I’ve played the rom multiworld randomizer and like it a lot! I guess my longshot hope, and I don’t know if it would be feasible even from the decomp, is a single-world entrance randomizer with similar items merged, and the ability to use OoT items in MM and vice versa.
I hate to be the one to say this, I love metroid and much prefer the giant buff samus depiction you linked to ZSS; but imo the games that really brought on the ‘waifuization’ of samus are echoes and zero mission, and they came out in 2004. That’s 20 years ago, they’re closer to NES Metroid (1986) than now.
