In a recent post on a metroid thread, someone brought up a great point. Could Samus Aran be the next Master Chief? I mean, could Samus do for Nintendo what Master Chief did for Xbox? No one will argue that a lot of gamers forego the Gamecube due to Nintendo' s " Family Friendly" reputation. But with this obviously dark and seriously sloppy frag fest that is clearly not for anyone without a shread of pubic hair, could Samus be reviving the more adult crowd' s need for nintendo?
