Things you should've noticed earlier, but didn't. *SPOILERS*

Quote from Frozen Mr. Toastbrot:

I just now noticed that HUD shows how much battery power is left on the Wii Remote.

Heh, Yeah I actually didn't notice that until my second play through. I sort of wish that bar wasn't there though. It only reminds me how little double A batteries last when playing the game. I think I get somewhere around 5 hours per pair. Kinda sucks.

That's another thing I didn't notice my first play through: Battery life.

Nyko makes this charge center thingy with rechargable batteries and rubberized battery covers, where you just drop a pair of wii remotes on the charger to keep 'em charged, its like $20 at your local walmart (in the US)

I changed batteries once during the entire course of my first playthrough. Nearly twenty hours.

Get some good rechargeable batteries, ya'll.

Quote from Paraxade:

Quote:

Does the communication console on the ceiling of the ship serve any purpose other than at the very beginning of the game?

Pressing the buttons in certain sequences allows you to get hidden messages (all in Japanese, though). Enter Samus's identity code (second, seventh, fifth, first) to get a message from Iwata. Also:

-third, sixth, fourth, eighth for a message from Yamamoto
-eighth, third, fifth, fourth for a message from Miyamoto

There are 5 actually...
The only other one I remember is: 1385

@ above post:
If you mean the feature underneath the platform then yeah I agree. If not then what?
Another thing... In the movie, showing dark samus breaking out of the container at the intro, the room it's located in is the same room as where you get the X-ray visor.

.. Yes, message number 4/5 with code 1385.. I discovered that one by coincidence, actually Shocked

Got a video here:
Can anyone translate it and figure out who that is? Is it Kensuke Tanabe, the producer?

Quote from Hayvel the Great:

Samus's face changes along with her suit as she gets more corrupted. I saw her reflection in the scan visor and saw a large tentacle looking thing on her face.

I think her eyes also change color as the game progresses, they get a bit darker and the pupils get more dialated

Quote from Paraxade:

Iwata:

Hello, this is Iwata from Nintendo.
A president has to take things really seriously, even if it doesn't seem like it. It's understandable if you lose weight from stress...but I get fatter instead. Nobody thinks I'm taking it seriously.

Miyamoto:

Ah, can you hear me? This is Miyamoto.
All of you playing Metroid, can you hear me?
It's fun, isn't it?
I've also worked on many [Metroid] games, but this one is the best yet, don't you think?
Definitely play it all the way to the end.
See you!

Dunno what Yamamoto is saying.

Thanks so much for the translation. Really want to know what all five say, though. But thanks. Where did you get that? Question

By the way, did anyone else notice how it says that the Phazon Metroids are vulnerable to cold, yet they just phase out of space-time when you fire an ice missile at them? Evil or Very Mad

Instead I just fire quick shots at them.

Thats another thing. In prime one and two, it was usually better to fire charged shots at things, but in Prime 3 firing quick shots does more damage faster. Even if both charged and normal shots hit all the time.

Her eyes are blue in ZM, but I don't know about the other games. It's quite possible that, like her hair... and head shape, there isn't really any fixed answer.
