How To Change Metroid Prime 4's Morph Ball Jump Button

"Look, I understand that this isn't new to Prime 4. It was like this in Metroid Prime Remastered, too, and the Wii version of Prime 2. So for some folks, this might be second nature and not weird at all. But I haven't played much Metroid Prime beyond the remaster of the first game, so when I discovered that jumping in Morph Ball mode used the X button instead of B, which is how you jump when controlling Samus on foot, I was perturbed."

"Pause the game and open up the settings menu. Scroll down to the control scheme subsection and hit A. Now hit ZR to bring up the Morph Ball controls. Select "Spring Ball" and hit A. Now highlight the B button slot and confirm the swap. If your B button slot contains question marks (???) you need to do another step The game will ask you if you want to go into advanced mode. Hit Ok. Now you can swap the ??? (which is later revealed to be the Spin Ball ability) and fix this silly control choice."

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond assigns the Morph Ball jump to the X button by default, differing from the on-foot B jump. The game allows full control customization, but the Morph Ball jump mapping is buried in nested menus and requires entering an advanced mode if the B slot shows question marks. Steps include opening settings, accessing the control scheme, selecting Morph Ball controls, choosing Spring Ball, and swapping the B slot with the Spin Ball ability. The remap applies on both Switch and Switch 2 and makes Morph Ball jumping feel more consistent and enjoyable.
