look at this punk

[C.Mongler]

i like this game but i don't like the controls. i'm only like three hours in and there have been parts that require three simultaneous inputs across both hands, which is weird. Doable, sure, but i stood there for like three minutes trying to time aiming and hitting the buttons and it basically killed the pacing. additionally, the circle pad just doesn't feel good for precision controls, like i always feel like i fuck up my movement or aiming ever so slightly because of it.

two things that would have made this astronomically better (besides just full control customization, but lul, nintendo):
1. allow swapping the d-pad and circle pad controls
2. make fucking use of the N3D's extra buttons. i don't understand why in the year of our lord 2017, nintendo's first party games at the very least don't make use of the extra buttons on their updated system when they are having to resort to having controls designated to the touch screen or wonky combination/hold button presses

[TooB]

I haven't run into anything like that, at least not yet I guess

I do agree about dpad control tho

[C.Mongler]

my gripes would be mostly moot if i could play the game with the friggen d-pad ugh

[silvertone]

controls in 2d metroids have always felt weird 2 me

[Samus Aran]

i agree that being able to use the dpad would be nice. but any accidental fuckups on aiming or whatever have been pretty minor for me so far, can't say it really detracts from my enjoyment. about two hours in and it's a great fucking game
