Super Metroid (Video Game)	comment	Spoilers for this game will be marked as usual. However, since this is a sequel to Metroid and Metroid II: Return of Samus, spoilers for those two games, as well as their remakes, will be left unmarked. You Have Been Warned!The last Metroid is in captivity. The galaxy is at peace...Super Metroid, also known alternatively as Metroid 3 from the intro, is the third game in the Metroid series, both in terms of release order and within the series' chronology (discounting the Metroid Prime Trilogy). It was released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1994, and was the largest game released on the SNES at the time, using a 24-Megabit cartridge (that's 3MB). It was the last Metroid game that Gunpei Yokoi worked on before his departure from Nintendo and death, the first where Yoshio Sakamoto was the main director, and the first with music from Kenji Yamamoto.Taking place shortly after the events of Metroid II: Return of Samus, Samus has given the Metroid hatchling to scientists aboard the Ceres space colony for further study, in hopes that its energy-producing abilities may be harnessed for non-destructive means. Shortly after leaving, however, Ridley and the Space Pirates attack the space station; killing all the inhabitants and kidnapping the infant Metroid. To stop the Space Pirates from making use of the Metroid for their own vile ends, the bounty hunter gives chase to their rebuilt hideout on planet Zebes.Where the first Metroid established the formula that's an eclectic mix of action, exploration, and platforming, Super Metroid codified the tenets of its gameplay style to become one of the most acclaimed games of the 16-bit era. To this day, Super Metroid is still cited as a master class in level design — teaching its players game mechanics with subtle use of antepieces — and environmental storytelling — apart from the brief introductory exposition recapping most of the events of the previous two games, almost all the storytelling is done through world-building and on-screen events, many described below.Super Metroid, like most prestige SNES titles, has spawned a fair number of ROM hacks. Among those are "randomizers" that mix up the item placements and/or map layouts. Perhaps the most interesting of these combines this game with A Link to the Past: Randomizer: any item from either game can be found (though not necessarily used) by Samus or Link, and they exchange items by switching between Hyrule and Zebes. This is accomplished by traveling between four doorways that connect the worlds. Once the player progresses far enough into Link to the Past, Link can move around Hyrule more easily with the help of fast travel; Link can combine those shortcuts with the doors to Zebes, shaving time off Samus' itinerary. The objective here is to defeat both Ganon and Mother Brain, and the ending corresponds with the boss fought last. The most noteworthy repository of non-randomizer ROM hacks (for the entire Metroid series, not just Super Metroid) is undoubtedly Metroid Construction.

Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_1259c262	comment	Miracle-Gro Monster: There isn't much difference when an infant Metroid matures to its larval stage in most cases, but the "baby" Samus spared ends up growing to an unprecedented size, even counting the higher forms as they were depicted in Metroid II: Return of Samus. It also grows differently, as it has no indication of approaching Alpha Metroid status, though later games imply that the true, natural evolution to the Alpha -> Omega Metroid line is only possible on SR-388 (or places that emulate that atmosphere). Metroid: Other M suggests that the larva's enhanced size is due to it being an immature queen.

Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_13dcb20b	type	Antepiece
Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_13dcb20b	comment	Antepiece: In the second room of the Ceres research station, the first area of the game, there's a small step you have to jump up on, in contrast to the many stairs in the rest of the area. This forces you to jump at least once and get a basic understanding of how the jump mechanics work, before you're pressed by time in the escape out of the area. You also meet Ridley there in a mock boss fight to test out your shooting skills, as the fight will end either when you damage him enough or you lose too much health. The first Metroid has a vertical tunnel at the start of Tourian that requires you to drop down the numerous platforms; the final vertical tunnel during the timed escape sequence is nearly identical, except the platforms are narrower and require you to jump up them under a time limit. The latter tunnel is revisited near the start of Super Metroid and used in a similar fashion: you drop down the platforms on your way to collect the Morph Ball, and making your way back requires you to carefully jump up the platforms and dispatch the Zebesians that are now jumping across the walls. And much later, during the final Escape Sequence, you end up back at this shaft and have to climb it once again, this time under a time limit with lava slowly filling the room.

Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_15264ac9	comment	Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay: Shortly after defeating Crocomire, the player runs into a platform which ramps upward, a long pit and blocks that can only be broken by the Speed Booster. Samus has to apply semi-realistic momentum by running towards the ramp and jumping off it to gain enough height and distance to reach the Grapple Beam. The "secret" method to beat Draygon is the only place that you can grapple onto live wires, with no real indication that you can other than the block the turret sits on being similar in appearance to a standard grapple block.

And then there are near-Fake Platforms that collapse almost instantly. The "near" part is important, as there is just enough time to be able to jump off of them if you're really fast. The latter are usually used to create corridors that required a Speed Booster dash to traverse, but they also make for convenient one-way passages. There are grapple points that disappear a few seconds after latching onto them with the Grapple Beam.

Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_17afe894	comment	Spectacular Spinning: Samus's normal jump is a vertical leap, but if she jumps while moving horizontally fast enough, she instead somersaults through the air, which also lets her Wall Jump and (if she has the Charge Beam) use the Spin Jump Attack to damage enemies. Later, Samus also gains the Space Jump and Screw Attack, two very useful abilities which can only be used during a spin jump; the former enables infinite aerial jumps, while the latter turns Samus's somersault into a powerful weapon that can decimate enemies.

Although pushing him into the acid results in a rather graphic death scene, you can just walk away after knocking him in before he starts melting.

Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae	comment	Awesome, but Impractical: The Super Missiles pack the biggest punch in the game, and can destroy bosses far more quickly than regular Missiles can. However, they are far rarer than regular Missiles (only 50 Super Missiles compared to 230 regular), are fairly slow to fire, restocking ammo is quite difficult (only some enemies drop Super Missile ammo, and Missile Stations don't restock them, only your ship does) and sometimes have unexpected side effects — for example, while they kill Phantoon faster, they also trigger a unique retaliatory attack where he swings a chain of fireballs across the screen eight times in a row. If you can use them well, they are very deadly, though — they're the best way to push Crocomire to his death, for example, because they knock him back the furthest compared to Samus' other options at the time (only a charged Plasma Beam, a late-game item, causes more pushback).

Space Pirates steal a Metroid and bring it to their fortress on planet Zebes with the intention of breeding Metroids as bioweapons, so Samus Aran is hired to stop them. She goes to Brinstar, where she defeats Kraid and acquires the Varia Suit; she goes to Norfair, where she defeats Ridley and acquires the Screw Attack; she activates statues based on Kraid and Ridley in order to enter Tourian; she fights her way through the Metroids in Tourian and defeats Mother Brain; and finally she escapes Zebes before a time bomb explodes.

After weakening Samus with her "rainbow beam", Mother Brain prepares an additional one to kill her as opposed to using her weaker attacks. This is implied to be a conscious decision on her part, seeing as she's willing to use her weaker attacks to knock Samus' energy down to almost nothing once it's clear an additional rainbow beam will kill her.

The Morph Ball, Missiles and Bombs are needed to get beyond Crateria, and the Super Missiles, Speed Booster (or the Ice Beam if you prefer—you at least need one or the other), Power Bombs and at minimum three energy tanks are absolutely required to finish the game. There's one point where it's combined with Some Dexterity Required: if you wind up in the optional section where the Etecoons teach you the Wall Jump (and if you happen to save your game there), you must become at least familiar with the ability to escape. This isn't too difficult, but it's notably one of the few places where good control and execution is necessary to advance, as opposed to merely making the game easier and enabling Sequence Breaking.

There's a wide variety of Super Metroid hacks, ranging from relatively minor gameplay and physics tweaks (Project Base) to radically deuterocanonical and hugely ambitious reimaginings of the entire game and its backstory (Hyper Metroid); while the total number of released hacks is relatively small compared to, say, the Super Mario World scene, the gameplay variety and general quality level of Super Metroid hacks is surprisingly high. This website contains a lot of information on the subject. There are many randomizers, as mentioned in the game description; they can completely reshuffle items and, in some cases, rooms, allowing a new experience each time one plays the game, and often requiring use of some clever, obscure techniques to reach critical items. One of the most interesting is the Super Metroid/A Link to the Past randomizer, which mashes the game up with A Link to the Past: Randomizer (any item can be almost anywhere in either game, as long as its location doesn't render either game unwinnable).

Beyond the ability to turn upgrades on and off, there's also a sprint button separate from the Speed Booster powerup, shinesparking gradually draining health, the Crystal Flash move to convert ammo into health in an emergency, and diagonal aiming is set to both shoulder buttons (diagonally upwards with the left shoulder and diagonally downwards with the right), with switching between your beam and missile types still entirely set on the Select button. Fusion would remove sprinting and the health-drain from shinesparking, and set priming missiles to holding the right shoulder while making the left shoulder work for firing in any diagonal direction.

The Charge Beam and Spazer Beam, which can be acquired as early as Lower Brinstar and easily rips through most enemies, and it gives you a nifty Pseudo-Screw Attack as an added bonus if you hold a charge and somersault. Combine it with the Wave Beam (which can be acquired in Norfair as soon as you have the Speed Booster and leap across the chasm to it, or even earlier if you're decent enough with the wall jump) and you'll rip through most enemies like wet tissue.

This is both an "easy" Trick Boss and a Homage to the original Kraid from the first Metroid game. Also, since (like real bosses, though not as much) he dumps large amounts of health and ammo when he dies, the fake Kraid also serves to replenish your strength for the real thing. There's also a fake Kraid wandering around the lower sections of Kraid's Hideout in the original Metroid. He can be taken out with a mere single missile and has a different palette, but otherwise looks the same as the real deal.

Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8	comment	Guide Dang It!: The beam-specific charge combos, which are described only in strategy guides and shown in the "secret techniques" Attract Mode video unlocked by a completed game file, and are unlikely to be discovered by accident unless you're messing around with beam settings and Power Bombs. The Varia/Gravity suit combo lets you traverse the lava at the entrance to Ridley's lair without taking damage. Nothing indicates this aside from an Attract Mode video, and most players would be cautious of jumping in there to find out. It doesn't help that most other damaging liquids in the game aren't affected by the suits at all. To access the underwater portion of Maridia, the glass tube there (the one that you pass through while going from Brinstar to Norfair) must be shattered with a Power Bomb. This mechanic appears nowhere else in the game, though the presence of a broken tube at the other end of Maridia may be considered an oblique hint, if you go far out of your way to find it. The unused blocks that act exactly like solid wall tiles but let Samus pass through them would have been nigh-impossible to detect, making anything hidden behind them a matter of luck to find, which is probably why they were cut to begin with. The final save point in Tourian is a Point of No Return, locking you out of 100% Completion on that run if you didn't make a copy of your file beforehand. In the rare circumstance that you reach this point without the Charge Beam (or, less likely, 150 missiles) and at least three Energy Tanks, you can get locked into a situation where Mother Brain is unbeatable due to either not being able to damage the boss or not being able to survive the scripted sequence during it. Phantoon's flame-sweep attack, triggered by Super Missiles, is very hard to dodge and can easily kill you even if you have lots of energy left. However, it can be avoided by using a "Pseudo-Screw Attack" (charging a shot and somersaulting), a technique that's not obvious to new players and normally doesn't offer much protection.

Speed booster blocks allow you to charge through without knowing it — leading you right back to the escape shaft from Metroid, which you came back down through at the beginning of the game, allowing you to enter the former location of the Tourian base from the wrong side.

This hovered around various fiction, including Nintendo Power comics and Manga. The actual game doesn't show her to be that broken up about handing the infant Metroid over to Ceres Research Station and going about her job, but her refusal to kill an non aggressive child who might very well become a benefit to society remains.

Particularly nefarious because there's no boss life meter, so it's hard to tell you're not really doing any damage, and because Crocomire keeps advancing towards you, essentially healing itself. Apparently, with some creative jumping, you can actually end up behind Crocomire, causing it to back itself up all the way to its death. Inversely, don't use Power Bombs against Crocomire. Crocomire does not like Power Bombs. Draygon is easily beaten by breaking one of the weapon turrets, letting Draygon grab you, and then shooting your grappling beam into the broken turret. There's a massive electrical discharge that hurts you, but fries Draygon a lot quicker.

A unique turtle creature called Tatori can be found with its young in a tall cavern. Standing on its back can give Samus early access to the room's Energy Tank and Missile Expansion, but touching its young will make it attack her. The Oums are ammonite-like creatures that impede Samus' progress through a hallway, but are otherwise pretty harmless. They only appear in this one segment. A red Skultera only appears in a single room that connects to Brinstar. Asides from its color, it's identical to the other Skulteras found throughout the game.

However, a few rooms later, you fight the actual Kraid, who is gargantuan in size. The original Metroid had its own fake Kraid, but both Kraids were the same size in that game.

To add insult to injury, you can use those Super Missiles to grab the capacity upgrade it guards, leaving Spore Spawn as the least-fought boss in speedrun categories. With tool-assistance (it's not humanly possible to perform the amount of frame-perfect inputs necessary to move fast enough), Torizo is skippable by leaving the room where you get Bombs before the door locks. The only progression item Crocomire guards is the Grapple Beam, which can be circumvented by using wall-jumping and Shinesparking to get Power Bombs and traverse both the Wrecked Ship and Maridia. Once you get the Space Jump behind Draygon, the Grapple Beam is rendered obsolete and Crocomire is skipped. If the boss locations are randomized (the boss rooms remain the same, but which boss is encountered changes) and Draygon is defeated before visiting Maridia, it's possible to reach the Maridia boss room from "Cacatac Alley" and avoid Botwoon altogether.

Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_9b9435d0	comment	Anti-Frustration Feature: A temporary, minor case at the start. Normally, you can only save at save stations (including Samus' ship). But the first section, which is in a different place from the rest of the game, is devoid of them. Although this section is very short and not very difficult, the programmers were still nice enough to autosave your game at the couple of key points before you have access to the stations, so you don't have to redo even that much if you e.g. turn off the console or reset or similar. After that, though, you're on your own.

Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1	type	Foreshadowing
Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: Samus's narration at the very beginning hints that the Metroid's ability to drain energy can also be used for beneficial purposes, implying that the devoured energy can be used afterward. The giant Metroid demonstrates this by transferring life energy and a powered-up beam from Mother Brain to Samus during the final battle. Under normal circumstances, the battle with Ridley on the Space Station ends when he brings Samus to low health, setting off her Critical Annoyance. The same sound sets off when the Metroid Hatchling is draining her energy in Tourian; it recognizes it and stops draining Samus. If you place a Power Bomb near where Mother Brain was in the original Metroid, it'll open up a rather large chamber underneath, much larger than would be expected to be hidden underneath a Brain in a Jar. The revived Mother Brain in Tourian stores her biomechanical body underneath her, suggesting a similar layout. In Maridia, you catch a glimpse of what looks like a Metroid when traveling through a pipe. It's actually a "Mochtroid", a far weaker failed cloning experiment that you face a few rooms later. After defeating Ridley, the next room has the larval Metroid's capsule smashed and empty. It grew large enough to break free and escape to Tourian.

Also, unlike the Crystal Flash, which you're safe during and happens rather quickly, you can be hurt while concentrating and it'll take a while, but the rate at which you recover health and ammunition can be improved with Accel Charge powerups.

What qualifies it for this trope (given that the player can have up to nineteen Energy Tanks' worth of health by the end of the game) is that not only is it impossible to dodge the attack, but she'll keep doing it until the player's health becomes low enough that one more Laser Brain Attack would be lethal. Furthermore, if the player has more than one Energy Tank remaining, she'll rub in her imminent victory by launching weaker attacks at Samus (who at this point is too exhausted to move) until this is no longer the case. Finally, she'll attempt to finish Samus off with one final Laser Brain Attack - at which point the grown up "Super Metroid" will rush in and save Samus's life. If Samus can't survive the first of the Laser Brain attacks, however, she will die.

A unique turtle creature called Tatori can be found with its young in a tall cavern. Standing on its back can give Samus early access to the room's Energy Tank and Missile Expansion, but touching its young will make it attack her. The Oums are ammonite-like creatures that impede Samus' progress through a hallway, but are otherwise pretty harmless. They only appear in this one segment. A red Skultera only appears in a single room that connects to Brinstar. Asides from its color, it's identical to the other Skulteras found throughout the game. The hallway just before Ridley has two silver "ninja" Space Pirates. The only other place they appear is during the escape sequence, where they are instantly eviscerated by Samus' Hyper Beam, though those are technically a different variety of the other space pirates in the escape, with less HP and more vulnerabilities compared to the "true" ninjas faced in Norfair — though in most cases players will probably barely notice those last two enemies in the game because Samus's only weapon at that point kills them instantly. (But that would make them yet another unique enemy, amusingly.) There is a unique Geemer colored like Samus's Varia Suit which mimics her movements above a particular room in Crateria. If you leave the room, it will be gone when you reach its spot. It doesn't do anything or drop anything special, it can't hurt you, and there is no explanation for it.

Particularly nefarious because there's no boss life meter, so it's hard to tell you're not really doing any damage, and because Crocomire keeps advancing towards you, essentially healing itself. Apparently, with some creative jumping, you can actually end up behind Crocomire, causing it to back itself up all the way to its death. Inversely, don't use Power Bombs against Crocomire.

There's also rising acid in part of the final Escape Sequence, but it's kind of redundant since you're already running to escape an exploding planet, and because it's at the end of the game, your suit's been upgraded enough that the lava doesn't restrict your movement, and you have so many spare energy tanks that the damage inflicted by the acid is negligible, so it's really only there to make you panic.

Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_c317c849	type	HP to 1
Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_c317c849	comment	HP to 1: The titular metroid reduces Samus' energy to exactly 1 point, regardless of any health tanks she has. This is more of a plot point than any serious danger; while there's nothing you can do to stop the energy drain (apart from not getting grabbed in the first place), at the last possible second the metroid recognizes Samus as the one it imprinted on when it hatched and it lets her go. Luckily, there's no other enemies between Samus and an energy-restoring station. The Final Boss (Mother Brain) resorts to her Laser Brain Attack when dealt enough damage, draining three Energy Tanks (or six, if the player is not wearing the Varia Suit), about sixty-five Missiles, and Samus's entire supply of Super Missiles and Power Bombs. What qualifies it for this trope (given that the player can have up to nineteen Energy Tanks' worth of health by the end of the game) is that not only is it impossible to dodge the attack, but she'll keep doing it until the player's health becomes low enough that one more Laser Brain Attack would be lethal. Furthermore, if the player has more than one Energy Tank remaining, she'll rub in her imminent victory by launching weaker attacks at Samus (who at this point is too exhausted to move) until this is no longer the case. Finally, she'll attempt to finish Samus off with one final Laser Brain Attack - at which point the grown up "Super Metroid" will rush in and save Samus's life. If Samus can't survive the first of the Laser Brain attacks, however, she will die.

Spore Spawn would be invincible if it never opened to reveal its vulnerable insides. Justified in that this creature probably isnâ€™t sentient.

If one has the ice bream, it's possible to turn off all other beams and freeze Firefleas in a helpful location where they won't be bumped into. The Work Robots in the Wrecked Ship take pot shots at you every now and then, but can make useful step stools. Powamps are dangerous to touch and harmfully explode if shot but do not attack Samus otherwise and can be latched onto with the grapple beam.

Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_f88f2449	comment	Downer Beginning: The game opens with Samus recounting her exploits of the first two games, finishing by noting that the Galactic Federation had found the potential to harvest energy from the last surviving Metroid from planet SR388. Shortly after she leaves to hunt new bounty, Samus receives a distress signal from a space colonly. She arrives too late, with all of the scientists already brutally murdered and only the baby Metroid and Ridley remaining. Ridley steals the hatchling to be used by the space pirates after Samus encounters him. One self-destruct sequence later and it's off to Planet Zebes where the majority of the game takes place.

This forces you to jump at least once and get a basic understanding of how the jump mechanics work, before you're pressed by time in the escape out of the area. You also meet Ridley there in a mock Boss Battle to test out your shooting skills.

Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_f91d1d4f	comment	Darkest Hour: A giant Metroid appears. You can't kill it with any of your weapons. It latches onto you, and drains your health faster than you being submerged in the acid in Ridley's lair with the Power Suit and nothing more. No weapons can repel that monster. When you're in your very last HP point, it stops, gets off and starts vocalizing. Do you recognize those squeaks? It's the baby all grown up! It then flies off, leaving a clear way to a recharge station. Another comes in the battle against Mother Brain. It uses a beam that not only presses Samus to the wall, it disintegrates her ammo as well. No matter how much you fight, it'll keep doing it until you can't stand anymore, then it batters you up with a few more shots and charges the death beam again. And then the giant Metroid latches onto its face.

Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_fb111d49	type	Sequence Breaking
Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_fb111d49	comment	Sequence Breaking: Super Metroid is famous for being full of tricks that allow you to break the game wide open: Samus' wall jump mechanic allows her to rapidly scale a single vertical wall (no opposite wall even necessary) and visit game sections early without the necessary upgrades. The Wall Jump can be used to collect Power Bombs and the Wave Beam before the Grapple Beam, the Spazer Beam and X-Ray Scope without the Hi-Jump Boots/Ice Beam, reach Kraid early, and get into the Wrecked Ship without the Grapple Beam and thus collect an early Gravity Suit. This also lets you get to Draygon without the Grapple Beam via getting the Gravity Suit early, letting you get the Space Jump and complete the game without an intended collectible. In future games in the series (barring Metroid: Zero Mission), Samus needs a second wall to jump off of in order to use the move continuously. This game introduces the Shinespark, a secret technique (but also one required for collecting every item) where Samus stores the energy from a Speed Booster dash and uses it to charge in one direction until she collides with a surface, ignoring gravity. It can be used to bypass areas that would otherwise require items like the Grapple Beam and Space Jump. It's limited by the amount of space Samus needs to activate the Speed Booster, and the Shinespark can only be stored for a few seconds, but there are ways to circumvent the limitations. For an unintended trick, the "mock ball"/"mach ball" allows Samus to move at dashing speed while in Morph Ball form, allowing her to reach certain areas without needing the Speed Booster, letting her get the Super Missiles (skipping the need to fight Spore Spawn) and Ice Beam early on. There are numerous walkthroughs and speedruns online that show how it can be done. It is possible to skip the first Torizo via the arm-pumping glitch (which enables Samus to more faster by adjusting her aim rapidly), but this trick is exclusive to the European/Australian version—Samus was made faster to adjust for the 50hz signal, thus letting her narrowly escape the room. The Energy Tank in the blue part of Brinstar can be reached by damage-boosting from the knockback of a nearby enemy. By using a quick Shinespark, Samus can collect the Energy Tank in the pink portion of Brinstar much earlier and without the Gravity Suit. In Norfair, once you have the Speed Booster, it's possible to use its speed to leap your way to the Wave Beam before you get the Grapple Beam. For extra irony, this allows you to sequence break past a one-way gate to another part of Norfair, which grants you early access to not only the Grapple Beam, but the Power Bombs as well. A glitch commonly known as the "Green Gate Glitch" involves a Shutter with a green light that is on the left of the machine. Samus must jump and fire in a certain area of the Shutter to make it lift from the wrong side. The Speed Booster, Hi-Jump Boots and Power Bombs can be collected later than usual if other sequence breaks are performed, although the Hi-Jump Boots can also be skipped altogether. The Speed Booster can also be skipped altogether by using the Ice Beam to freeze a Puyo or a Mochtroid to clip through a Pit Block in the room before Botwoon, causing them to crumble, and allowing Samus to skip the Speed Booster Blocks normally needed to reach the rooms. The Super Metroid can be avoided in Tourian through dodging with the Space Jump, or with the usage of a Shinespark. It's possible to tackle the four main bosses of the game (Kraid, Phantoon, Draygon, and Ridley) in reverse order. It's excruciatingly difficult because it requires traversing Norfair without the Varia Suit, meaning the heat on any screen containing lava, including the entire region where Ridley resides, deals constant damage to Samus (and therefore requiring both extremely skillful navigation and extremely shrewd resource management). It also requires traversing Maridia without the Gravity Suit, meaning the player has to do all kinds of weird manoeuvres that aren't normally possible to climb the underwater area. Needless to say, every single energy tank, power bomb, and super missile is much more important than it is in an ordinary run (you'll need to do several Crystal Flashes to survive Norfair). One player did a minimalist TAS run and exploited an out of bounds glitch that allowed him to beat the game in seven minutes.

Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_fc07d409	type	Hopeless Boss Fight
Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_fc07d409	comment	Hopeless Boss Fight: The fight against Ridley in the opening. You can make him fumble the Metroid hatchling's container, but you can't stop him stealing it, and you can't prevent him from starting the self-destruct sequence. Samus can't do a single thing to harm the Super Metroid, which effortlessly reduces her to 1 energy unit before it (presumably) realizes who she is and backs off. The second portion of the final fight. Mother Brain's giant multicolored laser is impossible to dodge. When you're hit by it, it will drain any remaining missiles, super missiles, and power bombs, and reduce your health by 300 (600 without Varia). If you can survive another hit with the beam, then you can get up and keep fighting until you get hit by the beam again. Otherwise, you're stuck on your knees, unable to move until the Metroid hatchling arrives and the final phase of the battle begins. Because of the extreme damage of the beam, if you have fewer than 3 energy tanks when you get to Tourian, the battle is literally hopeless: you must survive at least one hit from the beam so that the game can trigger the transition scene.

Super Metroid (Video Game) / int_fc84a14d	comment	There are floor tiles that will collapse, but take a half-second to do so. And then there are near-Fake Platforms that collapse almost instantly. The "near" part is important, as there is just enough time to be able to jump off of them if you're really fast. The latter are usually used to create corridors that required a Speed Booster dash to traverse, but they also make for convenient one-way passages.

One of the most interesting is the Super Metroid/A Link to the Past randomizer, which mashes the game up with A Link to the Past: Randomizer (any item can be almost anywhere in either game, as long as its location doesn't render either game unwinnable).

There are several other monsters that can also damage you if you approach them the wrong way, but otherwise won't hurt you and can help you (which may be required to do a 100% run); these include Shaktool (which will clear away the sand in the way of the Spring Ball) and Kame/the Tatori (which can allow you to reach the Energy Tank), both in Maridia. Kago will only attack if you shoot their nests, and even then mostly congregate around it rather than actively pursue you.
