Link (Legend of Zelda) vs. Samus (Metroid)

Originally posted by The Scenario
Thought so, it's a cool image. Samus can fire five missiles, boomerang can have five targets. Assuming it doesn't break because magic, though the Gale could take bomb blasts.

Link calls three allies to fight, making it difficult to get any missiles through. 'K, Samus' ship nukes them from orbit.

For example:

Exactly. I've always wondered about these two because both have such rich history to them, so it seems such an even fight. Damn, I wish I could see it! 🙂

It is my headcanon that Samus is Link's direct descendant.

That for some reason makes sense to me. It's a brilliant theory, but that would make the scans you posted extremely wrong. 😘 However, if they were related, both would have the Triforce.

Have you considered writing this?

Actually, yes. But I think about writing a lot of things and I'm surprisingly lazy.

Hmmm, perhaps we could team up some time? I'll have to do a bit of research, of course.

Would be sweet if one of y'all did do this, i'd sure as hell read it.

You're more than welcomed to join me if I write it. Of course, that would have to be ok with Scream. I'd rather not produce his idea without him being part of it though.

I'm hardly the only one to have thought about this. I'm almost certain Scenario's considered Samus descending from Link as possible too, and others must've. They share a certain look and tenacity, the comparison is hard not to draw. Feel free to work on it.

I may pick it up myself. I know what I'd want to happen if I did, but putting the words in order is the hard part.

I couldn't really contribute to the characters, never really played enough of either of these guys but I'd be willing to help with in other areas.

I feel ya. I have a vocabulary for writing, but I can never fully line everything out. I know where I want to go with things, but I never know where to start or how to get there. I feel this idea would best be done collaboratively.

Then I recommend you play them. Nintendo has such great material with so much potential for deep storytelling that they never seem to fully capitalize on. Regardless, the franchises are timeless, and you shouldn't miss out any further.

Going right for the invincibility, I see.

Also, I do not believe that invulnerability makes her immune to... Being held down...

And knocked silly!

Who wants to be a milk drinker when she can restore shields WITH THE POWER OF HER MIND.

There is one thing that makes her immune to being held down.

Was Other M as shittastic as it was made out to be? I never did take to it, but I heard the narrative ruined it, as well as stiff gameplay.
