One of the big points of contention surrounding Star Fox Zero is how the game controls. With hands-on impressions coming out of E3, some have questioned if they’ll offer an intuitive experience.

German site Spiegel Online was able to ask Shigeru Miyamoto about Star Fox Zero’s controls during a recent interview. Here’s what was shared:

Spiegel Online: The controls of “Star Fox Zero” are due to the two screens a challenge.

Miyamoto: Compared to other games, it is a bit complex. There are many ways how video games entertain the player. One of it is the process understanding how a game works – another the process to master the controls. With mastering the controls you improve, which results in having fun. Out intention was not that players suggest: “There are two screens, that is making it complicated” Instead: “There are two screens, I can do different things on them.”

Spiegel Online: How long does it take to get into the game?

Miyamoto: It is hard to understand the basics, if you just try Star Fox Zero for a few minutes at like a games expo. Anyhow, if people buy the game and play it at home, after one or two days, they will reach the point where they understand how it works, how to master it – that is the moment the fun begins.
