The control scheme of ''Corruption'' was said to have been "never played this way before" and will "reinvent the control scheme for a first-person shooter." Voice acting was considered by Retro and later added to situate fan demands. With this interaction, Samus still remains quiet during the entire game, as stated before in an issue of ''Nintendo Power.'' Control schemes were a large concern in development, for the Wii Remote has fewer buttons than functions. The problem was solved with the delayed launch, which also led to the lack of inclusion for the Wii Zapper, a peripheral for the Wii Remote that simulates a gun, much like the NES Zapper and the Super Scope. The Zapper released too late for a new scheme for the game to be made. Regarding environments, they were said to have been custom-made with extremely detailed textures, making "every room its own custom stage." This was met in the final production. A fairly small marketing campaign was held for ''Corruption'' compared to the other games, most likely due to Nintendo's liking of casual games for their new system.

However, a [[Metroid Prime 3: Corruption Preview|Preview]] was released in the Wii Shop Channel, as well as several ''Metroid'' releases on the Virtual Console, being the original ''[[Metroid (game)|Metroid]]'' and ''[[Super Metroid]]''. The event was known as the "month of ''Metroid''."
