did they change her name as well?
A lot of GAF users know black to mean African American specifically rather than merely any person with darker skin color.I don't understand what the dictionary definition is here for.
Samus is a symbol. It doesn't matter who is beneath the helmet.
Here's an idea. Instead of changing Samus, let's come up with an original character for the Metroid universe that also happens to be black.

Why make an established character into something new, instead of creating a character from the ground up? It would be nice to get an original black woman in their own game rather than a skin swap for an already established female symbol.
Also my issue would be rebooting a series that doesn't even have enough actual lore to reboot for any good reason. Samus is fine as is, no need to change her.

Not really, as long as they had a compelling reason as to why they changed her look, which I would say for any signifcant change made to Samus.

Well her surname references the Aran Islands so they may as well go the whole hog and change her forename to the Irish version of James.....Seamus?
Thanks, OP. If you hadn't posted the definition of 'black', I would be totally lost.
