Iizuka told us: “Personally I prefer using the Wii-remote on its own - you just fly. You feel like you’re flying, moving more smoothly just with the sensation and freedom of it. But the team use the Gamecube controller because it’s so similar to the feel of the original 3D controller. The analogue stick is shorter and more like the Saturn pad.” So much for advanced technology, eh?
