This information comes from The Last Story director Hironobu Sakaguchi…
Details
– Dolby Pro Logic II compatible
– Go to the options menu and choose from mono, stereo and DPLII
– Switch the button to either up or down for command mode
– Girls with small hands in the Mario Club tested the game, which was why the down key is included
– Map objects that are destroyed are automatically repaired
– Sakaguchi advises fans think of the objects as attack gimmicks, not background elements
– “Pointer” lines for enemy targeting can be changed to off, show only when Elza has executed his Gathering move, show always, show pointers for enemies and allies

– No Wiimote shake controls
– Control options automatically switched when using the Classic controller

– Set your name using up to 8 alphabetic characters for multiplayer
– Game doesn’t use the Wiimote speaker
– Sakaguchi says the game is impossible on an HD system due to Nintendo and the Mario Club working with Mistwalker for nine months, which basically added to the development staff

– Different bow types for the gun
– Elza’s arrows for his bow gun are infinite
– Other bow gun ammo starts off at 0 and isn’t infinite (banana included)
