.. That when Samus puts on her robot suit, she becomes weaker?
I would think that someone who wears a robot suit would become stronger.... But I guess that Samus's robot suit is made by her grandpa on a rainy saturday.

I really do not understand why she bothers to put that thing on. And I was disappointed when I saw ZSS's Final Smash. First I hoped that that blue suit would fall of just like that robot suit, but it is too bad that that is not the case.... :ohwell:

Blue suit falls off.

I think the FS is a total waste too. I was hoping that she would have called in her ship for a bomb-strike or something.

Really? I think a pure steal from Mortal Kombat would've been great. The "Get Over Here!" with her wip, then pulling a Brutality sort of finisher. Just ruthless strike after strike like what Ike does. Then finish it with a kill move, followed by a cocky remark about them staying down.

Perv, and Nintendo just did a horrible job at balancing out the characters. They thought that players would camp to charge up her beam, so they weakened it. They thought players were going to run away to charge up her beam, so they made her slower. They thought her nair was too strong in melee, so they made it weaker and removed it's priority. They thought utilt was too good in melee, so they made it slow. In the end, Samus couldn't handle all the nerfs. We just have to make due with what we have: Screw Attack, Zair, and... uh... yeah.

Wrong terminology gives me a head-ache.

The armor Samus wears is called the "Power Suit." This term has two meanings:

  1. Power Suit can mean the original armor that she is wearing.
  2. It can be a broad term. In other words, the "Power Suit" is simply a shorter term of "powered armorsuit."

Next, I would like to point out that in regard to defense, Samus is not weaker in her armor. She is a heavy character, yet paradoxically, she falls lightly.
