Well in Super Metroid it starts out in a sci-lab. The sci lab self-destructs and you have to escape. In metroid prime the same thing happens. In Super Metroid after the sci lab explodes you go to planet Zebes. It is grey skies rainy and green grass on ground. In metroid prime it is exactly the same, even has the same creatures and everything. And the powerups and the order you collect them is pretty much the same, has the ice beam charge beam powerbombs etc. Also, in Metroid Prime there is a Impact Crater. Guess what, in Super Metroid its called "Crateria". It even looks the same, there are tunnels that in Crateria that look and function the same as Metroid prime. There is also lava world and many other worlds just like Prime. Bascially TallonIV is a complete copy off Super Metroid's zebes.

Absolutely. Metroid Prime and Super Metroid are fantastic games!
