Morph Ball
Allows Samus to curl into a small ball, enabling her to access narrow passages and drop bombs. Acquired at the start of the game.
Bombs
Dropped in Morph Ball form, these explosives can destroy Bomb Blocks and damage enemies. Essential for finding hidden passages.
Spider Ball
Allows Samus, in Morph Ball form, to cling to and roll along walls and ceilings. Crucial for vertical exploration and reaching new areas.
Spring Ball
Allows Samus to jump while in Morph Ball form. Enhances Morph Ball mobility and opens up more hidden paths.
High Jump Boots
Increases Samus's jump height, making it easier to reach higher platforms and clear obstacles.
Space Jump
Grants Samus the ability to jump infinitely in mid-air, allowing for unparalleled vertical mobility. Essential for navigating vast shafts and reaching the highest points of SR388.
Varia Suit
Reduces damage taken from enemies and environmental hazards (like lava). A vital defensive upgrade for later areas.
Gravity Suit
Further reduces damage and allows Samus to move freely in liquid environments (like lava and water) without impediment. The ultimate defensive and mobility upgrade.
