Man, PM is sure making these alt. costumes look as polished as possible. Seriously, do you think they'd be like art directors of other videogames? I'd think that.

I still think the Bear Climbers are way more impressive. This one's pretty good, though. Metroid Fusion was one of the few Metroid games I ever played, and even then, I can't say I care too much that this was added or not. I never liked the fusion suit, personally.

This is awesome! I noticed the shoulder pads are smaller than varia suit samus, does this mean light suit samus will be getting smaller shoulders, too?

So beautiful.
I wish Smash 4 had alts like this.

The only others I could possibly ask for are Dark Bowser (BiS is too underrated), and DKC Cartoon "Expand Dong" Donkey Kong.

Seriously, if Project M adds in "Expand Dong" I will join the minority who thinks Project M is better than every Smash game.
We can only hope that Smash 4 can possibly have DLC alts?

I didn't say Smash 4 has no good alternate costumes/skins. But Project M does a way better job at it than Sakurai still.
Sakurai and his team has a 3 year deadline on this game so they don't have enough time to do ALL the costumes/skins
(maybe in futrue update when the game comes out) project m on the other hand has ALL the time in the world to do stuff like alternate costumes and skins again just saying.

Project M excites me more than Smash 4 XD. A hack game somehow has more alt costumes added in a single update than an actual game with huge funding, top notch developers, and over 2 years to make it.

PM just gets prettier and prettier.
Not a game though, a mod for a game. They've never have to worry about creating one from the ground up before.
And that funding and effort of the top notch developers you speak of goes to making an ACTUAL game. Compared to that, making alternate skins for characters on your free time is the easiest part. Kind of like giving whole credit to someone for repainting a house when they didn't build it.
And Brawl came out in 2008, and there was never post-release support intended for it; now we are in 2014 and it took this guys like 6 years after the game came out just to add this skins? They sure took their sweet time (See, I can play that game again).
Anyways, adorable how some people think they completely understand how game developing goes.

Basically this. People really need to understand the position Sakurai and his team got put in.

So how does this costume affect Samus's shoulder hit boxes? I specifically remember PMBR saying they might not do this suit because it wouldn't match up properly to them

The hell are you talking about? People were making skins on Brawl Vault way before Project M was a thing.

I'm willing to bet you haven't actually been around to see how Project M has evolved over time and have only heard about it recently. The dev team spent their "sweet time" working on the actual game engine and designing characters. Knockback stacking, stage collision detection, removing input lag, fixing how shields interact with attacks, etc. That stuff takes a lot of work and was the first priority. Now that the engine is basically finished and every character is in (plus creating Roy and Mewtwo from scratch), why not add some extra content like costumes, especially when the updates from then on are mostly just going be bug / balancing fixes?

Regardless of the fact that they didn't build Brawl themselves, P:M's still the most fun I've ever had with a Smash game, and I know many others who will agree. That's not disrespecting Sakurai or Smash 4, it's just how it is.

Honestly, Nintendo should just hire the PM devs and add all this stuff as DLC for Smash 4.
This all I want to say. Seriusly, these are really treating smash bros with a lot of care for being just a bunch of hackers. There really taking serius keeping smash like smash.

...Soooo when can we expect the next update to Project M? Just askin' because I am digging all of the work the backroom and designers are pouring into the mod and I'm anticipating being able to play it again with renewed hype. Kudos to y'all!
We don't know. I'd assume by the end of the year, but there's no official statements on release date.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!! Love the detail work on the textures, and dat cannon. It's accurate to how it was shown to open up in the game's concept art!
More alts for Samus is fine with me! I look forward to seeing what's next for her, and other characters. I bet if they're aiming to replace her Fusion Suit colors for a new blue color scheme, they could use the "blue Samus" from Metroid Prime 2 Echoes' multiplayer for the colors. Or even make their own!

Now I'm curious if Diddy could get a suitable alt...

I would like a masked dedede alt

I support the new Blue Samus, as the very thought of the coinciding costumes came to mind immediately. Samus could use a nice, deep-sea blue suit.

Suggestions for new costumes:
  • Fierce Deity based on the existing OoT Link (Smash 4 has TP FD, PM would have a true MM FD).
  • Hero's Shade from Twilight Princess; he is the Hero of Time from OoT, but appears in TP. Given Link's current costumes repping both games, it's very fitting. If necessary, it could replace gold Link as that may-have-slightly-been-the-inspiration for the palette swap.
  • Proper Blood Falcon costume with the upturned collar, skull headpiece, and spiked pauldron.
  • Donkey Kong Jr.
  • Funky Kong Fashion for DK.
  • Dr. Luigi (single costume would be fine)
  • Tanooki Mario & Luigi
  • Hammer Bros. Ice Climber costumes; Nana and Popo could wear shells & helmets!
  • Waluigi Wario; Classic Wario with long sleeve purple shirt, dark denim, and the upturned L on his hat.
  • Hylia Reborn, Zelda's Goddess attire from Skyward Sword, paired with...
  • Sage of Shadow, Impa's Skyward Sword clothing for Sheik.
  • Marcus McCloud and...
  • James McCloud for Fox (father, son, and grandson).
  • General Pepper's Uniform for Fox.
  • Leon's Pilot Suit for Falco.
  • Pikablu, a Marill-inspired skin for Pikachu (blue/white/red palette).
  • And... Wind Waker Ganondorf.
I would also like shrek goku reggie dedede masked dedede unmasked dedede and shadow
note that pm isnt Santa thats too much

Not much of a Metroid fan, but I have played Fusion. I really like this suit. Awesome job, PMDT.

I haven't played any of the metroid games really.

"This destroyed the parasites within Samus, but left her appearance dramatically altered."

What dot they mean by this line? Her actual body is altered too or her suit is just altered?
