Looks like our favorite space heroine has arrived in NYC! These display photos, depicting Metroid protagonist Samus Aran’s slick and distinctive spacecraft, were taken at the Nintendo World Store, located in New York City. Such a fine recreation of an iconic ship surely deserves a place in your display cabinet. May I suggest right between the Starship Enterprise and Millennium Falcon models? Make it yours for $250.

With Metroid: Other M on the horizon, you’d think the development of the title would be near completion. However, there is one aspect of the game that, while not yet included, could get added based on fan reaction.

Yoshio Sakamoto was asked by Nintendo Power is Zero Suit Samus would appear in Other M:

It’s a little hard to say right now, but if it’s something people want, then there may  be the possibility for that.

Sounds like an “oh, crap, we forgot to add that” moment to me! Would you guys like to see Zero Suit Samus return for Metroid‘s next Wii adventure, or is the notion of a Team Ninja developed Metroid enough excitement already.

It was a long time coming, but the three big women in the Nintendo world have finally embraced their roots.

In a sort of 80′s bad girl mash up, illustrator Assim Heetun brings the heroines back to a place that they haven’t been for awhile. Make sure to check out Peach’s tattoos and the art on Samus’ logo. Very nice touches.

I’m about ready to break out the sleeveless jean jacket and Ray Bans, if only I weren’t a little terrified of the trio. I would love to see more artwork like this, perhaps sans the leg warmers. Anyone have any thoughts into why the N64 logo made an appearance?

Personally I’m stumped. Click over to check out the full shot.
