Super Metroid is the successor to Metroid II: Return of Samus. In it, Samus answers a distress call at the Space Colony Ceres. She finds that the station is deserted and the researchers are dead. When she located the Metroid Hatchling, she finds that Ridley has taken it and gives chase.

Story continuity

Super Metroid is a direct sequel to Metroid II: Return of Samus. After Samus' mission on SR388 is over, she brings the last surviving Metroid hatchling to the Ceres Space Colony to have scientists harness its power and study it. After it is stolen by Ridley, she returns to Zebes to find it. Metroid: Other M follows the story after Super Metroid.
