Masahiro Sakurai, the creator of Super Smash Bros., has shown off a new outfit for Zero Suit Samus based on her appearances in Metroid Fusion and Zero Mission.
As you can see from the images, Samus is definitely showing a bit more skin than most of her other outfits. Sakurai states that this decision was a last minute insert into the game.
Looking at the number of days we have left for development, it would be an impossible task to create this… That’s what I told my staff,” he revealed. “But thanks to the determination of her female designer, these Zero Suit outfits got completed in time. From the ending of Metroid: Zero Mission, here’s Samus in shorts! You can use the same outfit variations in both the 3DS and Wii U versions.
What do you think of Samus in shorts? Is this costume too revealing? Samus has a history of showing some skin so should this really shock us? Share your thoughts in the comments.
