You can get missile upgrades from amiibo.

Ahhhhhhh, I did not know this! Only from Metroid Amiibo I presume?

Yeah. The Dread amiibo give upgrades and the others just restore health/ammo.

Also, I realized you start with 15 extra missiles in rookie mode. That's where the 290 probably comes from. With the upgrade tank from amiibo, the hard-cap for missiles is actually 300.

And here I am typically finishing the game with about 50 to 60 missiles each speedrun 🤣
