The Missile Launcher's firepower seems to depend on the Missile upgrade Samus has collected.

Initially, and consistently , Samus's Missile Launcher fires a single Missile at a time to deliver concentrated, explosive damage in one area. Missiles seem to be able to break through many obstacles that Samus's [[Power Beam]] cannot. Missiles are known to be effective against [[Brinstone]], [[Radion]], [[Missile Door Lock]]s, [[Red Blast Shield]]s, [[Fuel Gel]], [[Phazon]] crates, flammable crates, and other substances. They can also break through hard-shelled enemies such as [[Brizgee]]. In all cases, there is at least one brief second where Samus cannot fire a consecutive Missile. The Missile Launcher's firepower can be altered through acquiring different upgrades, though acquiring any Missile upgrade does not alter the Missile Launcher's appearance in any way. | ||

The Missile Launcher appears in ''[[Metroid: Zero Mission]]'' exactly where it is found in the original ''Metroid''. It rests on parallel columns in a room in Brinstar. After turning around to exit the room she obtained the Missile Launcher from, [[Deorem]], the large, spiked, cycloptic worm creature will attack Samus.

The Missile Launcher functions identically to ''Metroid's'' Missile Launcher. In this game, however, Samus's Launcher can be upgraded with [[Super Missile]] firing capabilities. Upon defeating [[Kiru Giru]], a large flying insect, Samus can grab a [[Super Missile Expansion]] to upgrade the Missile Launcher with Super Missile firing capabilities. This green Super Missile is five times more powerful than the standard red Missile. | The Missile Launcher functions identically to ''Metroid's'' Missile Launcher.
