Yes, you do need to go through Maridia without Gravity Suit. After finding the PBs you need to jump up the green Maridia shaft. There is a tricky jump involved but it's very possible. From the top of the shaft continue to the right to the big room with the grapple blocks.

I already went there but I coudn't find anything very useful, maybe I haven't searched enough ^^' But is that normal that I don't have Varia Suit and Space Jump yet ?

you're not supposed to get the space jump until you finished maridia. You're not supposed to leave maridia until you finished maridia. you're not supposed to get the varia suit until.. well, until you get the varia suit. you can't miss it.

Thanks for the hints =) I'm looking for the Varia Suit, I came back to Brinstar next to the place you're supposed to find the Charge Beam in the original game, but I can't go there :( Some help anyone ? ^^

You need to use a Crystal Flash to get to the place where the Charge Beam is in the original. The Varia isn't there, though, it's in Lower Norfair.

Oh thanks But I hope you don't mean lower Norfair where Ridley is, because just can't reach this place because of the "lava lake" =/

That's exactly what I mean, you'll just have to collect as many E-tanks and Reserves as possible and then go through the lake. You can get through it without gravity if you wall-jump from the shooting heads.

Yes I did it ^o^ ! Anyway, I've just beat gold Torizo but going through low Norfair still without Varia is too hard and impossible I think, and I'm going to have to fight Torizo again because of a bad savestate >_< Why can't I find the Varia after I beat him ? ;_;

No, you don't. The entrance is to the left of the crumble block pad just under the door on the left wall. By the door, I mean the exit from the room with two giant sidehoppers inside.

As moozooh (the spoiler :-P) said, this isn't the way it's intended. I recommend everybody to update to the latest 1.3 version if you didn't do so already. That way you not only have the (so far) cleanest and newest version, but could also tell if there is still any place where you could break to a item with this stupid Crystal Flash cheat. :-)

I updated my rom (the same I used for 1.2) to 1.3 but it doesn't work, I don't know why... Is there something special to do to open a green gate from the wrong way ? I don't want to fight gold Torizo again, I don't have enough Power Bombs, and not enough life to continue so I must go back to the room where I can get some life (the blue one, after gold Torizo). But I just can't open that green gate from the right, although I started to speed boost before, maybe I don't have the right timing but if there is an easy way to do it, please tell me ^^ EDIT Lol... As I thought, just after I post this message I opened it, and even almot without running before >XD

You're supposed to get to Gauntlet after beating up Torizo? I can't do it... :D Earlier in this thread is said that you're not supposed to IBJ there but walljump but somehow I didn't understand or I suck so badly I can't do it. Someone please advice me.

IBJ means Infinite Bomb Jump, and you don't need to use it to reach the Gauntlet. Wall jumping will suffice, though it'll be a bit tricky.

Anybody else got the same problem with 1.3? Maybe I should note that you have to use a original, new version of Super Metroid (JU) each time you update the patch. Don't patch it over the older 1.2 version, which if you did explains the problem of 1.3 not working. And you skipped Golden Torizo? Mind to tell me how you did it? Because I say this is BS.
