Went to the FCEUX website which directed me to a forum at TASVideos.org. I posted this there, but thought I'd start a thread here too in case someone else had noticed this:

Was playing Metroid and noticed some serious slow-down when I fought Ridley. I popped in my original cart to see if the issue was just part of the original game and it turns out that it was. Even when playing on original hardware there was very noticeable slow-down at many points in the game.

Anyway, playing the original cart caused me to realize that when I was playing on the Wiz, the dragons in the lava in Norfair that spit fireballs at you were not spitting fireballs. I tried this on multiple versions of fceu(x) and they never would spit fireballs at me.

In JNES they do spit the fireballs FYI
 
Did some searching around and this appears to be a game oddity and not a problem with the emulator. If anyone has more info that could be interesting.
