===One Bomb In Air Rule=== | ===One Bomb In Air Rule=== | ||
Starting from the Wii version of [[Metroid Prime]] and onwards, an additional rule was added that Samus cannot hit more than 1 bomb in the air a time. This was likely to prevent the player from doing mid-air Bomb Jumps using [[Spring Ball]]. One quirk of this is that some rooms such as [[Hydro Access Tunnel]] and [[Waste Disposal]] turn off this rule to allow the player to progress normally through underwater [[Morph Ball]] tunnels. | Starting from the Wii version of [[Metroid Prime]] and onwards, an additional rule was added that Samus cannot hit more than 1 bomb in the air a time.

=== Unmorphing out of Bomb Jumps === | |||
By unmorphing out of a bomb jump at the end, Samus will continue to cary her speed and can use this to get extra height or distance from a bomb jump. Unmorphing too soon out of a bomb jump will cause Samus to lose speed and fall rapidly. Having [[Space Jump Boots]] increases Samus' vertical speed-cap which lets her unmorph higher as well. As a result some Bomb Jumps are only possible with [[Space Jump Boots]]. | |||
