Isn't she super tall?
She’s tall but she’s way too narrow to actually fit the shoulders on the suit. It’s one of those weird game oversights, like how many game building interiors are too large for the exterior to contain.
I don't think it's an oversight as much as it is simply the design of the suit to have large pauldron-like shoulders that also make it look like mechanical joints. And I mean, the biggest "how does that work" thing for me has always been the morph ball. How does she not just liquify?
The morph ball is usually half the height of samus' full sprite, which would make it a whole meter in diameter (iirc super metroid is the only exception). Most people could fit in that comfortably.
