Assuming this is true, this is great.
I remember playing Star Fox Command once fro the DS, and hated using the stylus for that game, and wondered why I couldn't just use the d-pad.
I'm worried that Nintendo might try to force a gimmick in this game, but thankfully, that doesn't seem to be the case.
"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."
