Skyward Sword Remake With No Motion Controls Would Be "Close to Impossible" - Eiji Aonuma

I agree, i felt the downgrade when i played the other games..
I really want to swing the sword using the motion controls again.
considering the kind of work that went into TWW HD and TPHD, he's right.
those games had practically no mechanical changes to them. it was mostly retexturing the games to look HD and adjusting a few things for balance.
for SS they'd have to reprogram all the combat and most of the items on top of doing the retexturing job. at that point why not just make a new game?
plus, if they released it as-is, it wouldn't work with some of the Switch's setups. no pro controller and no handheld mode.

Motion controls were fine. Just cut half of the imprisoned fights, trials and streamline a bunch of the padding at the end = profit.
Motion is the best way to control the game's shiekah slate powers, fwiw
You can flick something in magnesis and send it flying 100 ft away
That's uh quite a bit harder w/o motion control just bcuz camera manipulation is so much slower with the analog than it is with motion
Terrible because motion controls were awful and this was my least favorite Zelda because of them.
I did, it's been a long ass time but I don't remember it being as bad as SS. I could be wrong, though.
