Its battle starts off with a surprisingly effective Jump Scare, and when you see that it looks like a Gigeresque horror, you'll see why. Oh, and then its skeleton pops back out for a moment only to crumble before you. Forcing the creature into a pit of acid and watching its flesh melt off. It also might not even be clear to a new player what this room is for, and that it won't be of use to them until later in the game, adding Empty Room Psych and Nothing Is Scarier to the mix. While seeing all four bosses together might not frighten someone who's already defeated them, it certainly could have that effect on a first-time player, who is being shown right away the monstrosities they will have to face. Third and finally, it's possible to stumble across this room shortly after starting the game. Second, the music in this room is a very foreboding ambient track, which dials up the creep factor even more. These are creepy enough on their own, but seeing them all together (even if it's just as statues) takes it to a whole new level. For starters, it's filled with statues of the four major bosses that need to be defeated in order to access the area. The room in Crateria that contains the sealed entrance to Tourian.one who didn't play the first game) may well assume that Ridley is invincible. The kicker? While it's possible to beat down Ridley to the point where he momentarily drops the Baby Metroid, it's very hard.Worse is that he does this again later on in Lower Norfair.

As Ridley comes into full view, he lets out his infamous screech, his Leitmotif starts blaring, and before you know it, you're shooting at him. Meters above, you see a pair of glowing orange eyes, scowling sadistically at you. Imagine roaming through a dark base, bodies piled up and everything laid to waste.you see the Baby Metroid, seemingly safe and sound inside of a container. Ridley's notorious Glowing Eyes of Doom intro is one of the most pants-pissing introductions for a character imaginable.The build-up to the title screen and the suspenseful ambience, the corpses of the scientists in a dark, isolated room in which the Infant Metroid is held in.Look what you've done! I'm melting! MELTING!
