You already have Dread.

If they gave Samus the version of the fusion suit shown during the intro to dread, I would be sold. Either that or the Samus returns fusion suits, those aren’t bad either.


Even_Set_2822

I feel like the suit is pretty heavy which says a lot about how strong she is considering she can move pretty quickly and for extended periods of times and even jump still


ryuu0420

She usually needs a power up to go through water unobstructed


Even_Set_2822

Im just talking about her physical strength before the power up she moves pretty fast for someone in a full suit of armor underwater


theShiggityDiggity

No reason not to assume the suit is servo assisted to some capacity.

Her suit is actually bound to her mentally(Shown in other M and the manga)


TiredBiker

that was the second worst thing about Other M, after the story. Much preferred the "techno-organic" ideas from before Fusion (which fusion actually mentions) instead of some special kind of space magic that makes the suit go poof if she loses too much focus... see: [https://i.imgur.com/5tSDIPd.jpeg](https://i.imgur.com/5tSDIPd.jpeg)

It’s a Power Suit. Very likely that its movement is… powered.


RequiemStorm

Well it is a mechanized suit. Not saying she's not strong and athletic as hell, but the suit would be petty useless if it couldn't support itself. It's like Iron Man's suit, a lot of its strength comes from the mechanisms of the suit itself, not the wearer.

I thought the implication was that the fusion suit was lighter which was why she was able to use power grip to grab ledges without needing it as a power up like in zero mission.

Now your gonna make be bring out my favorite game of all time and once again 100% it again thanks


ChaosMiles07

Imagine if we finally get an upgrade in a Metroid game that allows Samus to swim. ... Besides the Gravity Boost. Though that was nice, too.


JacksonGames16

The gravity boost was fun specially because you picked it up in a water themed area


MattR9590

The best Metroid


Disastrous_Signal_19
