I had a friend or two that were good at shooting me with Ness's lightening after they had smashed me off the side of the platform and it made it so I couldn't get back over. It's seems like that's the best sort of use for it.
Also, why would Samus need an alternate form? It's not like she isn't pretty good right now (unlike Zelda, I don't know anyone that played as her normally).

I've kicked a whole lot of ass with just plain old Zelda. She's like Jigglypuff: In the hands of a skilled player, she'll knock you all over the place. She moves kind of slow, but nearly all of her moves have tremendous power.
There's nowhere I can't reach.
