Zelda Controls for Wii Changed

The Nintendo camp has decided to take a chance and gamble. Apparently, Ninty has made some major changes to the control scheme of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for the Wii. According to producer Shigeru Miyamoto, the game will now have room for players to swing the controller for sword slashes, before the B button is the one to press if you want Link to swing his sword, but Miyamoto added that “upon actually playing it, it’s more interesting this way“. The producer is of course referring to the controller-swinging action.

Aside from that, they also made some modifications to the game’s bow and arrow controls. A sort of exchange occurred – if before, players aimed with the Wiimote, then shoot using the D-pad, now that the B button is free, Nintendo has moved it to the B button. Miyamoto felt that that shooting the arrow with the D-pad was tedious, and the B button allows for quicker and easier shooting.

There has been no word if future players will be able to choose between different methods of control.
