In the first game, the Varia Suit can be obtained in [[Brinstar]]. Its effect is to reduce damage by 50%. However, due to the 8-bit capabilities of the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]], the bulky shoulder-pads could not be made, so the suit turned from an orange color to bright pink. | In the first game, the Varia Suit can be obtained in [[Brinstar]].

In the first Metroid, the Varia Suit was just a pink variation of the Power Suit. However, since ''Metroid II'' was released for the original [[Game Boy]], and the only way to differentiate the Varia Suit from the [[Power Suit]] was to change its design. This is how the suit got the large shoulder-pads that it has today. Its effects in the game are reducing damage by 50% and increasing movement speed. | In the first Metroid, the Varia Suit was just a pink variation of the Power Suit.
