As people pointed out in the original Twitter thread, the last page of the manga strategy guide mentions that "nobody knows the true identity of Samus," and that "with your bravery, you will have the chance to meet the true Samus." Which to me heavily implies that they knew, but wanted to leave it a surprise for the player.

During my game boy days, I never knew her gender until I came across it many years later.

^ I gotta be honest, Samus is a character that I've always felt would be Aro if anything.
