VI. X-Ray Scope Glitches (Future Section)
So far, the X-Ray scope can be used to travel in out of room areas
in the game into Secret Worlds. It is not known, however, how this
will affect the item tree as of yet. Further testing and glitching
is needed
5. Non-Twinked Item Tree (No Sequence Breaking or Glitches)
Getting these items in the order listed below qualifies as a
non-twinked Super Metroid Run. This also assumes that you cannot
do any sequence breaking at all, (i.e. wall jumping, bomb jumping,
glitches, etc...) Non-twinked means basically what you think it means
like in Diablo 2: Do everything in order and don't skip ahead.
Morph Ball
Missile
Bombs
Energy Tank
Super Missile
High Jump Boots
*Spazer Beam
Varia Suit
Speed Booster
Ice Beam
**Power Bomb
Grapple Beam
Wave Beam
Gravity Suit
%Reserve Tank
Space Jump
Spring Ball (interchangeable with Plasma Beam)
Plasma Beam (interchangeable with Spring Ball)
Screw Attack
* The Spazer Beam can be gotten anytime after you get the high jump
boots, although in my very first time playing Super Metroid, I got
it after completing the Upper Norfair run of items.
** The Power Bombs are very arbitrary. Some people have gotten the
ones after defeating Crocomire using a super-high jump or shinespark.
In my first run of Super Metroid, I went back up to the Brinstar shaft
and got them up there after I had the ice beam, and then headed back
to Norfair.
% Reserve Tanks are also arbitrary, it is possible to get one as soon
as you get the speed booster normally. You would get this one in
Brinstar where the mockball glitch is performed. On my first run of
Super Metroid, I got the first Reserve Tank after the Gravity Suit
in the Wrecked Ship.
