Metroid Prime 3 Tips from Nintendo

My poor carrier pigeon arrived absolutely exhausted from his long trip overseas to bring me a missive from Nintendo. What could it be, I wondered, that they would want to reach me all the way over here in Tokyo? Lo and behold, it was some tips and tricks for Metroid Prime 3: Corruption! Now I can't remember the last time a game company sent out tips for one of their games, but I'm not one to look a gift horse in the mouth and neither should you be, so here they are:
Codes for the Cockpit radio (Use radio from left to right)
- Code1 2751 Iwata
- Code3 4617 Sakamoto
Tips
The four lights on the top of Samus’ helmet indicate the battery life in your Wii Remote
The following creatures can be killed with one shot by using the Nova beam and X-ray visor:
- Metroids
- Metroid Hatcher
- Bezerker Pirates
- Commando Pirates
Wow, I'm really curious to know what the Iwata and Sakamoto cockpit codes are all about. Can someone punch those in and let us know. I shall simply be on the edge of my seat until I find out!








From what I recall reading...those codes will bring up videos from those men...talking about how excited they are about Metroid, etc.
well unless someone made a mistake the only two messages there are are from Iwata and Miyamoto
but if sakamoto is another person then im not sure what his message is.
i know that iwata tells you that when he's stressed he gains weight rather than loses weight and for that reason people think he's not trying very hard or something.
Miyamoto says that he hopes you're enjoying metroid and he encourages you to finish the game.
From gamefaqs.com fan translations:
Secret Message from Iwata.
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 Yamamoto
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. Yamamoto!

Secret Message from 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!
