Line 296:
* [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown]]: Samus to Mother Brain during the mother of all [[Mama Bear]] moments at the end of ''Super Metroid''. After what Mother Brain did, she completely deserved it.
* [[Noob Bridge]]: The [[Trope Namer]] is a crumbling bridge encountered early in Brinstar in ''Super Metroid'', and the first place in the game that would require any player (of less than insanely good skill) to use the run button. The run button, however, is not part of a standard control scheme even within the Metroid series. Many newbies get stuck there, unaware of the otherwise obvious solution.
* [[Nostalgia Level]]:
** ''Metroid: Zero Mission'' - If ''Metroid 1'' isn't being referenced/remade in this game's areas, chances are that ''Super Metroid'' is.
** ''Super Metroid'': Brinstar, Norfair and Tourian.
** ''Metroid Fusion'': Sector 1 (a combination of Tourian from ''Metroid 1'' and SR388 from ''Metroid 2'').
* [[No Transhumanism Allowed]]: One of the rare and surprising aversions: not only are cybernetics commonplace and carry no notable social stigma, Samus herself is a [[Half-Human Hybrid|transgenic lifeform]], with her adoptive Chozo caretakers having grafted their species' DNA onto her own to increase her adaptability to the harsh environment of [[Death World|Planet Zebes]]. Further, by the end of ''Metroid Fusion'', Samus is also {{spoiler|part Metroid}}, and that's not even getting INTO her brushes with [[Metroid Prime|Phazon]]...
** Not to mention, {{spoiler|Adam (and many other political and scientific figures) regularly underwent [[Brain Uploading]]}}.
