I plugged my DS4 into the computer and It works perfectly with zsnes with no setup whatsoever. I'm not reading any of the MP stuff in the thread so I can still be surprised but I can't wait to get there. Right now I'm stuck in the quicksand zone. I found a place I can progress but I have to be a ball and I can't bomb jump in quicksand so I'm gonna try that mockball thing. I guess I missed an upgrade? Favorite moment so far was running into a statue at a dead end and figuring out all on my own that it looked just like the statue that holds upgrades, then the payoff when I morph balled on it and it walked me down to the next area 😁

Nothing requires mockball, it's a glitch that you can use to sequence break. I wouldn't try to use it for one area you can't get past

I've never actually played a metroid game but I'll probably play super metroid with my epic new gamepad.

I played through Super Metroid pretty recently again and I think I got stuck on that bit too.

I've never been stuck on super metroid. I guess you could say it's just extremely easy for me.

I get stuck for a while at the general area in question almost every time I play before I remember (or stumble upon) where to go. so once the OP has progressed I want to hear the solution so that I can burn it into my memory

it starts off as barely doable at all and you have the tiniest window to get missiles into his belly, then in the latter part of the flight he flies by in like 3 frames and i dont know how tf youre expected to beat that without save states

There's a very easy way to never get hit by Draygon, but I won't say anything until the OP has faced him.

I'm almost 100% certain that I tried the correct way to get into Maridia on my first play through but then turned off the power because it doesn't work until after you move.

That's the secret trick if you're incredibly good and is actually harder than fighting him normally. There's another way.

it kills him and gives you Blue Suit which is an incredible glitch that's great to toggle on with cheats and leave on

Today is my last long work day so I'll beat this either tomorrow or wednsday, assuming I can figure out how to pass my current roadblock. Playing with a DS4 is pretty awesome. Grapple swinging is much easier but somehow platforming actually feels harder (I'm using the DPAD).

Dragygon wasn't very hard. It took me two play sessions to figure out why I couldn't progress and I'm embarrassed to admit that I never even tried power sprinting through the sandpit part. I have the x ray scope and everything and it didn't occur to me until a couple hours ago. I just got this sick plasma beam & space jump so I'm gonna go back and check my map for blue areas.

The part when you get the plasma beam is so cool, with those tough pirates and egg thingies on your way that are just there so you can obliterate them with plasma on you way back.

the Wii Prime Trilogy retroactively added the springball to Prime 1 and 2 and this is perhaps the greatest crime Nintendo has committed in recent memory
