Aonuma so happy with the motion controls in Skyward Sword that he doesn’t want to make another one without them…

…and I’m inclined to agree. While there were a few instances where I felt the game wasn’t doing exactly what I wanted it to, on the whole I felt the controls were spot on. Here is what he had to say to Official Nintendo Magazine UK:

“I honestly think we cannot go back to button controls now, so I think that these controls will be used in future Zelda titles, too.”

I’m not sure how the Wii U version will work with MotionPlus + Wii U tablet controls, but I trust the fine people at Nintendo will figure that out for us. What do you think? Did you like the controls Skyward Sword brought to the table?
