List of transmissions in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption

This is a list of transmissions received by Samus Aran in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. While most of her transmissions come from Aurora Unit 242, she also receives them from Rundas, Fleet Admiral Castor Dane, the Chozo biotech computer, Aurora Unit 217 and NZG41 at times.

Samus will receive a transmission when she reaches a certain point in the story, and they sometimes offer gameplay hints. The text will automatically appear on screen. Transmission paragraphs can be skipped by pressing the 1 button on the Wii Remote.

Aurora Chamber (SkyTown)
Heard if Samus idles in front of the Kinetic Lock in the Aurora Chamber for a short time.

Bryyo Ice
While Samus is exploring Bryyo Ice for the first time, she receives two garbled transmissions of unknown origin. The file name of this transmission is "AUScrambledIFT", confirming the scrambled transmission came from 242.

The scrambled transmission can be heard here:

Gel Refinery Site
Heard when Samus returns to this room after leaving Bryyo Ice. 242 saying that she has been trying to reach Samus seemingly confirms it was her who sent the inaudible transmissions.

Unused
There is at least one unused transmission from 242. She explains to Samus a horrifying discovery: the Phazon inside her body is linked to Dark Samus, and slowly attempting to take control of her. The only way to stop this would be to destroy Dark Samus, otherwise "you will become... her." This would have been a hint toward what would happen if Samus died of Terminal Corruption.



Chozo biotech computer
Heard when Samus reaches the Arrival Station (loud explosions can be heard):

Heard when Samus gets closer to the Main Docking Bay:

Heard when Samus returns to the Spire Dock after killing Ghor:

SkyTown Federation Landing Site
Heard when Samus enters the Landing Site and approaches the Chozebo.

NZG41
Heard when Samus enters the Security Air Lock from the other side.
