Create a Metroid Upgrade

What good would that do?

What good would that do?

Think of the possibilities in multiplayer!

[metroid_boy]

Something like a missle or projectile that couses a "medium earthquake" on the wall, floor or even the ceiling, no restrictions. It damages or kills all the enemies hanging in the wall that are been showed in the screen... I'm still working on a name thats not so cliche

Wave Quake Missile.

There was an ability in the game "Fable" that I always found useful.
When you were surrounded and foes would try a dogpile, you could release a short-range burst of omnidirectional force to knock them away.
It didn't do much damage but it was a lifesaver in close fights.
I can see a variation on bombs or super bombs that could be activated while upright with the energy channeled into a force bubble to clear enemies out of the way without having to stop and roll up.

I can't think of anything 2-3 seconds of invisibility could accomplish; regardless of game mode.

Yea, this sounds good.

"You got Wave Quack Missles. Choose it from the icon menu and send that flyin' bastards that divebomb you to hell!"

I can.
Metroids arent the most intelligent things in the world.
This is waht most metroids think about
Sucking energy, and flying

like imagine there is a group of metroids near and you are low on energy
and you use the chameleon suit. The metroids will be like this
Metroid 1: Wait wait! There was a thing here a second ago!
Metroid 2: You lost us some food!

2-3 seconds isn’t long enough for a Metroid to pass by without noticing you. And they probably don’t even see the same way we do, considering that they have no apparent eyes.

[The Illusion]

They're able to detect Samus through her pheromones.

Which she releases when they carry their standard issue Hello Metroidy Vibrators.

[AMetroidGuy]

... I was thinking more along the lines of being able to sense energy, like say, magnetic fields.

[The Illusion]

... I'm really hoping you could tell I was making a joke (one I think suitable for a thread that had a nice little tangent about vibrators).

In all seriousness, I doubt it would be something like Echolocation (as much as the lack of ears would already say, they do skree), as they are able to detect you while in tubes. I doubt it's radio waves of any spectrum either, once again citing the tubes (although my knowledge on that field is kinda fuzzy). As much as I dislike speculation, I would chance a guess at heat sensitivity, but only because they just don't have any apparent sensory organs.



Although I'd really like to know what those pheromones smell like...

Possibly. They do have a weakness to cold, so clearly heat affects them.

Ok, time to steer this back on course

Shoulder-Mounted Cannon (SMC)

Under development by the Galactic Federation, Samus steals this prototype while escaping one of their containment facilities (Post-Fusion). Originally developed for heavy troopers, this cannon takes a while to recharge but packs surprisingly little kick. It will automatically lock on to the same target as the armcannon or it can be configured to fire at a separate object.

Samus' notes: The cannon takes longer to recharge after a shot because its energy is being routed directly from the armcannon, which in turn collects energy from the suit's onboard energy aggregation systems.

Finally, a use for the huge shoulderpads!

I drew up some concepts because I like this idea:
