Can't get past this guy...

Hey all. I got this game about a week ago, (it's pretty good :D) but I can't beat Metroid Prime! One time I got to his second form, but beyond that he kicked my arce. Embarassed

Perhaps a strategy or video of some sort? Thanks! :d

This is the first ive seen this sort of thing happen on this particular forum. It does happen quite often on SPPF however.

So is the guest (who at this point appears to be posting so often that they should just register) going to have their question answered?

There isn't really any "strategy" except try to smack him with the Force Ball, as that does the most damage.

Happy now? Le tough crowd... <.<

Anyway, now that nobody has any excuse for going off topic, is there any way to get some extra balls?

...

Extra balls. The pervert market?

First, find a hobo, then knock him out and... Oh, you mean extra lives in pinball.

After you get a few Artifacts on one table, completing minigames may get you Extra Balls instead. You can get them off of the roulette as well, and they appear every 2,000,000 points.

Seems this is the Pinball Help Thread now.

Oh, and welcome to the forum Dragon Stud.

For now, though I do plan on making an official help thread sometime in the near future.

Now would be good. :P

Anyway, if someone could give me a vid or something, tha'd be great. (I just need a guide on the first form; I've heard the second form is much easier. I just panicked. XD)

First, you have to hit either of Prime's legs that are blocking the ramps to the Force Ball charge spots (green things). After you hit or bomb its leg, go up that same ramp tobecome the Force Ball, then hit Prime before the charge wears off. Do that three times.

It it possible to get up the ramps without knocking out Prime's legs, however I'm not sure exactly how to do it. I think you have to go up the ramp all the way on the inside.

In the high scores topic, I accidentally posted as Guest, since I didn't realize I wasn't logged in. It can happen.

On-topic. MP's not that hard, just ram and bomb it. With the Force Ball, it should only take three hits.

EDIT: If it isn't obvious, I'm talking about the second form.

YEAH! I BEAT IT! GO ME!

MP was by far the coolest boss in that game. :P
