It took me a while to adjust to the idea of an entire station becoming essentially a typical planet in a Metroid title, and I suppose this is probably the best way developers could've handled those circumstances. It'd certainly look less interesting had Samus simply went through an entire game in completely technological craft. Also interesting to note is that the normally hostile planetary species technically do not openly attack Samus, probably the ONLY title to show it. They DO however, attack once infected with the X Parasite, but would otherwise remain in the background. This could be attributed to the species long exposure to the human scientists while in these artificial habitats, making them more docile around Samus.

I wonder if the developers at one point wanted the 'original' fake Chozo Statue, Torizo (from Super Metroid) to make an appearance before changing into a Core-X. Also I'm kind of in the dark why there is a Chozo Statue in the ship anyways, there's no much to study about it, sure it is present around planet SR388; however, it's not like they need to recreate those habitats that were only item rooms.

Wall-jumping is still a bit iffy for me, but much easier than Super Metroid's.
