In Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, players control Samus by moving with the Nunchuk controller and aiming with the pointer, allowing for a level of immersion unlike anything they have ever experienced. Through the eyes of Samus, players experience a quantum leap in first-person control as they wield the Wii Remote, the ultimate device for the first-person shooter genre.
Samus will employ well-known power-ups like the Grapple Beam and Morph Ball, as well as a bunch of new surprises, to help her survive her coming trials.

Secret Message from Iwata. When in Samus' ship, go to the radio and press the following symbols. Going from left to right, press the second symbol, the seventh symbol, the fifth symbol and then the first symbol. You'll be greeted by Iwata himself. Of course, this is in Japanese.
A brief translation... Hello, this is Iwata from Nintendo. A president has to take things really seriously, even if it doesn't seem like it. It's understandable if you lose weight from stress...but I get fatter instead. Nobody thinks I'm taking it seriously.
Secret Message from Kenji Yamoto When in Samus' ship, go to the radio and press the following symbols: Going from left to right, press the third symbol, the sixth symbol, the fourth symbol and then the eighth symbol. You will then hear a message from Mr. Yamoto!
Secret Message from Miyamoto When in Samus' ship, go to the radio and press the following symbols: Going from left to right, press the eighth symbol, the third symbol, the fifth symbol and then the fourth symbol. You will then hear a message from Mr. Miyamoto!
A rough translation: Ah, can you hear me? This is Miyamoto. All of you playing Metroid, can you hear me? It's fun, isn't it? I've also worked on many [Metroid] games, but this one is the best yet, don't you think? Definitely play it all the way to the end. See you!
Secrets
Reveal all item locations Go to the place in Skytown when you have to get the first part of the bomb you have to make using your ship. Near the bottom there is some Phazite, shoot the switch inside to activate the satelite system. Go to the top and go around the walls using the spiderball tracks and bomb all the bomb slots to get markers on your map for where every expansion (missle,ship missle,and E tanks) is in every part of the game, except the items that are in the Valhalla.
Here's the secret message from Iwata (in Japanese of course):
I found another easter egg at the beginning of the game when it gives you life support status and gives you a corruption glitch there is a hidden message that says "format Wii system memory H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H (y/n)?". we found this when the game froze at this part.
On Bryyo, in the first section (cliffside airdock), you can get a glimpse of the corrupted Rundus long before you actually fight him. After downloading the map from the downed Federation Vessel, the door to go back to the cliff will unlock, saving you from going back through the morph ball maze (even though going back through it can get you a missile expansion). Anyway, shoot the door, like you would any other, and get close enough for it to open, so you can see the next area, but DON'T go through yet. Maneuver around so that you can see the left side of the cliff across the crevice, and high on the rock will be a ledge. A figure will be standing on it. Walk through the door, wait a few moments, and the figure will create a bridge-thing of ice and fly away. Who does that sound like? Rundus is watching you... (Note: while he does appear as scan-able at this point, he will be too far away. Thus, you'll get the normal "out-of-range" message.)

Theres also a referance to warhammer 40,000 in the first mission (I think), When someone says "this is the biggest scrambling of fighters since the Horus rebbelion" It sounds like the Horus heresy.
