  • This long video focuses on me going through even more of Norfair. Thanks to the Power Bomb I'm able to go further, and even enter into its lower region where the music changes.
    While the Gravity Suit will protect Samus from lava, it can't protect her from the acid that appears here. It's too corrosive for the suit.
    There's a miniboss here which happens to be another living Chozo statue, this time it's gold, and it's much more aggressive than the one I fought very early in the game.
    Beat it, and you be able to get into the room that contains the last major item Samus can find: Screw Attack.
    The Screw Attack powers up Samus' Spin Jump, so that she's constantly a spinning ball of doom towards enemies. This can kill the lot of them, and even break through blocks that are set up for such a case. This combined with the Space Jump and make Samus ALMOST completely untouchable in the air.
    Later on, you have to fight two grayish Space Pirates. You can only hurt them when they turn yellow from using an aerial attack. Pick up on that, and you'll take them out in no time.
    Later on you'll get to the boss, the last main boss, and the leader of the Space Pirates: Ridley.
    This time, you are able to properly beat him. Just don't get grabbed and watch out for his tail. He has a lot more health than the other bosses.
    When he's about to die, he'll grab Samus one more time, before he dies from his own explosion. According the Metroid, Metroid II, and the whole Metroid Prime Trilogy, Ridley's defeat in Super Metroid is his final REAL death. Later games (meaning Other M & Fusion), will have Ridley return as a clone.
    You can then go into the room he was guarding. You can find a hidden Energy Tank in here, but you'll first notice that the baby Metroid used to be in here. It broke free of its jar. You can't think about it too much, yet, so now I leave Norfair on a course to find that massive statue of the 4 main bosses.

      I never learned this until after I started speedrunning the game and watched a tutorial -- if you're on or over one of those sets of three blocks in the middle of the room, one of them will turn yellow and attack you.
      I remember as a kid, and even in my early speedruns, I would just spinjump around the room until I got them to "randomly" go yellow and attack. Turns out there's a pattern to it!

    Playing this in 2022 for first time and still having a blast. Some stuff are honestly "hard to discover" without the internet especially regarding some moves, and what you can do with some tools. Props to those that finished it in those days ! Game is still amazing most likely one of the few games that have aged so WELL. Atmosphere and soundtrack is topnotch too. Whoever thinks that other metroid titles are better, guess again !
    PS: Lower norfair is pretty dope! Went to the right first and got stuck as I can't destroy walls while flying yet it seems. xD Dam.n the way back is not easy. lol.

      Chozo ghosts attack you in Prime just because of defending the territory from ANYTHING. Chozos are actually extinct i think. So all thats left are just the ancient ghosts who are objectively attacking everything or they just dont know who you are since im pretty sure samus isnt ancient. So these are not chozos. Just bootleg chozos. Torizos i guess.
