 Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Space Pirate (Metroid)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Space Pirates are a fictional sentient aggressor species that appear throughout the Metroid series.
The Space Pirates are generally the main antagonists in the Metroid games because they are often causing big trouble for the Galactic Federation (the Metroid galaxy's equivalent to the United Nations) with their experiments and take-over plots.
One of the Pirates' mottos is "Death to the hunter!" In Metroid Prime 2 Echoes, the Space Pirates engage a Galactic Federation Marine Corps.

It is possible that the worm (Metroid Prime) could have been carried inside the Meteorite but the Metroid Fusion Instruction Manual reveals in an official timeline that the Metroids were actually created by the Chozo to prevent the spread of the highly corruptive X-parasites.
Like other Metroids, Metroid Prime was attracted to the Phazon energy and fed upon it to the point where it actually became a being of Phazon (as shown in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes).

I own the original Metroid on the NES, and it was such a great game at the time, and hence leading onto the release of several excellent sequels through the years, it was exciting to finally have a modernised version of the original that could catch up with the rest.
Items found throughout the Metroid series, more so regarding the 2D versions, i.e Metroid 2,3 and Fusion are back and the storyline itself is expanded in order to justify the storyline and plot in the later games.

 Metroid: Zero Mission (gba: 2004): Reviews
The plotline will be familiar to longtime fans of the Metroid series, but the challenges are new, the power-ups are plentiful (taken from several games in the series) and the graphics and sound are supercharged.
In the end, Metroid: Zero Mission is not just a new snapshot of where the series began; it is a panorama of where the series has gone over the last two decades.
A masterpiece...This is the epitome of Metroid gameplay.

 AtomicGamer - Metroid: Zero Mission Review
While some consider the very 3D Metroid Prime to be an unnecessary departure in style for the traditionally 2D series, others say it breathes new life into the games.
Metroid Fusion was the last game in the series to be released, and its controls were more limiting than they could have been - although it took some players a little while to understand how.
Some of the Metroid Fusion conventions have made it into Zero Mission, like holding the R trigger as a "shift" key for firing missiles.

In the laboratory where the Metroid larva was being studied, she finds its container shattered and the scientists dead on the floor.

 GameSpy: Metroid: Zero Mission Review
Link has his critics and Mario's reputation is under full-scale attack, but intergalactic bounty hunter Samus Aran and her Metroid series still seem above the fray, demanding the near-universal respect once afforded to all major Nintendo franchises.
With the imminent release of Metroid: Zero Mission, the franchise will have literally doubled in size over the last two years.
It's a retelling of the story of the original Metroid, in which Samus first encounters the alien life form that will change her life forever.

 Metroid (Classic NES Series) (gba: 2004): Reviews
There can’t be enough good said about this title as it serves as a remake of one of the early titles that changed the face of gaming forever.
It's easy to see how certain aspects of Metroid's design made it a classic, but 18 years later, the overall package just doesn't measure up to today's action adventure standards.
This game is awesome, but the problem is that it has already been remade on the GBA (Metroid: Zero Mission).
