The problem was that suddenly and inexplicably, Nintendo decided it was time to flip the script and focus on Samus’s femininity.
Yet there she was, speaking in an odd monotone and endlessly braying about the death of the hatchling Metroid that saved her life in Super Metroid. Samus made the Master Chief look like a boy scout. This was a character who singlehandedly took on legions of foes in her games, laying waste to some of the most vile and frightening enemies imaginable. The objection for me, and many other fans, instead was to the words themselves, their tone, and the attitude of the person speaking them. Though the voice could perhaps have been a little throatier and intimidating, it got the job done. It wasn’t that I objected to hearing Samus Aran speak for the first time in that opening cinematic for Metroid: Other M.
