The Nova Beam is an upgrade to the [[Arm Cannon]] that discharges emerald-green bursts of {{wp|high frequency}} energy.  
The Nova Beam is an upgrade to the [[Arm Cannon]] that discharges emerald-green bursts of {{wp|high frequency}} energy.  
It shoots a high-frequency beam that can pass through certain surfaces (acting much like the Wave Beam), namely those made of [[Phazite]]; this may allow [[Samus Aran|Samus]] to directly target an enemy's vulnerable internal organs when used in conjunction with the [[X-Ray Visor]]. It is slightly more powerful than the Plasma Beam.

The Nova Beam retains all of the properties of Samus's previous beam weapons, namely the [[Power Beam]]'s ability to shoot rapidly and the [[Plasma Beam (Metroid Prime series)|Plasma Beam]]'s ability to weld unstable or damaged machinery and melt obstacles of metal.
