Subject: Re: Email :) From: Anomaly J Anomolis OK. here goes. I haven't explored this area completely, cause its huge!! I'll tell you what it does in a little bit. First off, you gotta have the Screw Attack, and be in the long shaft which leads to the first alpha Metroid's chamber. First, fall down, and kill off all the enemies. They might interfere. Next, Screw attack up to the top. When you get there, let yourself fall without touching any ledges, and while doing the select trick. If it works. The liquid pool will have an empty space below it. Fall through. You should find yourself in a an area similar to that which you find when you go into the original secret world in the Queen Metroid area. Walk all the way to the right, until the screen changes. You'll pass through a wall, and vloila! yer there. You'll notice pieces of save points there. You can save on the top pieces, even though the text is garbled (and don't worry, there is a way out) If you fall down to the floor of the secret world, you'll come across a hole. use the spider ball to crawl down the left wall of the hole. Follow it down all the way. You'll see and odd looking egg... When you get close, you discover, that its a glitched baby Metroid!! If you were to conitnue into the queen's passage, the glitch would fix itself, and you'd be at the end of the game. Only problem is, you'd discover that the ship won't take off when you get to it, so the game won't end. This also brings up an interesting little fact. you know the sound you hear when you enter your ship, and before the screen fades to black. The sound that happens when you touch the strange icon? Well, guess what it is? A missile recharger. The programmers, probably had it placed centered in the ship, so the game was programmed to, after the queen was killed, fade to black and end the game when Samus found a missile recharge. Anyway, you might want to reset (assuming that you saved in the main room of the world.) I'll put one more secret in this email. This one is a Super HUGE shortcut!! If you're gonna sue this one, please make sure that you have already destroyed all the Metroids. This is an easy way to get back to the end of the game. Fall into the same shaft that you did. Only this time, don't go into ball form. Instead, fall off edge ledge, pushing hard against the left wall. at one point, this will cause you to fall through the floor. When you hit the ground again. There should be a raised part of the in front of you. Jump on it, and you should fall through again. When you hit ground this time, go to the far right wall. You should fall two screens. When you fall into the first one, move yourself to the right, so when you fall into the second screen, you'll be standing on some pieces of a Metroid shell. There should be a holein the center. move to the left side of the hole, and fall in through the left side. You should fall through one of the walls no the Queen Metroid area!! And you're out!! I'll send more tricks as i find them. Hope you can find it. also, pictures would probably assist your reader as how to do this. Its very complex, but worth it!! I haven't even fully exlplored all the mysteries of the world yet, and i found it over two months ago!! -The Anomaly members.tripod.com/TheAnomaly
