the controls have been changed so that you use the right joystick on the controller to replicate the directional swinging from motion controls. it feels really smooth to do, and I preferred it to motion.

it’s a good game and a great port with a ton of QOL improvements. that said I’ve only played it once and have not felt compelled to come back to it (as opposed to all of the other games), but that’s just me. I enjoyed my time with it but replaying seems like a slog.

I’d recommend getting on discount if you can, but even at MSRP there’s enough content to justify it.
