Brinstar
Brinstar is one of the main areas on Planet Zebes in the Metroid series, of which Samus Aran is the main character. It appears as as an acid-filled stage in Super Smash Bros. Melee. A Chozo Statue would rise to life occasionally in Brinstar. A related level is Brinstar Depths.
It also appears in Adventure Mode, where the player must battle Samus. After the battle, the planet begins to self-destruct, and the player must escape by jumping on the platforms above.
Stage Side-Effects
The only real gimmick is the acid, which will occasionally rise up and burn any players who don't get to higher ground. However, the acid can sometimes save the player if they fall off, as it will send them flying straight back onto the field. Also, underneath the two side platforms is a bit of sticky substance. If it is hit enough, it will snap, causing the platform to tilt, making it dangerous to walk on.
