Samus

How Samus joined the Tourney
Samus made her first appearance in Metroid (1986) for the Nintendo Entertainment System. The game kept the fact that she was a woman secret (with the intent of surprising gamers after they completed it); even the game's instruction manual refers to Samus as a male. Though believed to be created by Gunpei Yokoi, the original game concepts for Metroid were done by director Makoto Kanoh and designer Hiroji Kiyotake.

Character Select Screen Animation
Samus runs up to the camera and shoots a missile, then she makes some beeping sounds.

Charge Shot (Neutral)
Pressing the special move button will cause Samus to start charging energy in her arm cannon, which can be fired by pressing the button again. When the attack has reached maximum strength, Samus will stop charging and resume her neutral standing position, but her arm cannon will start to flash. Pressing the special move button in this state will let her fire the fully charged shot.

Missile/Super Missile (Side)
Samus makes a brief animation of pointing her arm cannon in front of her, then firing a missile. Homing Missiles are fired by tilting (as opposed to tapping). They home on opponents to a degree (they do not move vertically very well), move slowly, and deal 5% damage. Super Missiles are fired by tapping. They move in a fast, straight line, as opposed to Homing Missiles, and deal 10% damage with decent knockback.

Screw Attack (Up)
The move shoots Samus into the air, engulfing her in a blueish-tint electrical field, and spins her around and around, inflicting damage on any opponents that touch her.

Bomb (Down)
Samus shifts into Morph Ball mode and lays a bomb, which will explode either after a set time period or upon contact with a character, shield, or breakable hitbox. If Samus is on top of a bomb when it explodes, she will enter Morph Ball mode and bounce up; thus, if Samus uses Bomb while touching an opponent, she will hit the opponent or their shield with the bomb and be popped up into the air.

Power Bomb (Hyper Smash)
Same as Bomb, except the explosion is much bigger.

Zero Laser (Final Smash)
Samus charges her arm cannon, and fires a large beam of energy that deals a high amount of damage. The Zero Laser also passes through characters and portions of stages. This does not damage Samus at all, despite being extremely powerful. Unlike Brawl, however, Samus doesn't become Zero Suit Samus.

Victory Animations
