Most of the input on Ninja Gaiden came from Itagaki, and some choice others who aren't part of Team Ninja. Samus like any other protagonist, wether or not she relates to the player is subjective. There is no connection when I play Metroid, she's mostly faceless, an inhuman construct. Stories can be narrated in many ways, one where the protagonist speaks is an interesting, welcome change for Metroid.
