I don't know if it's against the rules to directly post the link to this site (will remove or mods will remove if but from what it appears, Nintendo has issued another takedown notice to Vimm's Lair as far as their games on the site goes.

One thing I do like about Metroid is how the "Varia Suit" has become practically integral to the series, despite the name originally being a mistranslation. It was meant to be "Barrier Suit", but someone screwed up...and it's become a mainstay ever since.

Funny how things turn out, eh?
