What is all the fuss about a second analog on a handheld? Why is it so important?

Dual analog isn't needed for mh. Played tri with mote and nunchuck throughout and it felt great. Willing to try this next mh because the useless claw method is gone.

Saying handheld without 2nd analog and no claw method is OK for MH because of wiimote/nunchuck.

I guess this case is closed.

+1 for saying claw method is useless. Confirmed for having never played the game on anything beside wii.

Yeah the MH on Wii made me like the franchise so I'm willing to try a handheld version, especially since I own that handheld. Many claimed that the claw method was terrible. Are you saying that it isn't?

I want to see how the control scheme is specifically before I will judge it on the 3DS though. A good control scheme will make or break the game for me. I know the game would've been great on the Vita though, wonder if it'll get a mh in the near future.
