Having a lot of fun with this, but it just randomly locks up (a lot) on my FX Pak Pro. Not sure why, but kinda disappointing to have to put it down.

TROM

sorry for that don't know what to say....I play on reel snes with the Powerpak and have no problem...

junkrares

I was able to rectify it by turning off in-game hooks. Kind of abnormal, but hey, it works!

Sickwood

Having no problems on Fx Pak Pro and having a blast.  Really excited for the return of the great TROM.

Can you spoil where the "first" Super Missile is? I've seen a dozen or so, but they're always locked behind a super block. I've beat Kraid and Phantoon, I have the following gear:

66 Missiles
12 Power Bombs
X-Ray
Grapple
Varia
Charge
Spazer
Morph
Bomb
Spring Ball
Speed Booster

I seem to be locked from progressing without either the Gravity suit for underwater shine sparks or without Supers for green doors.

TROM

check in Aquaria, a passage you can go with booster and aqua suit... But be patient.

Ok, so then I guess ... where is the aqua suit? XD

EDIT: Nevermind. I found my first Super by blue-suiting down to Crocomire, then unlocking the event door, helldiving into the lava, and it was in a room with three giant Dessgeegas east of the maze that leads to Screw Attack. I am guessing that was *not* the intended path.

I've been through every area and obviously am missing something. Ridley is event-locked, the Torizo won't lower the lava. My only ways forward in Aquaria require speed booster. There's nothing left in Metallia, and the only room I haven't been in in Amazonia seems to require plasma to get a space pirate off a grapple block. I've got every major upgrade except Plasma and Gravity.

I'm stumped.

To the left of the landing site there's a PB door that leads to a water area. There's a subtle secret passage down through a floor before you go through a long Maridia-like tube that leads to an elevator. I had to gate glitch through a blue gate, but if you have wave you just go through it and the Aqua suit is in the next room. This is all off of memory while waiting for a haircut.

The PB door to the left of the landing site leads to a pseudo-gauntlet kind of room with lava and immobile goo balls. At the end there's a big room with two items -- a missile tank and an e-tank (I think).

I don't know if this is what you're thinking of, but there's also the big open area with a water section and sky section that has plasma pirates in tubes and a room underwater I can't get to because the door(s) are grey, likely until you're able to kill all three plasma pirates.

I'm very lost, so if you can show me a pic/screenshot of your map later, I'd appreciate it. My IGT is over 5 hours at this point because I've just been circling blindly.

Ok. Solaria. Go to left of landing site where you have to freeze the rippers to be able to go up (They move too fast to WJ through). Go left and down toward where the map is showing the "Amazonia" down arrow elevator. There's a big room just right of that elevator. It has a bunch of clear glass morph tubes and before you leave the room to the left, theres a pillar platform with PB tiles. Blow it up and go down and left and it's there.

I never could figure out how to attach pics to the forum, so if you still can't figure it out. DM me on discord and I can attach a pic there, but this should be enough.

OMG thank you, I forgot about that room because it doesn't show anything else on the map other than the item you collected until you go past that gate. I really think that locking a major powerup in an area that isn't revealed by the map station is kind of a dick move. But thank you for your help. Now I can finally finish this!

I can't even find morph ball. I've backtracked and restarted a couple of times. Was it meant to be found later in the game?

Exister

Morph is found way after PBs. You should be able to progress to the right with missiles
