Today's daily update over at the Super Smash Bros Dojo website has revealed a list of default music tracks that can be heard in the different levels of the upcoming Super Smash Bros Brawl. Of interest to us Metroid fans are the following songs:

Norfair:

• Main Theme (Metroid)
• Theme of Samus Aran (Super Metroid)
• Marionation Gear (Chosoju Mecha MG)

Frigate Orpheon:

• Versus Ridley (Super Metroid)
• Opening/Menu (Metroid Prime)
• Sector 1 (Metroid Fusion)
• Versus Meta Ridley (Metroid Prime)

The Brinstar stage from Melee is making a return, as well as its rockin' remix of the classic Brinstar song from Metroid. It's great to see the recognition for Metroid Fusion, Metroid Prime, and... Chosoju Mecha MG??? Yes, the developers of Brawl are sneaking in a reference to the Japan-only mech title for the Nintendo DS.

It's important to remember that this list of tracks is by no means comprehensive. These are what can be heard in the game right out of the box, but we can expect many more to be unlockable throughout the course of the game.

The next little tidbit that wasn't on the Dojo is the confirmed appearance of another beloved character from the Metroid franchise. I think the image below should pretty much sum things up:

I suppose we all saw this coming. Whether or not he is playable, it's hard to say. Odds are that he will just be a fightable boss in the game. But hey, he's on the playing field, for a fact! This bit of info came from a pair of videos over at Gametrailers. View them at the links below. Thanks to MasonL87 over at the message board for bringing these to our attention.
