are we ready to talk about how zero suit samus was maybe the worst thing to happen to the metroid series or is zero mission still untouchable

the end screen outfit rewards were always incredibly uncomfortable don't get me wrong but at least they were a decidedly out of game thing

ppl often say samus is an example of a good female gaming protag and i agree samus is a good character and female but i do not think her being a woman is handled well at all actually i think its gotten better over time tho i love Dread Samus personally smth i wish we got more of but wont is video

essays about how nintendo handles gender and stuff because it's clear a shift is occurring as many of the oldheads retire or lose control and younger devs (such as splatoon devs) have more power in creative decisions, bc there is a lot of bad and a lot of good from the different teams at ninty

specifically i think aonuma is a genuine misogynist and zelda is one of the franchises that's resisting change the most

sorry to post later but it just annoys me how much zelda gets to be conservative af while everybody else is moving on fortune's weave got rid of gendered classes. splatoon has nb characters and yuri. pokemon has significant diversity in its designs now. xenoblade genesis has a female lead.
