Team Ninja being respectful with Samus’ image

“Every female character in our games is as attractive as possible, both inside and out. There has to be something attractive. But as long as we provide that in the one place – the inside – that’s what’s important with this game.” – Team Ninja boss Yosuke Hayashi

Gamers familiar with Team Nina’s games are probably aware of how some of the women are portrayed in the company’s games. In the case of Metroid though, it’s for the best that the developers are taking a more conservative approach
