, and Super has more ato sphere than them all. I wonder how someone who only likes prime would feel about those games.

Anyway even though I played Prime first, I have area huge, huge appreciation of Super and I was just desperate for some real atmosphere after playing fusion.

>The real Samus Aran has green hair and wears a magenta leotard.

No that's Justin Bailey.

>>3910303
No its not. Green hair and pink leotard is american only. In fact her no suit mode as a whole was american only and that green hair version was used as that modes varia suit. Her normal self has always been blonde hair even in the credits of the first game, end of discussion.
