WHO IS JUSTIN BAILEY?!?!?!
Although rumors have abounded over the years as to the identity of Justin Bailey — ranging from some kid who beat the game to claims of “bailey” being a slang term for “swimsuit” (just in bailey, get it?), the truth is that the JUSTIN BAILEY password is a total fluke. If you play around with Metroid’s password system something you can do with the Metroid Password Generator program, found in Fan Apps), you can come up with other names and words that work as passwords. The “Justin Bailey” code is one which was found early on and happened to work pretty well, so it became widely reported. In other words, there is no Justin Bailey who is associated with the Metroid universe and got his name made into a password.
