A month has passed since the Nintendo Media Summit and American gaming magazine, Play Magazine, has announced new details on Metroid Prime 3: Corruption!

- Exploration of an alien civilization has gotten larger (hopefully alive this time around)
- Switching visors requires the ‘minus’ and the flick of the Wiimote
- Beam stacking is back! Believed to be originally from Super Metroid.
