Parasite Purge is a minute-long Mini-Game in Metroid Prime Pinball. The object is to defeat all of the Parasites before the time runs out. The Parasites spawn from the top of the screen in waves, with more appearing on higher difficulty levels to replace those killed by Samus. Their behavior consists solely of scurrying across the floor, rather than gathering in collective swarms as they do in Metroid Prime. Contact with them at a slow speed causes Samus to take damage.
If Samus player wins, she will receive a Chozo Artifact or a Special. Parasite Purge can only be played on the Pirate Frigate, at random by entering the Mode Saucer.
A remix of the VS. Hive Totem theme from Metroid Prime plays during this Mini-Game.
