Spider Ball

The Spider Ball is an augmentation of the morph ball. It is acquired in Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 2:Echoes by defeating a boss. The spider ball lets Samus ride along amgnetic rails that are dotted around the areas she goes around. This is usually used to get to hidden areas with an expansion pack of missles or something else. The Spider Ball is activated by pressing the 'L' button on the Gamecube Controller and holding it down. When ever Smaus encounteres a magnetic rail in the morph ball, she can use the Spider Ball to reach new areas unreachable before.
