Metroid Prime Hunters is a first-person shooter and adventure game created exclusively for the Nintendo DS developed by NST (Nintendo Software Technology), a first-party developer for Nintendo, based in Redmond in North America, and released in 2006. Like its predecessor Metroid Prime, Nintendo has dubbed it a first-person adventure rather than a first-person shooter due to the large amount of exploration element in the game, classic to any Nintendo game.
The rather unusual focus on exploration and discovery has made Nintendo create a sub-genre in the First Person Shooter class, calling the Metroid Prime games first person adventure titles. The game features the same main character, the beautiful Samus Aran, who, sadly, is under her heavy armor throughout the game. This armor, coupled with the unique weapons, allows Samus to transform into her trademark Morph Ball state, which allows her to rapidly take out many enemies in short time.
The game was well received, and has enjoyed quite a lot of popularity with fans, largely due to the fact that the multiplayer mode, which harnessed the Wi-Fi capabilities of the Nintendo DS, was extremely well built and had a lot of various options, including the one enabling voice chat, through the built-in microphone. Here are a couple of things that might help in the adventures of Samus versus the Metroids.
HINTS
Triple Jump Metroid style
Turn into a Morphball and do not move. Then, throw a bomb and just before it detonates, throw another one. When it explodes, you will go into the air. While in the air, throw another bomb. When you fall down, do not move. The second bomb will detonate, and you will fly into the air again but this time, the third bomb will detonate and you will fly even higher. When the third bomb detonates, wait one second, then turn into Retro mode and you should go higher. If you jump when you turn into Retro mode, you can go higher.
Always have ammunition
If you use up all of your ammunition (Power Beam shots), you will get one more shot. However, you will shoot half as fast.
