Power Bomb: Difference between revisions

The Power Bomb reappears in ''[[Metroid: Other M]]''. It is tested by [[Samus Aran|Samus]] along with her other weapons very early in the game. However, once entering the [[Bottle Ship]], [[Adam Malkovich]] lets Samus know that he has no intention of authorizing the use of Power Bombs because their blast radius is extensive, and they are powerful enough to incinerate organic matter.<ref>{{cite|As you know, they have the ability to spread a high-temperature heat wave over a large area, impacting living things, which is a nice way of saying they can vaporize humans instantly.|Adam Malkovich|Metroid: Other M}}</ref> This appearance is the only appearance where the Power Bomb does not require ammunition of any sort. She must charge a regular Bomb while in Morph Ball mode then release while the charge gauge is full. The time it takes to charge can be lessened through the acquisition of [[Accel Charge]]s. However, Samus must wait to use a successive Power Bomb. She does not use Power Bombs until one of her final battles, the [[Queen Metroid]] battle (curiously, she is not notified that she is able to use Power Bombs in this situation). After that battle and the confrontation with [[MB]], Samus is free to use the Power Bomb.
