This information comes from Killer Freaks From Outer Space producer Guillaume Brunier…
“We’ve used the accelerometer feature. If you move very fast the game will know and adjust movement speed. Those familiar with FPSes know how difficult it is to go around 180 degrees. With these new controls it’s a thing of the past.”
It’s going to be very interesting to try out this type of control scheme. It’s probably easier than dual analog controls, but I’m not sure if it’ll beat out the Wiimote pointer setup. It’s been difficult for me to return to dual analog due to my comfort with the Wii controller!
It’s amazing that, by the end of 2011, three new Kirby games will have been released. Epic Yarn launched last year, and now Kirby Wii and Mass Attack are on the horizon. Oh, and there’s Amazing Mirror as well thanks to the 3DS Ambassador program!
Nintendo of America has confirmed two additional GBA titles for the 3DS Ambassador program. Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 and Kirby & The Amazing Mirror will be included in the free lineup of games for early 3DS adopters later this year.
It’s kind of surprising to see that customer service representatives actually revealed information before Nintendo delivered the news officially. I won’t complain about it, though!
Nintendo’s European divisions continue to show support for Xenoblade Chronicles. If you’re in France and register your copy of the game, you could be eligible for a free 200 page art book. The first 1,000 consumers to add the title to Club Nintendo will receive the bonus. Quite nice, isn’t it?!
