"At its most general, the Big Good title simply refers to the leader of the largest group opposing the Big Bad. Keep this in mind when suggesting examples."

Since Samus is a freelance bounty hunter and not the leader of any organization, I don't believe she counts as an example.

^ That. Samus is The Hero, not the Big Good. The closest the series has to a Big Good is the Galactic Federation, and even that is called into question.

It was already discussed and debated here. The conclusion was that it doesn't matter if the image came from Other M. That image was the only artwork that showed both Samus and Zero Suit Samus together. And it was voted unanimously by 9 points.

I anticipated about the image controversy and it was the reason why I put the Samus Returns image as a placeholder before motioning for a vote on the Samus' main image. The Other M artwork was selected and that was the end of the debate. You can make a new thread if you happen to find a better image.

The intro needs to be reworked. Baraduke came out in 1985, roughly six years before Samus and starred a female protagonist. In fact, both player characters were female.

Why is there Captain N entries in Samus's page? Quotes are one thing, but I would move all Captain N Samus to its appropriate Character page.

True, although it might be prudent to mention she appears in Captain N.

Perhaps a mention in the main paragraph. And link towards the Captain N. Regardless I've removed the entry and put it in its appropriate location. I also notice some entries like Batman Gambit and Femme Fatale have no context in the actual games or franchise. Samus never once acted as a Femme Fatale in the games and it seems to be a fandom interpretation. Additionally, no one explains how Samus was like Batman in terms of planning. Batman Gambit is when someone makes a plan based on how they anticipate their opponents' actions. And Femme Fatale is when a female uses her sexual appeal to lure men into a trap and kill/capture them. Since I don't recall Samus ever doing either of the two (correct me if I'm wrong), I conclude they were misused tropes, seemingly there to overcompensate her badass demeanor. She's already Badass as she is. She doesn't need exaggerated, non-canonical or false entries to prove it.

Where do those two images come from? Are they official art or fan works?
