Rinka hall

The "Rinka hall" is a room in Tourian. It appears, with significant differences between versions, in Metroid and Metroid: Zero Mission.
==Description==
This room leads directly into the Zebesian Command Center in both games. While its appearance is different between the versions, both contain enemies that can be killed repeatedly in order to replenish energy and Missile Ammo.
===Metroid===
 Samus can freeze and ignore them or kill them to replenish energy and ammo. Should she run out of the latter when fighting Mother Brain in the next room, she can return to this one and kill the respawned Metroids to replenish.
===Zero Mission===
 This is recommended if any energy and ammo was lost while fighting the Metroids, as there is no other way to replenish either in Tourian.
The room can be revisited after the explosion of Tourian. Curiously, the entrance door remains intact, while the exit door is totally destroyed, and the rest of the room is shown to be rusted and corroded. The background appears solid blue on the first visit, but after its destruction, large pipes are visible in the background with multiple punctures. In order to obtain a hidden expansion in the escape shaft, Samus must run in this hall until her Speed Booster activates, and then Shinespark to the left from the ceiling. She will continue until she blasts through a wall in the shaft.
In Super Metroid, this room, and much of the original Tourian, is no longer present. The new Zebesian Command Center is now entered from a long shaft.
