Despite there being no ''Metroid'' title on the Nintendo 64, the ''Metroid'' franchise is represented as one of several "standard universes" found in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]''. In total, there is one character and one stage representing the series, both which focus on the original ''Metroid'' and the more recent ''Super Metroid''. This game makes Samus's first and only appearance on the Nintendo 64, and she was one of the four characters conceived for the pitch of ''Super Smash Bros.'' as a Nintendo all-stars crossover game, the other three being Mario, Donkey Kong, and Fox McCloud.

===Character===
*[[Image:SamusIcon(SSB).png|50px|right]]'''{{SSB|Samus}}''': A bounty hunter in a technologically advanced and flexible power suit, Samus Aran is an orphan from a Space Pirate attack. She was harbored by the benevolent Chozo race at a young age and infused with their heritage and technology, and she now serves the Galactic Federation as pretty much a one-woman army against the menace of the Space Pirates and their attempts to use the life-stealing Metroids to conquer the universe. In ''Smash 64'', Samus appears as a starter playable character. Her [[neutral special]] is the [[Charge Shot]], a chargeable ball of energy that Samus shoots out of her arm cannon. Her [[up special]] is the iconic [[Screw Attack]] first appearing in the original [[Metroid]]. Samus's [[down special]] is her [[Bomb (Samus)|Bomb]] from the original ''Metroid''. This moves makes Samus turn into Morph Ball mode and lay a bomb, which will explode either after a set time period or upon contact with a character.{{clear}}
*[[Image:SamusIcon(SSB).png|50px|right]]'''{{SSB|Samus}}''': An intergalactic bounty hunter in a technologically advanced and flexible Power Suit, Samus Aran is a bona dude warrior who was orphaned from a Space Pirate attack. She was harbored by the benevolent Chozo race at a young age and infused with their heritage and technology, and she now allies with the Galactic Federation as ostensibly a one-woman army against the menace of the Space Pirates and their attempts to use the life-stealing Metroids to conquer the universe. In ''Smash 64'', Samus appears as a starting roster. Her [[neutral special]] is the [[Charge Shot]], a chargeable ball of energy that Samus shoots out of her arm cannon. Her [[up special]] is the [[Screw Attack]] first appearing in the original ''Metroid''. Finally, her [[down special]] is her [[Bomb (Samus)|Bomb]] from the original ''Metroid'', in which she turns into the Morph Ball and lay a bomb that will explode either upon contact after a set amount of time.{{clear}}

===Stage===
*[[File:PlanetZebesIconSSB.png|right|link=Planet Zebes]] '''[[Planet Zebes]]''': This stage is designed to resemble the general environment and hazards of the caverns of the titular planet that ''Metroid'' and ''Super Metroid'' take place in. It is a big platform with three platforms above it, and one on the right moving vertically. The stage features an ocean of acid that periodically rises up and submerges the lower portion of the stage. Touching the acid will damage a character and send them flying upward. Due to the acid, it is impossible, under normal conditions, to die by falling below the main platform.{{clear}}
