Why was it categorized under beams? Did the person incorrectly link to a category? MarioGalaxy2433g5 {talk/contribs/Logs} 22:35, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Sorry. I was trying to have a category for every section, but it looks like it doesn't work very well. No problem, though. I fixed it. Armantula513 19:34, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] "Fusion Suit Mechanics"

Should I go ahead and create a "Fusion Suit Mechanics" page? The technology for that suit is REALLY different, and I think I could do a number on the movement and arm cannon sections for that possible page. Any thoughts? (And how do you feel about this page's information? I could use some feedback, since barely anybody else has bothered to alter information on this page.) Armantula513 06:02, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Thats because it is so complete that there isn't that much to do on it. I would have no objection to a fusion suit mechanics page, but The Admins are the ones who get the last word about it in. Metroidhunter32 16:29, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

If you can populate the page, create it by all means. Nice work on this page too! --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (TalkContribsLogs) 04:18, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Gee, thanks! I guess I'll get to work on it. It might pop up out of nowhere within the next few days, to a week at most. Armantula513 05:15, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Well, actually, it might be a little bit harder than I first thought. The information available on the fusion suit hardware is NEXT TO NOTHING. If I knew Japanese, I could translate some notes that appear in the Fusion Suit artwork in Metroid Prime, but unfortunately.... It would also help a lot if that artwork was on the internet too. I can't seem to find it anywhere. Armantula513 05:59, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

NOES!! TEH INTARWEBZ ARE FAILING US!!11!  :P --FastLizard4{ADMIN} (TalkContribsLogs) 06:13, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Well hold your misery & internet lingo for another time. (As you have definitely already noticed, User:FastLizard4) The Fusion Suit Mechanics page is up! I could do a lot more of what I wanted on that page (To go in-depth about the design) and I'm very pleased with it. But I used a lot of really large words on that page, and I'm worried that some layman might just come in & be like, "........uhh, what does this all mean...??" Give me the word if it seems a little too complex or non-understandable, anybody. Armantula513 03:04, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for creating this page and the fusion suit mechanics page i consider two of the greatest pages here.Snore 02:36, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Shields

Do you guys think it is possible that the suit has some form of shielding? This shielding could be what protects Samus while also explaining why walking into harmless-looking organisms can drain energy due to the shields reacting to them. Could be what the energy cells power. Dark Ridley 02:08, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Energy Manipulation

I've been thinking recently about the actual mechanics and inner workings of the Power Suit, and I've come to the conclusion that the manipulation of energy is a VERY important utility for the power Suit to function properly. The manipulation of some form of energy is an important part of ANY aspect of the Suit's operation (at least with the prime trilogy). When Samus fires a missile, the missile which is stored in a energy state condenses in the arm cannon and fires. When Samus transforms into the morph ball, her organic being and presumably a portion of the Suit itself are converted into a raw energy state and stored in the hollow center of the morph ball. When Samus absorbs a pickup, the pickup touches the energy screen and is instantly converted into an energy state to be moved to another part of the Suit, where it is converted into a new piece of hardware. The Suit IS energy. The Suit IS power. What the Suit lacks is a way to create its own pickups. It needs the outside energy to process, distribute and convert for new hardware and new abilities. The Suit has its own kind of intelligence, able to absorb, and process pickups of foreign origin, not created by the Chozo. The Suit is raw power and can process that power to an incredible scale of subtlety and precision or to a devastating extent of destruction and, well, power.

What I've been practically ranting about is a proposition to create a section on the Power Suit Mechanics page about the importance of energy manipulation and processing to the Suit. Is it too speculative?

[edit] Varia suit functions?

I think that the varia and gravity suit mechanics need to be added to the page, though it is hard to find info. Do you think it's possible?
