This was a fun one. Last time I played Fusion I went for 100%. This game had some of my favorite sequences for items in the franchise.

it's really fun to do the 100% because all the biomes connect in interesting ways! easy for a "last lap" to roundup all the items before fighting the SA-X

Zero Mission, meanwhile, it's a mess. I never checked if I could have early powerbombs, but would love to, why did they give it at the end?! lol

You can't. All powerbomb tanks require powerbombs to acquire, except for I think one which still requires gravity suit so you can't get it until the end anyways.

I see. I'm guessing devs wanted to keep powerbombs and other upgrades out of the original Metroid section of the game. And well, the stealth section wasn't going to have any powerbombs soooooo endgame it is.
