The Varia Suit, for example, protects Samus' armor against high temperatures, allowing her to enter volcanic regions. Some items are obtained after fights. Items must be collected in a specific order; for example, players cannot access certain areas until they find a certain Beam to open doors, or discover new ordnance with which to beat bosses.

Players are incentivized to explore to find upgrades such as packs and extra.The, which simulates the inside of Samus' helmet, features a radar display, a map, ammunition for missiles, a health meter, a danger meter for negotiating hazardous landscape or materials, and a health bar and name display for bosses.

While Samus is in Morph Ball form, the view changes to a.Throughout the game, players must find and collect items that improve Samus's arsenal and suit, including weapons, armor upgrades for Samus's Power Suit and items that grant abilities—including the Morph Ball, which allows Samus to compress herself into a ball in order to roll into narrow passages and drop energy bombs, and the Grapple Beam, which works by latching onto special hooks called grapple points, allowing Samus to swing across gaps. Unlike those in earlier games in the series, the beam weapons in Metroid Prime have no stacking ability, in which the traits of each beam merge. Instead, the player must cycle the four beam weapons; there are charge combos with radically different effects for each. Other upgrades include boots that allow Samus to double-jump and a Spider Ball upgrade that allows her to climb magnetic rails.Items from previous Metroid games appear with altered functions. Art galleries and are unlockable if the player collects a high percentage of items and Scan Visor logs.

Prime is one of the first Metroid games to address the reason Samus does not start with power-ups acquired in previous games; she begins the game with some upgrades, including the Varia Suit, Missiles and Grapple Beam, but they are lost during an explosion on the Space Pirate frigate Orpheon. The producers stated that starting with some power-ups was a way to give the player 'different things to do' and to learn the functions of these items before settling into the core gameplay. Synopsis Background and setting Metroid Prime is the first of the three-part Prime storyline. Retro Studios wrote an extensive storyline for Metroid Prime, which was considered a major difference from previous Metroid games. Short appear before important battles, and a scanner in the heads-up display extracts backstory-related information from objects. The Prime trilogy is set between the events of Metroid and Metroid II, but according to some sources, including Brazil's former Nintendo distributor and the of Metroid Prime, the events in the Prime games occur after Super Metroid. The Brazilian publicity states that the Phazon meteor is a piece of Zebes, which was destroyed after Super Metroid.

However, one of the logbook entries from reveals that the meteor was a 'Leviathan' from the planet Phaaze.The game takes place on the planet Tallon IV, formerly inhabited by the. Five decades ago, the Chozo race fell after a impacted on Tallon IV. The meteor contaminated the planet with a corruptive, mutagenic substance that the Space Pirates later named Phazon, and also brought with it a creature known to the Chozo as 'The Worm'. A large containment field emitter of the Artifact Temple in the Tallon Overworld area was built as a seal to the meteor's energies and influence within the crater where it landed, which the attempt to disable or bypass in order to gain better access in order to extract the Phazon. The containment field is controlled by twelve Chozo artifacts that are scattered around the planet. Plot story chronology.intercepts a from the Space Pirate Orpheon, whose crew have been slaughtered by the Pirates' own, experimental subjects. At the ship's core, she battles with the Parasite Queen, a giant version of the tiny parasites aboard the ship.

The Parasite Queen is defeated and falls into the ship's reactor core, initiating the destruction of the ship. While Samus is escaping from the frigate, she encounters a cybernetic version of called Meta Ridley. During her escape, an explosion damages Samus's suit, causing some of her abilities to malfunction.

Samus escapes the frigate and chases Ridley in her towards the nearby planet Tallon IV.After landing in the Tallon Overworld, Samus explores nearby areas of Tallon IV and discovers the Chozo Ruins, the remains of the Chozo civilization. As she explores the ruins, she learns the Chozo on the planet had been killed by Phazon from a meteor that impacted on Tallon IV many years ago. After regaining her lost abilities in the ruins, Samus finds her way to the Magmoor Caverns, a series of -filled tunnels, which are used by the Space Pirates as a source of. Following the tunnels, Samus travels to the Phendrana Drifts, a cold, mountainous location which is home to an ancient Chozo ruin and Space Pirate research labs used to study the.

After obtaining new abilities, Samus explores the wreckage of the crashed Orpheon and then infiltrates the Phazon Mines, where she learns the outcome of the Phazon experimentation project, including the Metroid Prime, a creature that had come to Tallon IV with the meteor. Advancing deeper into the mines, Samus fights her way through the Phazon-enhanced Space Pirates and obtains the Phazon Suit after defeating the monstrous Omega Pirate.Samus discovers the Artifact Temple that the Chozo built to contain the Metroid Prime and to stop the Phazon from spreading over the planet. To gain access to the meteor's Impact Crater, Samus collects and unites the twelve Chozo artifacts. As Samus returns to the temple with the artifacts, Meta Ridley appears and attacks her.

Samus defeats Ridley and enters the Impact Crater, where she finds the Metroid Prime. After she defeats it, the Metroid Prime absorbs Samus's Phazon Suit and explodes. Samus escapes the collapsing crater and leaves Tallon IV in her ship. If the player completes the game with all of the items obtained, the Metroid Prime is shown reconstructing itself into. Development. Further information:According to producer, Nintendo did not develop a Metroid game for the (N64) as the company 'couldn't come out with any concrete ideas'.

Metroid co-creator said he could not imagine how the N64 controller could be used to control Samus. Nintendo approached another company to make an N64 Metroid, but the offer was declined, supposedly because the developers thought they could not equal Super Metroid.Metroid Prime was a collaboration between and and the American company. Retro was created in 1998 by an alliance between Nintendo and founder.

The studio would create games for the forthcoming targeted at a mature demographic. After establishing its offices in in 1999, Retro worked on four GameCube projects. When Miyamoto visited Retro in 2000, he suggested a new Metroid game after seeing their prototype.

In 2000 and early 2001, four games in development at Retro were canceled, including an RPG, Raven Blade, leaving Prime the only game in development. During the last nine months of development, Retro's staff, as according to senior artist James Dargie, 'I think it took us almost six months to do the first level that Nintendo approved, then we had less than a year to do the rest of the game.'

We didn't want to make just another first person shooter. Making a first person shooter would have been a cheap and easy way to go. But making sure the themes and concepts in Metroid were kept was something that we wanted to do. And translating those things into 3D was a real challenge. For example, translating the morph ball was one of the hardest things to do.—Michael Kelbaugh, Retro Studios president since 2003Nintendo created the music, Retro handled art and engineering, and both teams worked on the overall design.

The Japanese crew, which included producers Miyamoto, Kensuke Tanabe, Kenji Miki and designer and Metroid co-creator Sakamoto, communicated with Retro through e-mails, telephone conferences and personal gatherings. The game was planned to use a third-person perspective, but after Miyamoto intervened this was changed to first-person perspective and almost everything already developed was scrapped.

The change was prompted by camera problems experienced by, which was developing the N64 game. According to director, Miyamoto 'felt that shooting in third person was not very intuitive'; Pacini also said that exploration is easier using first-person. Pacini said that after picking that perspective, the crew decided not to make a traditional first-person shooter.

He said, 'We weren't trying to fit in that genre. We had to break down the stereotypes of what a first-person game is and make a fun Metroid game.' Pacini stated that Retro tried to design the game so that the only difficult parts would be boss battles and players would not be afraid to explore because 'the challenge of the game was finding your way around'. Senior designer Mike Wikan said that the focus on exploration led the team to spend time making the platform jumping 'approachable to the player', and to ensure the gameplay had 'shooting as a very important, though secondary, consideration'. Retro developed the storyline under the supervision of Yoshio Sakamoto, who verified that the ideas were consistent with the lore of the earlier games. The developers intended that, a boss from Metroid and Super Metroid, would appear in Prime, and designer Gene Kohler modeled and skinned him for that purpose, but he was cut for time reasons. The team considered implementing the Speed Booster power-up from Super Metroid but concluded it would not work well because of the first-person perspective and 'limitations imposed by the scale of our environment'.The first public appearance of the game was a ten-second video at 2000.

In November of the same year, Retro Studios confirmed its involvement with the game in the 'job application' part of its website. In February 2001, the game was confirmed by Nintendo, which also announced that because of its emphasis on exploration and despite the first-person perspective, Metroid Prime would be a first-person adventure rather than a first-person shooter. In May 2001, the game was showcased at, with its title confirmed as Metroid Prime.

Audio , assisted by Kouichi Kyuma, composed the music for Prime. The soundtrack contains of tracks from previous games in the series because Yamamoto wanted 'to satisfy old Metroid fans. It's like a present for them', he said.

The initial Tallon Overworld theme is a reinterpretation of Metroid 's Brinstar theme, the music heard in Magmoor Caverns is a new version of the music from Super Metroid 's Lower Norfair area, and the music heard during the fight with Meta Ridley is a fast-paced reimagining of the Ridley boss music first featured in Super Metroid—which has reappeared in most Metroid games since. Initially provided sound effects for the game, but Shigeru Miyamoto thought they were not yet good enough for an extended presentation at SpaceWorld 2001.

The game supports setups and can be played in. The official soundtrack to the game was released on an called Metroid Prime & Fusion Original Soundtracks, which was published by on June 18, 2003. Release Metroid Prime was released for the in North America on November 17, 2002, and in Japan and Europe the following year on February 28, 2003 and March 21, 2003, respectively.Prime was released for the GameCube in five versions. The original North American and Japanese versions and the second North American version, which contained minor changes, all used a loader that sometimes caused the game to in specific rooms. The European version resolved these glitches and contained altered elements of the gameplay to prevent, a slower loader that prevented the occasional crashes, slightly different story details, and narration in the opening and closing scenes. Some of these changes were carried over from the PAL version to the NTSC region's re-release, along with additional changes not made in other releases.

This version, which was bundled with a silver GameCube, also contained a second disc featuring a preview trailer and a for Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, a timeline of Metroid games, and an art gallery. Re-releases Metroid Prime was rereleased in Japan in 2009 for the as part of the series. It has improved controls that use the 's pointing functionality. The credit system from Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is also included to unlock the original bonus content and the ability to take snapshots of gameplay. Internationally, the Wii version was released in, a single-disc compilation containing Prime, Echoes, and Corruption for Wii. On January 29, 2015, the compilation became available for from the 's.

Level/area: Phaaze - Genesis Chamber. Logbook - 'Leviathan Infant': Leviathans are the children of Phaaze. As time passes and the older ones are launched into space, the Leviathan will slowly make its way to the planet's surface. It is here the Leviathan will reach full maturity. Once Phaaze has located a planetary target to corrupt, it will launch the Leviathan into space. Instinctively, it homes in on its planetary target. Shortly after impact, the bioform dies, leaving its armored shell to protect the Phazon core.

Before it dies, the bioform often attracts and enthralls a large local predator. After mutating it through intense Phazon exposure, it compels the creature to protect the core. The core then begins to seep into the planet, replacing the local ecosystem with one based on Phazon. ^ (August 27, 2007). Level/area: GFS Valhalla - Stairwell. Logbook - 'Tallon IV Incident': Planet Tallon IV, formerly a Chozo colony, was struck by a stellar object 50 years ago.

The object was later determined to contain large quantities of Phazon. The Chozo were able to stave off the spread of Phazon, at the cost of many Chozo lives. The survivors abandoned the planet, fleeing to an unknown location. Decades later, Hunter Samus Aran responded to a distress call in the sector and discovered a Space Pirate Phazon mining station there. Aran eliminated both the pirate and Phazon threat from the planet, though not without cost. Retro Studios (November 17, 2002). Metroid Prime.

Though we perceived this from beyond space and time, it was but a curiosity: a brief flare in the universe. But the meteor brought with it corruption.

A Great Poison burst forth into the land, clawing at life with such violence that we were ripped from our peaceful state and find ourselves wandering as shadows of the mortal forms we left behind, searching for why we are here.

Chozo Lore - 'Worm': The prophecies tell of the coming of the Worm. Born from parasites, nurtured in a poisoned womb, the Worm grows, devouring from within, until the world begins to rot. The words of the seers have come to pass, for there, in the depths of the world, the ravenous Worm lurks and feeds. From the stars it came, blighting Tallon with its Great Poison.

We have begun to build a temple to contain this darkness: at its heart we will place a Cipher, a mystical lock powered by twelve Artifacts and filled with as much power as we Chozo can harness in our ethereal states.

This field bars access to a prime source of energy within a deep crater. Science Team believes the field is powered by a number of strange Chozo Artifacts. We have found some of these relics and studies on them have begun. As this field could hinder future energy production operations on Tallon IV, we must dismantle it as soon as possible.

Fearful of the potential within the Artifact Temple, the invaders known as Space Pirates tried to destroy it, only to fail in every attempt. We scattered the Artifacts across the planet for their protection, and only a few have fallen into invader hands. Failing to understand them, they now seek to unmake them. Again, they fail. They are right to fear these things.

Great power sleeps inside them. Prophecy calls for their union, come the day that the unholy Worm is met by the great Defender.

We can only hope the Artifacts are not destroyed by the invader, for then all will be lost. So, we do what we can to preserve the Artifacts, and to guide the Newborn to them.
