*'''Metroid Fusion''': While leading scientists on a Federation-sanctioned survey across SR388, Samus is attacked by a native parasitic lifeform, the X Parasite, that was originally kept in check by its natural predator, the Metroids. Samus survives, but becomes permanently bound to a "fusion" form of her suit. The research station floating above the planet later becomes infested with X Parasites that mimic other organisms, and so Samus, whose new form is immune to the infestation, is sent on a mission by the Federation to fight and wipe out the creatures. Or at least, that is what Samus thinks her mission is strictly about... | *'''Metroid Fusion''': While leading scientists on a Federation-sanctioned survey across SR388, Samus is attacked by a native parasitic lifeform, the X Parasite, that was originally kept in check by its natural predator, the Metroids.

Despite there being no ''Metroid'' game on the Nintendo 64, the ''Metroid'' franchise is represented as one of several "standard universes" found in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]''. There is a total of one character and one stage representing ''Metroid'', both which focus on the original ''Metroid'', and the recent ''Super Metroid''. This game makes Samus's only appearance on the Nintendo 64. | |||

*[[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}} | ||

*[[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}} | |||
