This stage is loosely based on the area {{s|metroidwiki|Brinstar}} from ''[[metroidwiki:Metroid (game)|Metroid]]'' and ''{{s|metroidwiki|Super Metroid}}''. However, the only clear references include the yellow acid (featured in some rooms in Brinstar), the blocks with angry faces in the background (which originally appeared in Brinstar in ''Metroid'', in the room where the {{s|metroidwiki|Morph Ball}} is found), and the pillars at the sides of the stage (which behave similarly to the Zebetite pillars in [[metroidwiki:Tourian|Mother Brain's room]] in both games). | This stage is loosely based on the area {{s|metroidwiki|Brinstar}} from ''[[metroidwiki:Metroid (game)|Metroid]]'' and ''{{s|metroidwiki|Super Metroid}}''. However, its overall design is largely original to the ''Smash'' series; the only clear references include the yellow acid (featured in some rooms in Brinstar), the blocks with angry faces in the background (which originally appeared in Brinstar in ''Metroid'', in the room where the {{s|metroidwiki|Morph Ball}} is found), and the pillars at the sides of the stage (which behave similarly to the Zebetite pillars in [[metroidwiki:Tourian|Mother Brain's room]] in both games). | ||
The acid rising up and down in this stage is similar to the acid in some rooms in ''{{s|metroidwiki|Metroid II: Return of Samus}}'' that would lower upon {{s|metroidwiki|Samus}} killing enough [[metroidwiki:Metroid (species)|Metroids]], and the acid in Mother Brain's room in ''Super Metroid'' that rose after earthquakes. A large part of ''Metroid'''s gameplay is exploration, which often involves destroying blocks with [[metroidwiki:Morph Ball Bomb|Morph Ball bomb]]s to reveal secret passages: in particular, some blocks have a fleshy appearance similar to the one of the middle section of the stage. | The acid rising up and down in this stage is similar to the acid in some rooms in ''{{s|metroidwiki|Metroid II: Return of Samus}}'' that would lower upon {{s|metroidwiki|Samus}} killing enough [[metroidwiki:Metroid (species)|Metroids]], and the acid in Mother Brain's room in ''Super Metroid'' that rose after earthquakes.
