First Metroid passage

The "first Metroid passage" is a room in Area 8. It appears, with significant differences between versions, in Metroid II: Return of Samus and Metroid: Samus Returns. This room is the first corridor in both games that contains Metroid larva.

:"The Metroid Radar's going off the charts. Wait... The reading says 11 more Metroids! There are more?! This is just a Metroid larva. It's susceptible to your Ice Beam and missiles, so freeze it and blow it up. Whatever you do, don't let it bite you! Metroid larvae are well known for their energy-sapping abilities. If they grab you, immediately drop into the Morph Ball and plant Bombs to shake them loose."
==Trivia==
*In Samus Returns, if Samus stays still underneath the Pit Block, the Metroid Nest theme will still play as the game thinks she is still in the previous room. If she rolls forward into the passage itself, the Tourian theme will begin to play.
