Super Metroid Speedrunning Wiki

Welcome to the one-stop place to learn all about Super Metroid speedrunning. Whether you're just starting out, or have been playing Super Metroid since 1994, there's always something new to learn.

All race functions will take place on SpeedRunsLive (SRL) or racetime.gg. If you would like to participate on SRL, join #supermetroid on the SpeedRunsLive IRC so you can be present when future functions are scheduled to occur.

If you have an idea for a future function (such as a puzzle), you can discuss it with the community there, as well as on our Discord server.

Hope to see you off Ceres!
