Easier way of doing early wrecked ship!

2005-04-22 06:49:06 am

mainly for those who cant do the super-missile-open-the-door trick, or those who havent mastered sparking in super yet (i.e. me, how the heck do you mid air spark!?!?)

anyway, just do the first part as normal, charging, then sparking to the right over the moat, mid air if you want to skip the missile, then hit the wall, go through the door, and quick charge on the area in front of the door, and spark right to the wrecked ship!

im not saying this is new, im pretty sure it isnt, but ist just an easier method, and should go on the early wrecked ship break-in page.

For mid-air spark, make sure you're not spinning, and then press forward and jump, just like you would do it on the ground, but in the air, so you can't hold forward, it would be like spinjumping but in the air, and you can't shinespark with spinjumps, can you?

And if you watch Smokey's runs, what you just wrote is in them, if you wanna know how to play through the game fast, you don't go to m2k2 and watch the speedtricks, you watch a speedrun.

i dont think ill ever do a SM speedrun, im a ZM kinda guy, i just play it for fun...

but still, it should be on the site:

techniques: quick/short charge

and using it in the big platforms-on-water grapple room

I('d) like to watch (some MP3 runs)

The method you're talking about are how most people would enter the Wrecked Ship (not early though). I and smokey both did that method in our older runs.

Yes, you can midair spark from a spin jump. Let go of jump, tap up on the d-pad, then hit the direction (something like that is what I did to midair spark).

Pressing up on the d-pad cancels the spin.

Yeah, if you aren't holding jump, Samus doesn't spark straight up, she hovers there, allowing you to spark vertically from a spin jump. IIRC I did that a couple of times in my :55 (Maridia before Botwoon is coming to mind). I'm pretty sure that's what I did there.

Quote from Kejardon's 14/15% Faq:

To jump straight up, simply hit the jump button while standing still. To jump diagonal, hold R and hit the jump button while standing still. To move horizontal, hold the jump button followed by the left or right button while standing still. Mid air speed jumps can be performed also. Perform a running jump, so that you don't do a super jump. To super jump up, hit R in mid air. To jump diagonal, hold R followed immediatly by jump. To jump horizontal, hold the direction, then hold R followed by jump.

Can't really remember how I usually do it 'cuz once you do it enough, it just kinda happens without thinking about it.

Crud! That's supposed to be tap R, *not* hold R!

... yeah. I need to fix that. >_<
