Ok, I bought a router today and have my Wii all setup. I've added everybody on this thread to my address book and I have 12 friend vouchers to send out so please add me and let me know if you sent me any so I can return the favor.

I think I've added everyone listed so far. I've sent out friend vouchers to everyone that is listed in black in Metroid. Thanks to those of you who've sent me vouchers in return. I've got about 8 more vouchers I can give out right now.

Just beat it. Pretty fun, but I don't see myself playing it again.

I know how SEND them, I was wondering how you EARN them in order to send them. I had earned 2 somehow. But wasn't paying attention as to how I got them.

Does anyone know if Nintendo will simplify the "Friends" process in the future? I would add more but it's a pain.

jiggawhat and cartman, you are black on my list. If I'm black on yours and you'd like to trade friend vouchers, let me know, i have 11 to trade.

I also sent one to Ghym even though he was grey on my metroid list though black on my wii address book (didn't know the game allowed you to do that)

You earn them though doing various things such as every 100 kills (up to 1000, I think), stylish kills, finding shortcuts or secret areas, etc.

I got it, thanks. You are showing black on my list now, so I sent you one too.

I'm almost at the end of the game. I'm trying to get the 100 pickups and I've got 98. I can't figure out where the last 2 are. I've looked over all the maps a numerous times, and I don't see anymore marked on there that I haven't picked up. I keep going back to planets looking, but I just can't figure out where the last 2 are. There isn't anything in the last area is there?

I'm about 5 hours into the game, and I guess I've gotten tokens, but I have no idea as to what sending and receiving them entails - or even how to add people - where is this Metroid friends list? Should I look in the instruction book?

Check the abandoned space station, items aren't marked in that level.

I put a little more time into the game yesterday and got frustrated by a boss. I'm playing on Veteran, and so far it hasn't been too challenging outside of two or three boss battles. Spoiler for a boss battle that happens in the Seed on a planet with the initials P.H. (trying to keep it vague for those early in the game):
Spoiler:
Omega Ridley is a bitch. I fought him three times. The first time I was getting my bearings and learning the strategy. The second time I got him down to about 1/3 of his energy. On my third try I got him down to just a sliver when he finished me with one of his stupid bombing runs. I was too frustrated to try again, but I'll probably give it another shot tonight or tomorrow. I know the patterns and the steps I need to take - I think it's just a matter of making efficient use of my Phazon energy each time I go into Hypermode.

I've been taking my time playing through the game, but I think I'd like to try and wrap it up soon due to the number of games on my plate right now.

slop, anybody on your Wii address book should show up in your metroid friends list. To get to the friends list, click on your saved game file in the game, then click on 'Extras', then 'Friend Vouchers'. That'll bring up your friends, the ones in black are ones you can exchange vouchers with although you can apparently send vouchers to those who are grey as well. You need to make sure the Wii connect 24 is 'on' within the metroid game as well (this is the option below 'Friend Vouchers'). I'll be happy to send vouchers to you if you send me some

Ok, how do I get past that big globular mass with pink crystals sticking out of it that's blocking the Green (Nova beam) shield door in the room where you take down the Defense Network on the Pirate Homeworld. Scanning it says that a large amt of phazon should work but I've tried everything...charged phazon blast, phazon missile, phazon energy in morphball mode...nothing seems to dent it. Do you have to destroy the seed on the planet beforehand?

Man, I'm already over my 1000 kills and I need some friend vouchers to give back. Josh Hinkle just sent me a credit and I don't have any vouchers to return. What's the next easiest way to earn vouchers?

This morning, I beat the boss I mentioned in my last post, and I think it has renewed my interest in the game. I have a few other games I'm in the middle of right now but I have a feeling I'll be focusing on MP3 until I finish it.
