If you ever get trapped, or want a password, pause the game, then
press Up and A on Controller 2, to go to the Password Screen.
Fighting Mother Brain
Sent in by Steve Rauch
When fighting Mother Brain make sure that you have the Ice Beam
and not the Wave Beam. If you fall into the lava pit right next to
Mother Brain, you will need to freeze those little circular enemies
in order to get back up to the ledge and kill her.
Fighting Ridley
Sent in by Steve Rauch
When fighting Ridley, stand on the ledge to his right so that you can
just shoot over the block and continue pelting him with missiles. If
you do it right he will not be able to hit you.
Wall jump
Sent in by Sean Kelly
To do the wall jump, open a door then do into it just a little bit and
let it close on you. Then just keep on jumping and press Down once
and a while to turn into a ball than you instantly jump out. You will
slowly scale up the wall. Beware if you are not careful you will get stuck.
Mid air jump
Sent in by Troy Loeffler
The mid air jump, you need to.
1: Roll into a ball.
2: Go a platform
3: Hit the up button.
4: Hit the jump button.
You can only do one jump at a time.
Hidden world
1. From the entrance to Ridley's Hide-out, drop down to the bottom of
the shaft and go left to the room with the Energy Tank in it, (by the
invisible pit).
2. Shoot the door to the left of the Energy Tank and stand inside of
the door so it closes on you.
3. Press Up and Down quickly, and you will see Samus begin to move up
to the top of the screen.
WARNING!! IF YOU DO IT TOO SLOW YOU WILL GET STUCK IN A BALL. THE ONLY
WAY OUT WOULD BE TO USE THE QUICK-END CODE OR PRESS RESET.
4. Once Samus is near the top of the screen, press A repeatedly until
the screen stops scrolling.
5. Again, press Up and Down until Samus moves up about 6 more blocks
on the screen.
6. Again, once Samus is near the top of the screen, press A repeatedly
until the screen stops scrolling.
7. Keep repeating Steps 5 and 6 until you get to the third blue door
on the left.
8. Enter the door to the Hidden World.
So far I have not found any thing there. If you go in other doors you
will either die or the game will pause forever. So far I have found
only a few rooms there, so this may only be good for exploring the
area, also you might want to have quite a bit of energy when you get
there (200hp). There might be another Ridley in there.

Samus_ beats_
Mother brain_
(_ is a space)
You are at Tourian with the Screw Attack, 255/220 missiles, 5
energy tanks and more. One down side is that you don't have bombs.
If you beat the game with this code without continuing, you will
find that Mother Brain isn't even there!! Instead, you'll hear the
sound of a door opening when you get to where she should be,
and you will see the regular warning message, but it will stay on the
screen, and there will be no timer!
