Long Beam

From Metroid Wiki
Revision as of 03:19, 12 March 2013 by Jyavoc (talk | contribs) (Article makes no mention of Super Metroid, where Samus starts out with Long Beam. Clearly missing vital information; marking as stub.)

The Long Beam is an upgrade for the side-scrolling Metroid and Metroid: Zero Mission. The upgrade grants Samus the ability to shoot beams farther than the default distance and cause slightly more damage. It is the first beam upgrade obtained in both games. The Long Beam is obtained in Brinstar with no preceding boss battle. Its effect is carried through each beam following the Power Beam. This upgrade is generally low in potential, considering that it can be skipped in Zero Mission and Metroid.
