I borrowed Super metroid from my friend a couple weeks ago, but I finally got down to playing it this weekend.

Im currently in Maridia, after finishing the haunted ship. I only have 4 energy tanks, and 2 of the reserve tanks (what do they do anyway?).

This game is awsome, and I'm no longer suprised by all the praise the game has gotten in the years.

Heh...I just got it of the Virtual Console a couple months ago...

As far as I know, the reserve tanks are there for either when you want to manually restore energy, as well as if you run out of energy. When you feel that you are low on energy, and you need it now, you can manually activate a reserve tank to heal you by 100 energy. Or you can put the tanks on auto, at which point they will activate upon you reaching zero energy. The manual is nice, but I leave it on auto all the time because that way you have a backup if you die.

Yeah, I hate Maridia. Not the actual atmosphere, I love that, but all the dead ends and one way passages really get on my nerves. Draygon was awesome, though.

How do you use it manually or set it to automatic?

And I already get the feeling that Maridia is gonna suck lol.

Open the menu, hit R, and select the Reserve Tank box and hit A to swap from auto to manual. >_>

And yeah, Maridia kills the game for me, but it's pretty damn good otherwise.

<shrinkshooter> it doesn't matter if you try to play the game legit, Daz, it breaks as soon as you turn it on. You start a new game, Samus lands her ship, and then BAM you're hovering outside of the map above the metroid prime room with all weapons and gear and somehow also a goddamn squirtgun.

You guys just don't know what's good. Only time Maridia kills the game for me is during a suitless run...

Oh, well, Daz already had you covered, Red. Yeah, that's how you do it.

@072, I like Maridia, it's an awesome atmosphere, and is excellently well done, but I'm not a fan of all the one way passages.

I LOVE Maridia. Especially the music (the melodic music, not the "babonggg"), which Daz hates.

I love maridia.
One of the best bits of the game, for me.

I hated Maridia the first time around, but I've loved it ever since... *shrug*
I love the music, too.

So I was enjoying maridia, and then I got a powerup, got exited, stomped my foot on the ground...and the game froze.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

I hadn't saved in ages, and I had gotten so far. >_>

BTW is that weird word dragon thing Draygon?

Nah, if you're talking about the red snake guy, that's Botwoon. Draygon looks nothing like a dragon.

Draygon's more of a giant crayfish with an extra trout face coming out of his forehead.

Seriously. >_>
