Following the events of ''Metroid Prime 3'', the eradication of Phazon has completely removed any attempt to harness its power for both the Galactic Federation and Space Pirates alike. To remedy this issue, the federation puts its soldiers in training using special mechs based on Samus's Power Suit technology to combat new threats.

* SuperDeformed: The proportions of the Marines and other assorted characters have been scaled down here, giving ''Federation Force'' a more cutesy look and feel compared to the rest of the series.

It helps that rather than simply controlling a human soldier, you're piloting a mecha suit, which wouldn't necessarily have human proportions.
