Metroid Prime (GC)

Metroid Prime is an action-packed adventure set in the first-person perspective that takes place just after the events in the original Metroid (NES). It has lead character Samus Aran, a bounty hunter by trade, chasing down the evil Space Pirates. Their intention is to use a genetic mutagen called Phazon to create a super army and take over the universe. While the installments in the series before have never been home to deeply involving storylines, Metroid Prime breaks the shell to offer up one of the most intriguing and read-worthy sagas yet. Developed by Texas-based Retro Studios. Metroid Prime brings all of the elements of the acclaimed franchise into a gaping 3D arena.

An updated version exists for the Wii as part of the Metroid Prime: Trilogy; which also contains the sequels Metroid Prime 2: Echoes and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption.

Audio Issues
Several sound effects don´t play appropriately, and sometimes music stops playing. DSP LLE fixes the sound effect problems, but unfortunately BGM may still stop; and once it stops it requires a full emulation reset to recover. This issue also appears to cause studdering when using LLE. See and.

Savestates
Savestates may randomly fail, especially if alot of activity is going on screen when making the save. Use in game save stations to avoid any issues.

Broken x-ray/thermal visor
The Xray and Thermal visors will not work with EFB to Texture. Use EFB to Ram to fix it.

Ghosting Effect with Phazon Suit
Not fixed yet

Alcove Room
Sky becomes black when the room "Alcove" is opened, where Space-Jump-Boots are located. The normal sky appears when the room is closed. This appears to be fixed.

Crashing
Random crashes may occur on older revisions. Current revisions appear to be mostly stable however. If in doubt, save often.
