Original Note:
It's unlikely that Samus is a trans woman. Hirofumi Matsuoka, a background designer for Super Metroid, made this claim in a possibly derogatory manner during an interview published in a guide for the game. https://metroiddatabase.com/old_site/sm/interview.php Yoshio Sakamoto, co-creator of Metroid, has rebuked the claim. http://metroid.jp/metroid_version2/development/faq3.html#stage03
