======================================================================
1)- Getting started
======================================================================
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Welcome to the wonderful world of Metroid! Er, Metroid Prime. You
control the female antagonist Samus in her quest to rid the universe
of the Space Pirates and Metroids. In the Prime series though, your
goal changes a bit and is more about the elimination of Metroid Prime,
and the eradication of Phazon from known space.
======================================================================
1.1)- Controls
======================================================================
Wii Remote:
A - Fire (hold to charge shots)
B - Jump (press again to double-jump)
D pad:
Down - Fire Missile
Up - Take Screenshot (if unlocked)
- - Hold to bring up visor selection screen
+ - Hold to active Hypermode
1 - Brings up map screen and options menu
2 - Gives you a hint at your current objective
Pointer - Aim/turn
Motion sensors:
When interacting with objects, twist/push/pull accordingly
When in morph ball mode, pull upward to jump
Nunchuk:
Joy stick - walk/sidestep
C - Activate morph ball mode
Z - Hold to Lock-on
Motion sensors:
When locked on to a grapple object, cast forward to throw lasso, pull
back to pull the object
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1.1.1)- Control Options
----------------------------------------------------------------------
- The functions of the A and B buttons can be swapped.
- The functions of - and + can be swapped.
- There are 3 different levels of turning sensitivity in the options
menu: Basic, Standard, and Advanced.
Basic makes you turn very slowly, having to point to the very edges of
the screen to turn.
Standard is a bit quicker, but can still be slow in some situation.
Advanced is by far the best for vets of the FPS genre. You turn very
quickly, but can be disorienting until you get used to it.
- Wii remote sensitivity setting can cancel out interference if your
targeting reticule seems to be jumping everywhere. This option can be
reached by pressing the Home button on the Wii Remote and selecting
Wii Remote Settings. The lower the sensitivity, the more IR light
needs to be present before the pointer will sense motion. If you sit
really far away from your TV, you should turn the sensitivity all the
way up.
- Free lock-on, unless you're a really bad shot, should be turned on.
Free lock-on means that if you lock on to an enemy, your screen will
turn to keep pace with him, but you are free to move your targeting
reticule anywhere on screen, allowing for more precise shots. If this
feature is off, when you lock onto a target your reticule will also
follow him and sometimes make boss fights a bit more complicated.
======================================================================

======================================================================
1.3)- Basic Gameplay
======================================================================
The basic gameplay in Metroid Prime is pretty much a free-roam FPA.
This means you are free to roam in any area, at any time, provided you
have the upgrades necessary to get there and the current mission
permits, and it's in the first-person perspective.
The main object is normally get to a certain location and activate
some device to help you reach the main boss and causing massive damage
to the Space Pirates while doing so.
To accomplish this, you use a variety of devices integrated into your
Power Suit, most of which you'll pick up in the course of the game.
This includes an arm-mounted energy cannon, missiles, bombs, and
grapples.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1.3.1)- Heads Up Display
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Otherwise known as a HUD, your heads up display tells you whats going
on with your suit and your surroundings. The HUD in Metroid Prime 3 is
pretty self explanatory.
Top left of screen ----------------------------------------- Top right
----------------------------------------------------------------------
OO                                            /                  \

< O >  - 6

/  10
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Bottom left --------------------------------------------- Bottom right
1) Radar: Radar tells you if there are enemies nearby. You are the dot
in the center, while orange dots are enemies around you. Note that
the radar is indiscriminate to walls and such, so it may be picking
up an enemy on the other side of a door.
2) Current Health: Your health is represented by the number to the
right of the health bar. 100 is a full tank of energy, while 00 is
empty. If your tank hits zero and you have no extra Tanks left, its
game over.
3) Energy Tanks: while your health bar maxes out at 100, you can carry
even more via Energy Tanks. How many spare Tanks you have is
represented by small cubes over your health bar. A full cube equals
100 energy, while an empty cube means 0. If the tank your are
currently using hits zero, a spare tank will automatically be
loaded. Tanks can be refilled by collecting health. If you collect
more the 100 health in one tank, you will start to fill up the next
tank.
4) Health Bar: in addition to the number on the left, your health is
also indicated by a bar. It means the exact same thing as the
number, just in bar form.
5) Map: your map gives you a 3-D perspective of the room you're in, as
well as any surrounding rooms. The green arrow represents you.
6) Targeting Reticule: Marks where you're aiming.
7) Missile Ammo: Very simple. Top number is how many missiles you
have, bottom number is the maximum amount you can carry.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1.3.2)- Interactive Devices
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Interactive devices are new to Prime 3. They allow you to "interact"
with them in other ways then just shooting them (as in more Metroid
games). They vary in use, but are normally found in 4 forms:
Hand Scanner:
Walk up and press A to place your left hand on the scanner. Normally
used to activate doors and lifts.
Manual Lock:
Walk up and press A to grab it. Pull the Wii remote back, twist either
clockwise or counterclockwise, then push back in. Most often used for
early locked areas and retrieving Energy Cells.
Password Terminal:
Walk up and press A to activate. The center will have a grouping of
letters. Point and press the letters on the outside in the same order.
Note that some of these terminals (especially Space Pirate versions)
are X-ray encrypted, meaning they can only be used when looking
through the X-ray visor.
Dial Lock:
Walk up and press A to interact. Twist the Wii Remote to line up the
notches with the protrusions on the twisty part. When one is lined up,
press A to insert, then move on to the next until the rings are
complete. Note, like Password Terminals, these can be X-ray encrypted.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1.3.3)- Energy Tanks, Missiles, Gunship Missiles, and Energy Cells
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh my! >.>
Ok, four types of powerups in the game:
Energy Tanks, Missiles, Gunship Missiles, and Energy Cells.
Energy Tanks are greenish blue cylinders. When you pick them up, they
will add 100 points to your overall health (one square over your
health bar).
Missile Expansions look like large missiles in a tube and will add 5
to your overall missile capacity.
Gunship Missile Expansions are pretty useless, but needed for 100%
completion. They add 1 to the total number of missiles your ship can
carry.
Energy Cells are a pretty new way of thinking: they power things.
Energy Cells look a lot like Energy Tanks. They aren't a suit upgrade,
but instead are used to power thing in basses (doors, shields, ect).
for the most part, you will remove a cell to power down something. The
only time you really ever use cells to power something is on the G.F.S
Valhalla, which isn't until much later in the game.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1.3.4)- Field Items: Healing and reloading
----------------------------------------------------------------------
There are only 3 types of field items:
Health, Missiles, and Gunship Missiles.
These randomly appear after defeating enemies and randomly blowing
stuff up. You can either walk through them or charge and hold your
power Beam to draw them to you.
Health is in the form of little round balls of Phazon. The color and
size of the ball tells how much it will heal. Purple heals 10,
Blue 25, Red 50, and Yellow 100 units of health.
Missiles come in 3 sizes, and the only way to tell them apart is the
size of the item. Small gives 5, medium 10, and large 25.
Gunship Missiles look like your ship, only small and glowing. The
restore 1 missile each. You only need to use your ship's missiles like
6 times in the game, so you wont be seeing many of these.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1.3.5)- Hypermode
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hypermode becomes usable just after your mission on Norion.
Hypermode is a very important, if not dangerous, part of the game.
After Norion, Samus's body starts producing Phazon (a radioactive
substance) all on its own. The Galactic Federation installs a PED
(Phazon Enhancement Device) into your power suit, allowing you to tap
into your Phazon reserves to enhance your abilities.
To activate Hypermode, press and hold the + button until it kicks in.
Hypermode drains 1 full Energy Tank (100 units of health), and
exchanges that for power.
When in Hypermode, everything looks blue and your power Beam is
replaced with the Phazon Beam. The Phazon Beam is MUCH more powerful,
but every shot will drain the energy bar at the top of the screen.
Damage will also reduce the bar. When the bar completely drains, you
will be forced out of Hypermode and will be missing 1 Energy Tanks
worth of health.
To end Hypermode on your own, press and hold the + button again. If
you willfully come out of Hypermode, some of your health will be
restored.
Beware though, if you stay in Hypermode for too long, you will become
corrupted, and the bar at the top will turn red and slowly start to
fill. If the bar fills up, you'll die. When this happens, rapidly
press A to vent all the Phazon.
Technically, you could stay in corrupted mode for a long time, so long
as the bar doesn't fill all the way up. But this isn't the case, as
when you are in corrupted mode your health will slowly drain. If you
stay in it for too long, all of your health will drain, and you'll
die. You don't have a bar to indicate how much health you have left,
so its best to vent the Phazon as fast as possible to avoid any
problems.
At start, the only weapon you have in Hypermode is the Phazon Beam,
but you get more with time.
**NOTE**
Some Space Pirates will throw Phazon grenades at you. If one of them
explodes near you, your PED suit will overload and you will be put in
a corrupted state. Same rules apply as if you accidentally entered the
state: vent the Phazon or die.
======================================================================
1.4)- Suit Upgrade Basics
======================================================================
Suit upgrades are a very important part of the game, in fact, most of
the game you'll spend looking for new suit parts to access new areas.
You start with the basic upgrades, and unlike the other Prime games
don't lose any of your upgrades early on.
Upgrades marked with (Starting Upgrade) mean you start the game with
them.
Note that a more complete guide to suit upgrades can be found later in
the guide.

======================================================================
1.5)- Samus's Ship
======================================================================
Samus's ship is by far not new to the Metroid series, but being able
to actually get inside and use the ship is.
There are plenty of bright and flashy things in there; enough to keep
and idiot entertained for many days. Few of these gizmos are of any
use though.
To use something in the ship, point at it and press A, then point
again and press A (again). Here is a list of gadgets in the ship:
Left Side:
Left orange button: Game stats (enemies killed, shots fired, ect)
Right orange button: Activates attack mode (never used)
Big green thing: Thrusters. Only used once.
Middle:
Lower red square: Map Brings up the map and lets you choose a
landing site.
Top green circle: Radio. Only actually used once, but several
secret messages can be heard with special combos
(see secrets section)
Right Side:
Right orange button: Biohazard scanner. Useless.
Left orange button: Activates lockdown. Useless.
======================================================================
1.6- Scanning Basics
======================================================================
Scanning is preformed by holding the - button and pointing at the top
third of the screen to select the scan visor. Then use the lock-on
button (Z) to scan an object.
Objects that can be scanned are highlighted by the scan visor.
Important objects are normally red (but sometimes blue), normal
objects that have some purpose or backstory are blue, while green
objects have already been scanned before (or at least an object the
same as that one).
You have to stayed locked on to the object for a few seconds for the
scan to complete. Once it has, the game will pause and a brief
description will come up in the bottom center of the screen. If the
object is one of importance, it will be added to the log book, at
which point you can press 1 to immediately view the full profile, or
look at it later.
======================================================================
1.7- Medal Basics
======================================================================
You earn medals throughout the game for accomplishing certain tasks.
These include scanning objects, completing special objectives, and
defeating enemies.
When a medal is earned, it will flash at the top of the screen for a
second. There are four different types of medals: Red, Blue, Gold, and
Green. The type earned depends on the task completed. Every task has a
set medal color associated with it.
Medals can be used to buy things in the extras menu.
For a full list of medals and their requirements, see the medals
section. For a list of extras, see the extras menu section.
======================================================================
1.7.1)- Extras Basics
======================================================================
When you first enter your profile, you can choose the "Extras" option.
In there, you can use your medals to buy extras. Most of these are
pretty useless, but there are a few neat ones.
The total number of medals you have is shown at the bottom of the
screen. Each extra costs a certain amount of medals.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1.7.2)- Friend Vouchers
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Friend Vouchers are special. They can be traded in for a Green medal
(it's the only way to get green medals), but not in a conventional
way.
First, you have to have Wiiconnect24 on in the Wii options menu.
Second, you need to have some Friends on your Wii Friend list that
have Metroid Prime 3.
Finally, get them to send you a Friend Voucher. When you start your
profile, you will have the option to convert any number of Vouchers
you've received from Friends into green medals.
Beware, as every profile in the game shares the same Friend list, and
as such the same Friend Vouchers received.
To send other people Vouchers, select "Friend Vouchers" then select
someone whose name is black (as opposed to gray) as that means they've
played Metroid Prime 3. You can send them as many Vouchers as you
want, but only one at a time. Remember, you don't have infinite
Vouchers, you have to earn them in game.
======================================================================
1.8)- Metriod Timeline
======================================================================
The order in which the Metroid games go chronologically.
- Metroid (Zero Mission)
- Metroid Prime
- Metroid Prime: Hunters
- Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
- Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
- Metroid II: Return of Samus
- Super Metroid
- Metroid Fusion
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1.8.1)- Summery of the story thus far
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The rest of the Metroid series doesn't really have much of a bearing
on the Prime series. All's you need to know from those games is that
the Space Pirates are bad, and Samus has foiled their plots time and
time again.
As said at the start of the guide, while most Metroids deal with the
Space Pirates, Metroid Prime has more to do with Metroid Prime and the
Space Pirates just play a bit part; just kind of an annoyance.
Ok, onward to Metroid Prime.
--== Samus's background ==--
Samus was orphaned during a raid on her homeworld (K-2L) by the Space
Pirates. She was rescued by a highly Advanced and philosophical bird-
like race called the Chozo, when she was then "infused" with Chozo
blood. Regarded as an excellent warrior by the Chozo, they gave her
specially designed battle armor: the Power Suit. Weather Samus knows
of her past or not is unknown, though some things do suggest that she
suffers from amnesia. However, just before the events of the original
Metroid, the few remaining Chozo on Zebes are killed (most likely
because of the Space Pirates). The Chozo themselves were spread out
across the universe, and are a highly regarded race before their
death.
--== Metroid Prime 1 ==--
In Prime 1, you start out continuing your chase of the Space Pirates
from Zebes and land on a seemingly abandoned research frigate above
Tallon IV (IV = 4 in roman numerals). Inside, you find mutated
creatures from the surrounding planets and strange experiments
regarding a new highly-radioactive substance dubbed "Phazon." After a
few skirmishes and some rouge mutants, the space station goes haywire
and starts to crash into the planet. You escape just in time and give
chase onto the planets surface.
Once on Tallon IV, you discover that this was once a homeworld of the
Chozo. You (as the player) discover much about the Chozo during this
game. You also learn that the planet is slowly being destroyed Phazon,
and that the Phazon was originally brought to the planet via a meteor
(dubbed "Leviathan" in Prime 3) (this Phazon is also what killed the
Chozo on Tallon IV). Near the end of your journey, Samus's Power Suit
gets infused with Phazon. This infusion grants you invulnerability to
the radioactive effects of Phazon.
With the so called Phazon Suit, you can finally face off against
creature that is creating the Phazon: Metroid Prime, who still lives
in the meteor that originally brought him to Tallon IV.
After a long battle, Metroid Prime is finally defeated. Just before he
dies, he soaks up all residual Phazon from the planet; including
Samus's Phazon Suit.
--== Metroid Prime 2 ==--
You get a distress signal from Galactic Federation (good guys) troops
on the unstable planet of Ather. Some neat stuff happens, and there is
a lot background to the planet, but hardly any mentions of the Chozo,
and nothing really about Phazon.
However, you do learn that Metroid Prime is still alive, and is now
called "Dark Samus". He fused himself to Samus's Phazon Suit and
copied some of Samus's DNA, thus gaining human like form and some
sentient-like abilities. He also has access to several of Samus's
weapons, which he powered up through the use of Phazon. His main goal
still seems to be the same: absorb and spread as much Phazon as
possible.
--== Metroid Prime 3 ==--
Well, you'll have to play it and find out :P

--== (Room) ==--
New Scans:
(New things to scan in this room)
Old Scans:
(Old scans are listed for two reasons: 1) to give warning of a danger
in the area, IE, pirates mostly 2) To make sure you got a scan that
may have been hard to get earlier in the game. Therefor, old scans
aren't always listed, reguardless of whats in the room).
New Medals:
(New medals you can earn)
New Pickups:
(New upgrades/expansions you can now get)
** NOTE 2 **
Logbook scans are NOT needed for the 100% ending. They ARE needed for
bragging rights, however (at least in my book).

Landing beacon
Federation Marine
Halberd-class turret
Fleet mechanic
Galactic federation crates
Heavy federation creates
Galactic federation door
Training drone
New Medals:
Red x4
Gold x1
Friend Voucher x1
Walk forward. Turn around and scan your ship and the small blue things
around it (landing beacons). Continue forward and shoot the targets as
prompted. Several things to do in here before we leave.
First, scan the Marine right in front of you (federation marine).
Next, scan the small blue object overtop of the large door in front of
you (halberd-class turret). Turn left and scan the small create and
the person in front of it (galactic federation create, fleet
mechanic). Walk around to the other side of the transport thing and
scan the large create (heavy federation create).
Turn around. You should see a blue plate on the ground (when in scan
mode). Walk over and stand on it. You should now see two small blue
things pop up, scan them (training drone).
Time for a mini game. From any angle, shoot one of the training
drones. It should pop up into the air. Fire at it again in air to
"juggle" it. Keep it up in the air for 10 hits to net you a gold
credit. Keep it up for 20 for a Friend Voucher.
With that done, go up the ramp on the left. Scan the door before
entering (galactic federation door).
--== Docking Bay access ==--
New Scans:
Female fleet Trooper

attack. Turn and face the docked ship. Two more Pirates will jump down

!!Boss Fight!!
This fight may be hard to you now, but later in the game this guy
isn't even classified as a mini-boss. Be sure to scan him, just to get
it out of the way. Now for strategy:
Strategy: shoot the large red orbs under his arms until they blow,
then wait for him to shoot a large glowing blue orb out his mouth.
Fire at the orb to send it back to him, thus blowing up in his face.
After the armor on his head explodes, start shooting at the exposed
area until he goes down.
Attacks:
Phazon breath: spews phazon at you, very slow and easy to dodge
Phazon orbs: shoots blue orbs at you. Fire at them to damage him.
Phazon Beam: fires an arching Beam of phazon. Jump to dodge.
Fire balls: fires large balls of fire. Quickly dodge left or right to
avoid.
Ground quake: pounds the ground creating a shockwave. Jump to dodge.
HP:
Red arms: 12 shots each
Head armor: 4 Phazon orbs
Head: 40 shots

With that over, save and enter you ship.

remember where this is at.
Follow the hall around. You'll be attacked by 3 sets of aroMines. Take
out all three. Turn around and go back to that terminal. It's a hand
scanner. Use it. Use the morph ball to get into the space that  opens
up.
Roll right and blow up the fan. Continue right and let the jet push
you over the top. Carefully jump up the next set of jumps, as the air
jets can push you off. Once at the top, destroy the fan again.
Fall down and get blasted back up. Destroy the fan. Don't worry about
the thing shooting you. Navigate the jets right; one jet will stop you
from moving forward while it's on, you'll have to jump while its off
which isn't very long. Just after that jet, there is a small jet on
the ground. Stop over top of it and wait for it to blow. Destroy the
fan at the top and fall off. Another jet should push you right past
the Missile Expansion. Go back and get it.
Destroy the last fan to be back where you started. Roll right and ride
the jet back out. (M10)
Follow the path around till you get to some debris blocking your path.
Use the grapple lasso to pull it out of the way. Use the morph ball to
get through the gap.

scan it, then use a missile to open it. Scan the hologram (map
station) and the three terminals (the three lore's) enter the hologram
for the map of the area.
Walk out and continue right. Around the next bend some debris will
fall in your way. Destroy it with a charged shot. Around the next
corner the same thing will happen.
Just past the second set of debris are some jumpMines. Scan them, then
shoot them to detonate them. Go through the missile door.

Ok, a real fight is about to break out! :)
Walk out into the bay to be ambushed by 2 Pirate militia and 2 Pirate
Troopers (be sure to scan the later). I would take out the militia
first, as they can get annoying.
After you've dispatched all four, look to the right and scan the Space
Pirate ATC while it drops off two shield Pirate militia. Take them out
by first pulling off there shields.
Phase 3: two AeroTroopers. Locking on, then firing a missile normally
works well.
Finally, you'll start getting shot at by an ATC. Find it and aim for
the glowing grill just above the cannon. Missiles don't work so well,
and charged shots can be to slow against the wobbly craft. Instead
just pour rapid fire into it.
....
Rundas is such a showoff....
Well, do as he says and use the command visor to call in your ship.
Save and reload, but don't enter.

of the lights should turn on. quickly shoot it, followed by the next
light and final one. If you don't hit them fast enough, it will reset
and you'll have to start over. After, a grappling target should
appear. Rip the lock off and open the door.

Well, after everything blows up, walk into the center of the room. You
will be assaulted by 2 waves of 3 jolly roger drones. The easiest way
to win this fight is to let the bots circle around you while keeping a
close eye on your radar. As soon as you see one of the blips stop,
quickly turn in that direction and hit it with a missile.
After the fight, some debris should be blown away, granting you access
to that ledge. Jump over to it and use a charged blast to destroy the
rest of the debris. Use the manual lock to activate the generator,
then jump back to the handscanner you just saw in the cutscene. Use
that to turn on the generator.
Ok, we're done. Go back to your ship two rooms back.
Oh, and enjoy that awesome cutscene while you're at it.

Past him, there are some jump Mines and a hoard of CrawlMines. Take
