Brinstar end shaft

The "Brinstar end shaft" is a room in Brinstar. It appears, with some differences, in Metroid and Metroid: Zero Mission. It is no longer accessible in Super Metroid.
==Description==
This shaft is found at the right end of Brinstar, and is connected to both Corridors No. 3 and 4. It is a tall shaft with multiple midair platforms and enemies, exiting into three-four rooms (the additional room is added in Zero Mission).
 The primary reason to access this room is to obtain the Bombs through one of the doors in the shaft.
 A pair of Rippers are placed near the top of the shaft, allowing for easier ascension. In addition to the same rooms it led to in the original Metroid, this room connects to a Map Room that populates the map with the eastern half of Brinstar.
