Metroid Database.com

If you're a reader of mainstream gaming tabloid Kotaku, you may have seen this article celebrating Samus cosplayers. The article is more or less a glorified selection of photos of cosplayers from DeviantArt, however it features a few MDb forum members, MewTwo and the sprite-costume created by Chozoboy (who has most recently created a life size Super Metroid Ridley). Of course, the two brilliant suit designs of Jenni "Pixelninja" Kallberg and Thais "Yukilefay" Jussim were also featured.

However, we here at the MDb always strive to show supreme dedication to the Metroid series. You can always go to our DeviantArt Page and witness the 8-page gallery of all our favorite Samus cosplayers. Many more than Kotaku's selection, who somehow left out Zadra from their picks.

Instead of childishly pitting these beautiful women against each other an asking fans to choose "Who's the best?" we instead would like to embrace all cosplayers of Samus, celebrating their dedication to our favorite bounty hunter, and spreading the love for the series.

Here's to all the Samus/Metroid cosplayers from the past, present and future!
