On the one hand bomb bowling kinda sounds like it owns, but on the other hand it sounds like it steps on the Bombchu's toes which would be completely unacceptable

Motion controls invariably suck and this is why this game sucked too.

bomb bowling is the worst because 50% of the time you try to put a spin on it and whip the controller up, it actually thinks you're lifting up to hold and then up again to throw and then it blows up in your hands

Real hurthling!

there was no reason to have motion controls for combat because the only times it ever matters is up/down/left/right/diagonals, which would be infinitely more accurate with stick + button

I played the demo and mashed through the tutorial text and couldn't figure out how to start flying. If anything in your game is so unintuitive I spend the entire demo period trying to figure it out you probably made a bad game.

yeah if twilight princess had more uses for their items and less silent realm bullshit it would have been pretty great.

spinner boss, yeti mansion, very simple motion controls that aren't too loving terrible, good poo poo.

I really liked all those optional different attacks you could learn, I just wish they were actually mandatory and thus they oculd design more enemies around mastering those techniques.

get that OUT of my face

I think it's most people's first Zelda game and their super nostalgic for it. LttP was better and Oracle of Ages used the same assets but way better also.
