For personal matters Samus Aran's Hyper Beam is her most powerful weapon in the Metroid series and it can also be very effective against Ridley and Mother Brain.
The beam has been "given" to her in different forms too, so canonical order: her first hyper beam was the phazon beam she got from phazon hyper mode in prime 1, later she obtained a hyper beam she can use at will in corruption, next she got some kinda special natural hyper beam from the baby metroid which is it in the purest form, and finally, the new hyper beam she got was due to (spoilers! Scroll down to read the rest) So basically she had quite a few Absorbing it from raven beak
I've noticed that Screw Attack, Power Bombs, and Hyper Beam are usually the final items you get in the games. I guess they're meant to be three of the strongest attacks ever, huh?
Basically yeah, with the exception of Zero Mission and Prime 3 where you get the Screw Attack Mid game. And Fusion where you get the P-Bombs before mid game And prime 3 where you get the hyper beam in the beginning
Screw Attack can kill any non-boss enemy instantly (and at least in AM2R, the teleporters are blocked by Screw Attack blocks) The Powerbombs can help you in the endgame Item Hunt, since the X-Ray Scope from Super was deleted And the Hyper Beam is OP
Okay so the thing I noticed on the first fight is how... borderline PERFECT the player gets it... even the attacks seem to almost hit Samus but don't.... it feels like a movie scene where Samus just finally CUTS LOOSE and unloads everything onto Mother Brain and NOTHING the hag-like beast has can stop her or even slow her down! She briefly lives up to what the title of the series translate to.... The Ultimate Warrior.
REMEMBER these words. The Hyper Beam can ONLY be activated by the "Mark of a Metroid". In the Prime Series, that was PHAZON (part of Metroid Prime) and METROID PRIME/DARK SAMUS. In the 2D series, it was the BABY METROID.
@@dazcarrr mate her final smash isn't even the Hyper Beam. It's called Zero Lazer. Also, Smash is the WORST place to see any accurate depictions of Metroid anywhere, even Ridley's Final Smash isn't something Ridley ever does in the games.
@@dazcarrr plus, more to that the origins ACTUALLY comes from Phazon which I am going to propose two POSSIBLE theories that are highly likely. 1) SR388 Metroids had Phazon from the very start and instead of X Parasites being the main reason they acted as catalysts and Phazon was the main reason for their "mutations". 2) During the time Samus had left GF members had started to experiment on the Baby Metroid and had injected Phazon into it.
@@groudonor12 technically now samus's final smash is accurate to the games due to dread, the hyper beam looks like zero Lazer and functions the same apart from being able to wave it up and down like a fly swatter
Guys, how on earth did Mother Brain come back from that? (Self revive after a overgrown Metroid sucked it's energy out?) That is nuts and has never been seen before in the Metroid universe.
I've always asked myself that question. MB literally overpowered samus on her own, that says a lot right there. Then to to come back from a full super metroid attack? And even manage to still kill the super metroid!!!! Wow.
Simple, the baby didn't drain enough of MB to actually kill her. After MB collapsed, the Baby assumed she was no longer a threat and rushed to save its "mom".
I love Samus. Best Nintendo IP. She's overly powerful esp in dread tappin into new power. She pretty much Rogue now from X-men. Can't wait for prime 4. And maybe some dlc for dread?
Metroid powers is usually how she uses her actual Hyper Beam. She consumes so much energy that she essentially becomes a walking nuke. The Hyper Beam is expensing that energy.
I always loved how the hyper beam feels in super metroid. Missiles and super missiles barely make MB flinch but shots from the hyper beam are giving it whiplash from having its head knocked back.
Ngl, i think the most satisfying candidate for a hyperbeam is dread mode hyperbeam. Especially considering how RIDICULOUS RAVENBEAK AND THE CROSS BOMB BOSS IS
I like to think that whoever was on the original Pokémon RB translation team was a Super Metroid fan, and renamed "Destruction Beam" into the move we know as Hyper Beam as a tribute of sorts.
Umm... So, the Metroid Other M one... That's a normal charge shot or something right? No way that's the Hyper Beam. I was gonna mention Smash's Zero Laser not counting but I'll give that a pass for at least looking like Hyper Beam. But I don't feel like I can do that with that Other M clip
No, Dread's Hyper Beam more likely an Easter egg to the one in corruption. It only happens because if you don't go off Hyper Mode in Corruption, you enter a stage called Hyper Sickness which is nightmare fuel. Also, just pointing out to you all, Hyper Beam can ONLY be activated by the Mark of the Metroid.
Metroid's Hyper Beam is also called Hyper Beam in Japan. Pokémon's Hyper Beam tho, is called Destruction Beam in Japan, so there is no relation whatsoever between the two in their native language.
I know this one doesn't count because it's technically not a Hyper Beam, but the Ice Beam from Fusion kind of reminds of a Hyper Beam like upgrade given the circumstances of that game's story.
I believe that the hyper beam was absorbed by the baby Metroid when it was draining the mother brain energy and then it transferred the power to Samus.
The mph omega cannon isn't really a hyper beam. Whereas the hyper beam is typically rapid fire/continuous streams of some nondescript energy. The omega cannon is a slow firing weapon implied to be nuclear in nature (intense gamma radiation at the bottom of the oubliette during the gorea phase 2 fight, right where the omega cannon is).

Samus's most powerful weapon is only activated in the most dire situations. Or her suit has enough energy to activate it.
No the Hyper Beam can only be activated by the "Mark of a Metroid".
Nice
@@groudonor12 Whoa you're right. Every time she has the hyper beam, it is given to her by a Metroid in some form.
@@groudonor12Oh really? I always thought it was connected through her emotions. Since the Power Suit also kinda acts with it.
The new Metroid was my first one and it didnt disapointed me!
Lucky! Mine was Metroid Fusion
try the others, none disappoint! (Other M is not an option)

Absorbing it from raven beak
@@luisrosado7050 spoilers
It was actually the Metroid Beam*
*stronger hyper beam, can actually kill X parasites
@@AscendedHaven spoilers
well, technically they called it the "hyper beam" there too, so i dont see much of a difference except in raw power
@@AscendedHaven No its called hyper beam, look at the Samus status item screen, as soon as you get it
@@theakiwar9118 eh well, Metroid beam sounds better
Samus was using Hyper Beam long before Dragonite was.
Let that sink in.
Idk did the Japanese version of Super Metroid call it the Destruction Beam??
I would be surprised if Metroid inspired the creators of Pokemon to name the move after it
@@dnmstarsi It's actually called ハイパービーム in Japanese.
@@LittleAl016 Missing the joke, bud.
@@LittleAl016No, that's wrong.
In Japanese, it's literally called Destruction Beam.

In the Metroid series, anyway

True. But don’t forget about the shinespark!
Curiously in Super Metroid are nearly early game (specially with walljumping)
Screw Attack can kill any non-boss enemy instantly (and at least in AM2R, the teleporters are blocked by Screw Attack blocks)
The Powerbombs can help you in the endgame Item Hunt, since the X-Ray Scope from Super was deleted
And the Hyper Beam is OP
In Gandrayda's boss fight in Prime 3, she also does a mini Hyper Beam when she copies Samus
Super Metroid dying still hits hard in the feels
It's a certified "Tear Jerker" moment on TV Tropes

Then in Dread she just becomes a Metroid lol
The one from dread is kinda a "fuck everything in that direction" beam
The hyper beam is one the most dangerous weapons in the metroid series next to power bombs.
Power bombs are weak bro compared to the Hyper Beam.
Not even the power bomb can break that hyper beam barrier at the end
Omega canon from prime hunters is the most powerful weapon in series
That's why I said one of the most dangerous weapons in the metroid series, I didn't say it is truly the most dangerous weapon.
@@colinledoux7836 Fair point
The fact that MB can move that fast is scary 😭 0:38

In the Prime Series, that was PHAZON (part of Metroid Prime) and METROID PRIME/DARK SAMUS.

So I suppose the smash ball has a metroid inside it

@@groudonor12 I saw GF and like an idiot instantly thought you meant "game freak" and was like "the Pokémon company did WHAT to the baby metroid???"
The one thing that could change about Super Metroid would be to have a special theme play instead of that ship theme. It doesn't fit the moment.
Agreed. It is too much in the background and doesn't stick out with the moment of Samus making a killer comeback against Mother Brain.
That's not the ship theme. That's literally Samus Aran's theme. It was highlighting her triumph as she showed off her full power. Research dude lol
Guys, how on earth did Mother Brain come back from that? (Self revive after a overgrown Metroid sucked it's energy out?) That is nuts and has never been seen before in the Metroid universe.
She could have downloaded her memory somewhere else, just in case?
I've always asked myself that question. MB literally overpowered samus on her own, that says a lot right there. Then to to come back from a full super metroid attack? And even manage to still kill the super metroid!!!! Wow.
Let me tell you something, it's highly likely they bioengineered her and implemented Phazon into her.
Perhaps a reserve tank?
Simple, the baby didn't drain enough of MB to actually kill her.
After MB collapsed, the Baby assumed she was no longer a threat and rushed to save its "mom".
That spike on Ridley to showcase S5's hyper beam was so good
You know samus hates you when she vaporizes the X version of you.
To be fair, that Core-X had used Kraid (or one of it's species at least) as a Host as well as using Raven Beak. Fuck ALL of that 😄
I found that so funny tbh lmao. "I fucking hate you so much, I'm not EVEN going to absorb you. Just DIE."
I love Samus. Best Nintendo IP. She's overly powerful esp in dread tappin into new power. She pretty much Rogue now from X-men. Can't wait for prime 4. And maybe some dlc for dread?
From a really good beam to a goddamn Laser.
Yeah that's how it evolves
8:42 Repeat after me:
*_I'M-A FIRIN' MAH LAZER!_*
I like how the title says in metroid games but smash is still here, must've really wanted that 10 minutes, they got it down to the second
Fun fact: she got the hyper beam in dread because when she drained raven beak she took HIS hyper beam
Metroid powers is usually how she uses her actual Hyper Beam. She consumes so much energy that she essentially becomes a walking nuke. The Hyper Beam is expensing that energy.
I always loved how the hyper beam feels in super metroid. Missiles and super missiles barely make MB flinch but shots from the hyper beam are giving it whiplash from having its head knocked back.
Best "Hyped Beam" ever in Nintendo history. ;b
Samus used hyper beam
It’s super effective
Just like Pokémon special attacks Hyper beam
Other hyper beams: strong laser beam that deals a lot of damage
Dread hyper beam *death ray go brrrrrrrrr*
Ngl, i think the most satisfying candidate for a hyperbeam is dread mode hyperbeam.
Especially considering how RIDICULOUS RAVENBEAK AND THE CROSS BOMB BOSS IS
When I was a kid, the mother brain and that theme gave goosebumps.
why is there so often a mirror use the hell?!
I like to think that whoever was on the original Pokémon RB translation team was a Super Metroid fan, and renamed "Destruction Beam" into the move we know as Hyper Beam as a tribute of sorts.
i don’t remember the magmoor caverns music being a part of smash ? is it part of the game or was the music edited over the video ?
Maybe you have to unlock it?
It's in Ultimate, I don't remember if you unlock or it's available from the start.
Umm... So, the Metroid Other M one... That's a normal charge shot or something right? No way that's the Hyper Beam. I was gonna mention Smash's Zero Laser not counting but I'll give that a pass for at least looking like Hyper Beam. But I don't feel like I can do that with that Other M clip
Technically, that's a depiction of what happened in Super.
Dread's Files has Hyper Beam listed as ZeroLaser.
To be fair, Other M got a lot of things wrong.
So funny how Samus loses her armor just like Pokemon have to recharge after using Hyper Beam.
An Easter Egg maybe? 🤔🤷🏾♂️😂
No, Dread's Hyper Beam more likely an Easter egg to the one in corruption. It only happens because if you don't go off Hyper Mode in Corruption, you enter a stage called Hyper Sickness which is nightmare fuel.

Wow, Metroid Other M sucks so much that it manages to disappoint the hyper beam, even in a prerendered cutscene.
"The beam emerging from her arm cannon is *dread* fully powerful and causes great damage to enemies." lol
Why aspect ratio is wrong?
what memories
I know this one doesn't count because it's technically not a Hyper Beam, but the Ice Beam from Fusion kind of reminds of a Hyper Beam like upgrade given the circumstances of that game's story.

Smash Bros doesn't have Hyper Beam, that's the Zero Laser.
Same attack.
Prime 1 was my first so yeah
O this is going to be good
So we're just dubbing every ultimate weapon "hyper" now? Ok.
Its always hyper beam in the main games
@@davemarin7340 I'm referring to the zero laser.
Phazon is dubbed hyper by Nintendo so that one is ok, and hyper beam is hyper so that's good too.
I believe that the hyper beam was absorbed by the baby Metroid when it was draining the mother brain energy and then it transferred the power to Samus.
Can you do a Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition walkthrough?

Not the homie, baby metroid
Gawd, Mother Brain Snes theme is really disturbing.

You forget the Omega Beam from Metroid Prime Hunters

The omega cannon is a slow firing weapon implied to be nuclear in nature (intense gamma radiation at the bottom of the oubliette during the gorea phase 2 fight, right where the omega cannon is).

Metroid prime is not the hyper beam, its the phazon beam, beam mode is hyper mode, but it is NOT, the hyper beam.
It has “Hyper” in the name. Close enough. 🤣

As usual; other M had the worst version.
