Samus Aran from Metroid in the GA-HQ Video Game Character DB
Samus Aran the main protagonist of the Metroid series which debuted back in 1986 on the NES is one of the few female characters in video games who are not over-sexualized or cute, in fact, she might be the most badass woman in the complete video game history. In the games, you see her in almost all cases in the different varia suits she wears to shoot, roll herself into a ball, place bombs, and more. As far as I know, Samus Aran is also the only female Nintendo character besides Princess Peach maybe who was made the main protagonist of a whole series. Samus also became a character with multiple versions of her (Zero Suit Samus in the Super Smash Bros. Games. |
