Superbomb opens doors
Submitted by: Thor
Exciting-ness scale: 2? out of 10
Does it work? --> Unconfirmed. We'll check soon.

Do the reset glitch and reset your game (after saving). Once you restart your game, you'll start from the beginning of the game with all your items. If you bomb any door in any of the rooms, it will just disappear and you can walk through it. If you do it in the first room, it'll give off that weird door that you see during the rocking sequence in the same room.

What an exciting explosion.
Thanks to Thor for this screenshot!

Do the reset glitch and reset your game (after saving). Once you restart your game, you'll start from the beginning of the game with all your items. Once you get into the battle with Ridley, use an X-ray. You will see some weird tiles in the background. If you do it before the battle starts, you can see Ridley with a black overlay. If you do it after you beat Ridley and you see him flying across the screen, the tiles will disappear and the sequence will continue even though the X-ray should stop the game. If after the flying away sequence, you hold down the X-ray button and press left or right, you'll turn into a morphball with the X-ray on. When the words turn up, X-ray them and they will disappear.

During the Ridley battle, if you use the Superbomb open doors glitch and escape, the battle music will continue. When you re-enter the door, the battle will restart.

Go into the big room which basically connects to the morphball, missles, and bombs. Now go all the way to the bottom of this vertically scrolling room and go to the right door. Jump onto the top level, and turn into a morphball. Start to go across. If you fall through the blocks, go through the door and try again, whether you fall through or not seems random. If you do manage to make it across this, you'll see a single solid block with a pillar closing on it. Stop the morphball at the left edge. Now wait a few seconds, and go right again over this short series of falling blocks. If you make it past the easiest 2nd pillar, you can just fall through. You now have access to a Super Missle, a Reserve Tank, and 2 Missles.
