Kenji Yamamoto and Kouichi Kyuma composed music for Prime, using remixes of Metroid games to "satisfy old Metroid fans". For example, Lower Norfair was used for Magmoor Caverns and the Brinstar theme was used for Tallon Overworld.

==Reception==
Metroid has hit many milestones: sold close to 1.49 million games, has an average score of 96.264% rating on Game Rankings, and the best reviewed game of all sixth generation games. Even Filter put Prime at Best Graphics of All Time.
EGM gave a 10/10, saying Prime has "detailed graphics, with special effects and varied environments, moody soundtrack and sound effects, level design, immersive atmosphere, and innovative gameplay centered on exploring as opposed to the action of games such as Halo while staying faithful to the Metroid formula." EGM also gave it a Platinum Award and a 2002 Game of the Year award.
Major reviewers, such as Famitsu, IGN, and Gamespot, gave it high scores and lots of praise. The only downside that reviewers alike hated was the constant backtracking, being, as Gamepro stated, that players "might find it exhausting to keep revisiting the same old places over and over and over."
