Why there is Samus in this picture? Nintendo would never even let Samus to be in bar just like that.
"some of the best known Bounty Hunters" Then why there is Samus in this picture? she is obviously the most less known character in this picture.
Also Metroid franchise and Samus are so popular things that most of people don't even know that Metroid franchise is actually aimed for kids.

One better: Samus in a bar with what look like two shot glasses in front of her with shady guy in the background while she barely has any clothes on.
Official art to boot that appears in one of the games.
You'd be right in that she doesn't belong here. She's the only strict good-guy (at least as far as I'm aware, dunno who the guy on the top right is).
She's, in her lore, one of the best hunters in the galaxy.
And she's otherwise pretty well known. She is an Icon that even people who don't play Metroid at least of some semblence as to who she is.
She's a bounty hunter in and only that Nintendo won't call her anything else, despite how wrong they are.
They're for whatever reason, afraid to change it to Mercenary, though the Prime Trilogy only refers to her a Hunter, not a Bounty Hunter.
Otherwise, Samus is a good natured character. Nintendo even asserting that she does not take money for her missions to Retro when they proposed to make a game about bounty hunting.
She only takes bounties from the GF because they're the ones aimed at galactic peace, and in Fusion, will actively go against her contract when she finds they're about to put the galaxy at risk.
To quote verbatim the games and the manga, she's more a "Galactic Savior than a merc or hired muscle". A couple of the games she even acts without a contract.
Super Metroid, the lore of it is that she had just finished her last mission, and barely had time to leave before the GF station was attacked, she took the innitative herself to go back and answer the distress call.
Prime 1 she just happened to find the Space Pirate base and acted on her own. No GF involvement at all.
Fusion she was on contract, but she breaks it at the end of the game when she realizes the GF were being pants-on-head retarded and chose to save them from themselves.
Other M she just happened to pick up a distress signal and followed it, happened to find Adam who only reluctantly let her stay on the mission on the grounds she listen to orders (because when she was part of the GF, she was nutorious for both speaking and acting against orders). She pushed to stay even after essentially being told to leave.

"two shot classes" They are actually coins. Also Metroid fusion (a game where that picture is taken from) is aimed for little kids, they can't but shot classes for games what are aimed for little kids.
Also why there are not any alcohol bottles shown on that picture if that place is a bar?
Also that shady guy is holding something on both of his arms what dosent look like a alcohol bottles at all. for me this picture looks more like that Samus is buying those things what that shady guy is holding on his arms from that shady guy, or maybe Samus is selling those two strange things for that shady guy.
And I thing that Shady guy is actually a merchand (just like that strange merchand guy from RE4).
And I thing that place where she is in that picture is just a some sort a shop or something.
"while she barely has any clothes on" She is actually wearing a females gym clothes what is totally natural. Almost ever female on gyms are wearing clothes just like that if you didn't know that?
AND BTW if those coins on that table are shot classes I hardly believe that she is not drinking alcohol anyways, she can easily be drinking soda, juice or even milk (because that game is rated for 7 years olds by PEGI) because in Zelda majora's mask there was a bar named MILKBAR and in that game people get drunk by drinking milk.
" She is an Icon that even people who don't play Metroid at least of some semblence as to who she is" Well that is 100% bullshit. Some people still in these days thing that she is a male or cyborg and some people even thing that she is a transvestite. Also saying that she is a icon is just like saying that Captain Falcon would be a iconic video game character as well, BECAUSE Captain falcon is one of the fan favorite characters in smash bros series, and smash bros is one of nintendos highest selling and most prized franchises of all time.
"she does not take money for her missions" Is that true? then what is her real job then, because she needs to get money from somewhere? Or is she just a bum just like Ryu from Street fighter?

She's sitting in a shady place, at a bar-like counter, on a bar-stool, across from a shadily dressed man.
Whether or not it is an actual bar (and it likely is), is up for debate, but what isn't is the vibe the image is supposed to give off. Samus is in a shady place, which is debateably worse than being portrayed in a normal everyday bar.
"She is actually wearing a females gym clothes"
In what is more or less a public area, worse, a SHADY LOCATION.
Basically every out-of-suit design of her clothes have been eye-candy, save for the one at the end of Other M, oddly.
"Well that is 100% bullshit."
You don't read, do you?
I said "Some Semblence", not "Know exactly who she is and everything about her".
Among gamers, hardcore or casual, most know who she is to at least some extent. She IS a famous figure, just not anywhere near as much as Nintendo's Big Three. She's probably more famous than her own series is on it's own due to Smash, especially since Zero Suit Samus has been an almost infamously High Tier character since her inception to the series, with Regular Samus being hilariously low tier to the point of nearly being a meme.
After Smash Brawl, the only people who don't know Samus isn't female are people who've never touched a Nintendo Console or videogames every in their lifetime. The "Samus is male" at this point is a Meme and you'd have to have been living under a rocket (at least in regards to the gaming scene) to not know.
She's a gaming icon, famous for being "One of the first Female Protagonists".
Whether you disagree with the fact is moot.
"then what is her real job then"
According to Adam Malchovich and Grey-Voice?
Galactic Savior.
She's not the only hunter in the series to do so. Ghor, from Prime 3, his scan outright state he usually gives his pay to the victims of whatever mission he was on.
How she sustains herself is unknown. Maybe she's rich, maybe she designs ship schematics to people (prime 3 stated she's the one who designs her ships).

It is not bar its shop. That game is for little kids so its not at least a alcohol bar.

Gotta disagree with you on there, but thanks for your opinion.. Samus is a big girl, she can go into a bar if she wants too.. I won't even get into the amount of Nintendo characters who have "appeared" drunk or high in their games (Which were aimed at kids.)
Lesser known? Not only is the Metroid series one of the best known titles Nintendo has, but she has appeared in all of the Super Smash Brothers games.. One of Nintendo's top 5 best selling games of all time.. Lastly, Google "Best bounty hunters in fiction." She will pop up in the top ten of 90% of the articles you see.

1. Samus is not even a real bounty hunter, I haven't never seen Samus doing any kinda of bounty hunter stuff ever. Her job is not actually a bounty hunter. Samus is not a bounty hunter, she is a mercenary. To me, this explains a lot of the oddities as to why Samus was taking orders at the beginning of Other M, the spaceship to clarify. She doesn't use her powers or abilities here, because her contractor does not want her to. When I saw the cutscene of Samus meeting up with the military in that first scene and teaming up with them, I was of the understanding that she was contracted by Adam, or else she could just leave.
For a bit more evidence, the initial cutscene of Metroid Fusion implies that the Federation hired Samus as a bodyguard for researchers at SR-388. This isn't something a bounty hunter does, its not in the job description, it is however, something that a mercenary would do.
Heck, I'm pretty sure most of the games start with Samus getting a mission from the Federation, from the games' manuals.
Metroid: the Federation and the Space Pirates are at a stand-still, so the Federation sends Samus in.
Metroid 2: The Federation assigns Samus to kill every Metroid.
Super Metroid: Samus was just leaving a Federation research station after leaving the baby Metroid there.
Metroid Fusion: After getting infected with the X-virus while acting as a bodyguard for the Fed. researches, she then takes orders from the Adam AI, who is her bridge of communication with the Federation.
2. "Lesser known? Not only is the Metroid series one of the best known titles Nintendo has" Well that is not true. Metroid is very underrated franchise in Japan and Europe. Actually even Splatoon seems to be more popular franchise than Metroid ever was.
And most of these so called Metroid fans don't even know that there is a bunch of shonen mangas about Metroid out there and they thing that Metroid is similar franchise to Halo franchise, also some Metroid fans don't even know that Metroid franchise is actually aimed for kids and teens.
3. " but she has appeared in all of the Super Smash Brothers games.. One of Nintendo's top 5 best selling games of all time" Then why there isn't Captain Falcon in this picture then? Captain Falcon is one of fan favorite characters in Super smash bros series and he is also a bounty hunter.

"Samus Aran is an ex-soldier of the Galactic Federation who turned into a Galactic bounty hunt er" - Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samus_Ar… .. So again, yes she is a bounty hunter.. Regardless of your personal opinion, her job title is described as a bounty hunter. If that is not enough for you, visit Nintendo's official website and look at the description for her amiibo. It happens to call her a Bounty Hunter. End of argument, thank you.
Captain Falcon is not in the picture because at the end of the day, I did not want him to be. Lets not forget, it is my drawing so who goes into the picture is really my choice.. If you'd like to do your own version with Captain Falcon and no Samus, go for it.. I'm sure it will look fantastic.
Have a nice day.

Samus is taking her missions from galactic federation.
while real bounty hunters just like Captain Falcon and Deadpool are chasing bad guys because of money.
Samus is not a bounty hunter eventually nintendo is calling her as a bounty hunter, Nintendo did that same thing even for Mario, Mario is called as a plumber but since when we saw Mario doing a plumber job last time?
Here's the definition of a bounty hunter; "bounty hunters capture fugitives - dead or alive - for a monetary reward, officially approved by the state."
Maybe I just haven't played every game starring Samus out there, but I have played Super Metroid and The Metroid Prime Trilogy, and I can assure you she doesn't go out of her way to collect bounties or bring any of the Space Pirates back to government officials dead or alive. You can't even call her a mercenary, I've never seen her accept contracts. But apparently she "is" on some government payroll, so presumably she's some freelance hired muscle.
But all we see her do - when you stop to think about it - is instigate vicious and sudden campaigns against Space Pirates (who only exist seemingly to antagonize her and give her something to do), or explore planets where she does nothing but reign unholy hell on the local ecosystem and hunt every natural life form in close vicinity into extinction.
She strikes me more as a vigilante... or a serial killer... or a poacher. Or all three, actually.

Whatever man. Go argue with Nintendo about it. Until you can get them to change it, she is a Bounty Hunter in my book. Good luck on your quest.

Is that Waldo/Wally? If so, I think Slade found him, he wins.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
lol you are correct on both accounts.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It was about time someone found him. Many have had bounties on their heads, but he's been untouchable for so long. Well done Deathstroke, you did what no one could, you found Waldo, or Wally, whatever he wants to be called.
Hang on. He could be called Wally and Waldo. He's got some kind of alias or something. No one could find him, he has an alias. Suspicious.

No, let's see if Deathstroke can capture another infamous fugitive that has been on the run for years.
Yeah, I'm talking about Carmen Sandiego.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Never underestimate Deathstroke. Never underestimate Carmen Sandiego either. It would be an interesting hunt for Slade.

It is hard to see, but there is a Carmen Sandiego wanted picture on the back wall lol

I can see that now. Great idea.

You can't leave him out lol
