Revision as of 18:56, 1 January 2009
For typical enemies see Super Metroid/Enemies. Bosses are listed in order of appearance.
Mini Bosses
Mini Bosses, like Bosses, serve to hinder Samus' quest in exploration of Zebes; most often with a power-up nearby (before or after the fight). The main difference between Mini Bosses and Bosses is the difficulty, size and effect on the game.
Ridley (Space Station Ceres)
Ridley will pulverize you in this fight, he's invincible so don't even waste time fighting, try to get your health under 30 to win the fight.
Torizo
Giant Spore
The giant spore will swing back and forth trying to hit you while the plants at the top of the screen shoot spores at you. The simplest way to defeat it is to equip missiles or Super missiles, then go into a morph ball. He can't hit you in the morph ball form, so just focus on dodging the spores. Eventually, he will stop at one side of the screen and open his mouth. Take this chance to shoot a missile into the mouth. Around six missiles should take him down.
Crocomire
Crocomire is the Norfair miniboss, available to fight once you've acquired the Super Missiles. When you drop down into his lair and move to the far right, Crocomire will jump out of the lava and slowly approach you. If you don't act fast, he'll end up pushing you all the way to the end of the room where you'll be impaled on the spikes on the wall. Its only weakness is to shoot it in the mouth. If you can hit it with more powerful weapons (Super Missiles) you'll knock it back slightly. Use them to hold him back while you pummel him with everything you have. If you run out of missiles you'll have to rely on charged shots.
- just a note* Crocomire has been tried to be used in other metroid games that came after super metroid because crocomire was so popular. But for aome reason (which is still a mystery to me) he was cut out of the game. Many people have used cheat codes to get crocomire back, but they only so far have gotten the enemy sprite and very few movements, many people are trying to fully bring him back in to the game.
Draygon
Golden Torizo
Bosses
The four bosses, Kraid, Phantoon, Ridley, and Botwoon must be defeated before the way to Mother Brain is opened (Tourian).
Kraid
Phantoon
Botwoon
Ridley (Zebes)
A well known boss of the metroid series and mother brains number one henchman. Throughout allmost every boss battle with ridley ever most of the attacks consist of fireballs and just ramming into you or picking you up and throwing you by stabing you with it's tail.
Mother Brain
The leader of the space pirates and final boss to both super metroid and the original metroid, (as well as later, metroid zero mission). In super metroid mother brain now has large legs and somewhat smaller arms, much like a t-rex. Her attacks consits of shooting blue energy rings out of her mouth, lighting from her eyeballs, exploding rock bombs she drops out of her mouth, and a stream of fire from her hands. Also, the brain itself will glow and fire a large multi-colored beam that drags upward making it almost undodgeable, which deals significant damage. During the middle of the fight the baby metroid samus found in metroid 2 (now an adult) sucks the life out of mother brain and gives that energy to samus replenishing her health. But eventually mother brain kills the metoid, giving samus an extremely powerfull beam that will make quick work of mother brain.
