So Jim Sterling reviews Kid Icarus

This whole bashing of the controls in reviews is quite ridiculous. I own the game and I've got no problem whatsoever with the controls or the camera once I had customized everything in the options (movement speed etc.), but it seems that some reviewers don't bother trying to adapt as soon as they're in front of a somewhat unusual control scheme.

I also find it funny how most reviews only have like 1 paragraph about multiplayer gameplay while you're going to spend probably as much time (if not more) playing 3 vs 3 and free-for-all parties online (provided you can access Nintendo Network), and KIU's online mode is awesome. The lobby system is handy, private rooms have a lot of custom parameters, it's almost server lag-free, there's no slowdown even in 3D and it's pretty addictive.

I justed played the first three levels and I have a little problem with the controls.  You want to know why?  Because I am left handed and I don't have the circle pad pro yet.  I'm going to try to play it with the stand but I'll probably need the circle pad pro so I can hold the stylus with my left hand.  I do everything else with my right hand (except write) so I am able to semi pull it off but I still struggle holding the stylus (I simply can't grip a pen or stylus that good with my right hand).  So if anyone can bitch about controls it would be left handed people.  I highly doubt Jim Sterling is left handed.
