Charge Combo
Charge Combos are optional items that essentially combine the Charge Shot and Missile Shot. They are found in Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, however none of them are required outside of the Super Missile. The Charge Combo works by fully charging the corresponding beam weapon and then releasing the charge which will fire a Missile. Two types of Charge Combo's exist: Single and Continuous. The difference in the types of Charge's is that the single simply fires a small cluster of missiles while the continuous is a constant stream. Charge Combo's presently only exist in two games: Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes.

Super Missile | Power Beam | 5 |
