* [[Raised by Natives]]: Samus.
* [[Rasputinian Death]]: Crocomire in ''Super Metroid''.
* [[Rated "M" Forfor Manly]]: The franchise is about a female [[Halo|Master Chief]] (who [[Irony|is actually the]] '''[[Irony|original]]''' [[Irony|Master Chief]]) blasting an '''incredible''' number of types of aliens and robots (most notably including the [[Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot|cyborg pirate space dragon]] that Ridley becomes in ''Metroid Prime'') into smithereens using her [[Power Armor|power armor]] and said armor's built-in [[Arm Cannon|arm cannon]]. While the overall series might not exactly have the manliest of '''tones''', ''Super Metroid'' and the ''Prime'' trilogy (as well as ''Metroid Fusion'') were definitely '''much''' [[Darker and Edgier|darker and edgier]] than anyone was really expecting them to be.be.
** Also, ''Metroid: Other M'' and ''Metroid: Samus Returns'' took Samus' manliness a step '''further''' by giving her melee attacks and generally making her fight a '''lot''' more aggressively in combat encounters.
** Although not official, ''Another Metroid 2 Remake'' even introduced a Power Bomb [[Mortal Kombat|fatality]] for the Queen Metroid.
