Now imagine the retold Ocean's Eleven ending with all of them getting caught or killed and never seeing a dime. Then you will be able to see the differences between Metroid and Zero Mission.
That has to be one of the most glaring non sequiturs I have ever seen. The extent to which that statement does not follow is so massive that I cannot begin to describe its size.

....Furthermore, even if your argument did make sense: Go check out a few different versions of And Then There Were None. The book's ending is different from the play's is different from the movies'. (In fact, the only film to retain both the character names and outcome of the book was a Russian version with a different title, in Russian.) Heck, even the title is in dispute, which half the versions calling it "And Then There Were None" and the other half calling it "Ten Little Indians", yet they are all still the same story.
Why, Agatha Christie, who created the book, even the play (just like how Nintendo, who created Metroid, also made Zero Mission), and they have huge glaring differences, yet are still the same story.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"
