It's a damn shame, because the apparent takeaway message for that disaster was "never have Zelda do anything but be a damsel in distress again."
Even one of my favorites, Wind Waker, takes an interesting and fun and seemingly new pirate character and then the moment she's revealed to be Zelda all the tiresome old beats kick in. :debord-tired:
To be fair, Team Ninja also made the sixth and seventh generation Ninja Gaiden games (OH SHIT THEY'RE ON STEAM NOW :xi-pog:). Also, correct me if I'm wrong but I was under the impression that it wasn't Team Ninja who were responsible for Other M's story and characterisation but rather the Metroid head honcho himself

I still have no idea why nintendo let the sex doll volleyball simulator devs make a metroid game
