Here is my 100% Walkthrough for Metroid: Samus Returns for the Nintendo 3DS. I will be going through this on Hard Mode, and will also try to completely fill up the map, so this won’t be a speed run, and you will see me run back to fill in some square at times.

I go through Area 5, previously known as The Tower. This is probably my favorite area, not only due to how it has a remix of the Brinstar Red Soil theme from Super Metroid, but also due to you getting the best weapons in the game. However, The Tower itself is a bit of a maze, with locked doors and walls blocking you from easily accessing the main items. However, once you get them, enemies that gave you trouble before will be far easier to take down.

I tried to get all the expansions as I could, but I unfortunately miss one after taking out the fifth Metroid, so I will add that to my cleanup of this area.
