Precision Aiming

Precision Aiming is a technique in Metroid Prime: Federation Force. By holding down the right trigger on the Nintendo 3DS and tilting the handheld, the player can aim at targets or enemies more precisely. If locked-on, this will allow for more precise targeting of enemies like the Lock On/Free Aim option in the core Prime Series games. If a Circle Pad Pro is being used, the right analog control stick can be used to aim instead of tilting. This control scheme is similar to that of Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes on the Nintendo GameCube.
