The Metroid series's most most famous cameo comes in the Super Smash Bros. series. Since the first Super Smash Bros. to Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the Metroid series has been constantly referred to in many ways, the most obvious of which is the appearance of Samus as a character. Both games are developed and owned by Nintendo, allowing easy access to characters without the worry of copyright laws.

Assist Trophies are Brawl-exclusive items resembling small capsules. An Assist Trophy is a small item that can be used to summon one of twenty-five Nintendo characters, Shadow the Hedgehog, or Gray Fox from the Metal Gear Solid series. There is only one assist trophy that alludes the the Metroid series, the Metroid assist trophy. The Metroid assist trophy releases a larger than normal juvenile Metroid to attack any of the user's foes.
