In the second half of the game (The Mothership/Chozodia), save stations also do the dual service of refilling your health and ammo. It is possible to be forced to reset and start from your last save right near the end of the game on Hard mode.Unfortunately, it's one of the items required to beat the game. Metroid Prime: In the original North American GameCube release, as well as the launch version of Remastered, there is a bug that was fixed in later releases wherein if you beat the Phazon Elite and are careless enough to leave the room without collecting the Artifact of Warrior that it drops upon defeat, it disappears and will never return.If this happens the only thing the player can do is try again from a previous save. The final SA-X battle can be made unwinnable by shooting it on a specific frame, making the boss completely invulnerable to damage.The unintentional part arises because Fusion, unlike other Metroid games, is programmed specifically to follow the story's events in order, and is very unreceptive to sequence breaks as a result. It makes the game unwinnable because the game breaks when bosses are defeated out of the scripted order - Nettori's Core-X will give you an error message saying Level 1 hatches are unlocked instead of the Plasma Beam, and Yakuza will be gone if you try to go and fight it afterwards. The TRO Trap is a very tricky Sequence Break that lets Samus fight Nettori (the root boss) before defeating Yakuza (the suplexing spider).Oh, was your last save at the save station right before the final boss? You mean the one that creates a Point of No Return? If you run out of missiles and the enemy doesn't produce drops (like two of the bosses and one of the mini-bosses), you can be locked in the room with a hostile giant with no way out except death or reset. For instance, bosses and some enemies can only be damaged by Charge Shots or missiles. It is possible to skip the Charge Beam, but virtually every room past the one where you would pick it up assumes you have it.Without the Hi-Jump Boots, there is no way out. But without the suit, she suffers twice the movement penalty, sinking down faster than she can jump up, effectively making it impossible for Samus to ever escape this watery grave. As long as she has the Gravity Suit (which should have been obtained by that point), she can nullify the underwater movement restriction and get out of the sand with a little bit of jumping.

Being in quicksand further reduces her mobility. However, being underwater reduces Samus' mobility (without the above Gravity Suit). The sand usually just pulls Samus down to the bottom of the pit the longer she goes without jumping- all the player needs to do is jump up the sand. A player needs to be careful when doing this, since there is a room or two with quicksand.

While the game tries very hard to prevent this with the appropriate obstacles, it is very possible to enter later rooms of the aquatic area Maridia with enough bomb-jumping and wall-jumping. A player who is very adept at maneuvering Samus before she gets her mobility upgrades (like the Gravity Suit) can find themselves stuck in certain spots with no way out.Without the Varia Suit note And, for some reason, this one check only looks for the Varia Suit, Mother Brain's unavoidable Hyper Beam attack inflicts a whopping 600 points damage, and if you don't have enough E-tanks to survive one Hyper Beam, the final plot event (where the baby Metroid rushes in to save Samus) never triggers.since you died before it could take place. The catch is that each Suit cuts damage by half (both suits = 1/4 damage). With a little bit of Sequence Breaking it is possible to acquire the Gravity Suit early, and ultimately reach Tourian without ever collecting the Varia suit.
