Nintendo trying to recapture that NES magic?

I didn't have a single issue with that, but when I first "learned" how to play that goddamn harp, I almost died in real life. It took me literally 34 minutes to pass that single song because my controller kept flipping out. I tried all sorts of waving motions with all sorts of different speeds, and I could just NOT get it to work. I literally almost threw my special gold remote at the TV (throwing a controller is something I've never done before (still haven't!)). That's how upset I was.

Oddly after that it worked almost flawlessly in all future attempts. I feel as though the game was trolling me.

I'm not sure if this means that very difficult classic gaming is doomed, or if motion controls are d0med.

Reason is, back when the NES was the thing, it was common to want to throw your controller at the screen.

Maybe people nowadays just can't handle the NES, what do you guys think?

It's a distinctly different feeling when something isn't responding how you think it should, versus the difficulty being too hard.

I love NES games and even though I can't get through the last dungeon in Zelda1 without a guide, I appreciate the difficulty. Hell, I'm one of the very few people who loves AoL, and I still can't beat the last temple. But I love it.

 

I hate it when my controls aren't responding the way they should be.
