As far as I know, this has never been done before.

I've always liked the Morph Ball: You can transform Samus into something 1/2 her normal size, fit into areas she would never be able to fit in herself, and you can even attack with it.

Back when Metrtoid was first created, I can't think of any other game that let the character do something like this, but I may be wrong.

That, and the fact that I love using the Boost Ball to get around faster through those many tunnels in Prime  8)

Good old screw attack.
There is nothing like ripping through those enemys that gave you trouble.

Screw Attack is the best because it lets you destroy any enemy at all (Except bosses) and you can't be hurt by thier weapons.

Screw Attack! Metroid without Screw Attack is... uh... crap... Metroid Prime (which is awesome by the way). Hmm, gotta rethink my logic now. Oh well, Screw Attack rules.

I like the RoS spiderball. Probably because that was my first Metroid game, and found the concept of being to go freestyle on any wall awesome.

Perhaps put a 2D before the first "Metroid"?

Go go Wavebuster!

I'm not even sure what language that is.  Judging from the "maru mari" though, I'd say Japanese.

I knew Maru Mari = morph ball in Japanese, hence my conclusion.  I didn't know Nate spoke Japanese though.  Anyway, back to the topic...

My favourite item still is the Morphball. I loved it since I first played Metroid 2. But somehow I'd like to see the Spazer return in another Metroid game.

I'd vote for Screw Attack, but since I loathe the Space Jump and I'd be voting for both of them... I won't vote at all.

I voted screw attack/space jump.

Screw attack = fun.

Screw attack + Space jump = infinite fun.

One shall stand, one shall ball.
Screw Attack due to it's sheer power and the fact that it makes you invincible.

I voted for Morph Ball, because it's the very first Item you get in Metroid 1/ZM and in  Super Metroid (which I love).
And I also voted for it, because I think the idea of this is ingenious, I couldn't imagine something linke this, because it's too... simple, you know...

The only reason they made they made the morphball was because they couldn't animate someone crouching in 8-bit...

Ready and willing.
Don't think so... there's LOTS of 8-bit crouching around. Unless you're talking about crawling underneath stuff...

Yeah, I meant rolling under things.  Hence the word "animate"...
