Ruthless and emotionless =/= bad mammajamma. She was whiny and wimpy in Other M, and I definitely didn't like that at all.

This is a whole 'nother topic though.

One can be a bad mammajamma with out being ruthless. Seems like you didn't play super metroid.

Samus drops the Morph ball bombas.

Ruthless helps her look more like a bad mammajamma. Never watched Mad Max huh (Or any Mel Gibson movie at that)? And obviously I've beaten Super Metroid. 100% at that with all three endings unlocked. How about you?

And of course being ruthless and emotionless =/= bad mammajamma but it shows sides of her character. She never talks and only shows pain.

Well samus obviously had feelings for Adam and the baby metroid. (Hence the super metroid crack)

And being ruthless doesn't make you look like more of a bad mammajamma. In the end you just look like a duck.

I mean wolverine is a bad mammajamma and he's not ruthless.

She never shows anything (well, emotions, anyway. ahem), which makes it really hard to pin down her character. Or if by "pain" you mean her invincibility flash when she gets hit by a baddie, in which case that's quite true.

Either way, a lot of these reviewers from time to time love to bust out controversal reviews just so they can gain attention instead of delivering another samo samo by the books review. Tommy Tallarico is the perfect example. Scoring Super Smash Bros with a 4/10 and saying it's a complete button masher shows that he's hardly played the game. lol Even his earlier review of Super Mario 64 had me scratching my head. Those guys At Electronic Playground tend to be pretty hit and miss. The show itself? No thanks.

i'd rather trust the reviewers of NL instead of G4, yet at the end of the day, it's up to you whether or not to purchase a game, regardless of what s/he said. also, in recent years, there has to be a tendency for some reviewers to rank nintendo games lower.

that same year when other M came out, EW (entertainment weekly) gave kirby's epic yarn the accolade of 'worst game of 2010' . i couldn't believe it.

She never showed true emotions in Super Metroid let alone her feelings for Adam in Fusion. Up until Other M we really didn't know how she felt. And being ruthless does help make you look more badass. Look up the word "ruthless" in the dictionary.

No I mean she yells when she gets shot. So she's obviously human.

I think we have a different definition of baddonkey. A pitiless killer devoid of compassion and mercy is not someone I'd look up to or admire. If it was portrayed as a fault of hers that she was struggling with, I'd get that, but you're talking about it like it's a good thing.

lmao tbd.

I have many different definitions for bad mammajamma. I could list over a hundred inspiring characters but that would be off topic.

Updated versions of the original Trilogy, full color and updated sprites, with 3D effects for a Metroid Trilogy on 3DS: including unlockable galleries, AR cards, boss rush, new endings and a special anniv. CD

Nintendo could have been working on something like that to release in early August.

Metroid 2 is story relevent to Super Metroid I guess but I've never played it and I enjoyed Super Metroid for the masterpiece it is.

They were too busy not making Metroid Dread to do anything for the 25th anniversary.
