NOA always dropping the ball XD

Like I said, if there's no motion controls then there's no chance for games like Starfox Zero to happen, so I'd rather they not exist even despite being good in a few cases. I'll bet my mama you've played shooters on sticks before, so I can definitely imagine you playing Splatoon that way and liking it.

I am, yeah. I want to finish the Prime saga before Pokemon releases, working hard on it xD.

Tbh, it's not really a goof Metroid game, it certainly lacks more exploration. But, well, it's decent enough as its own. But if you're looking for a Metroid classic experience, it's probably not your game. 

Your mama is safe, yeah xD. I wouldn't have trouble playing without motion controls, but it could feel a bit lacking for me. If Nintendo doesn't force us motion controls, we can have both. But Nintendo is always doing weird stuff, so I can understand your concern about it xD. The ideal solution would be having both, well implemented, in ganes that benefit for motion controls imo. 

But in the case of Prime, it's superior controls.  I mean, I don't feel that way about any other motion controled game.  Like, I really like Skyward Sword but the motion controls at best are just different, not better, and there are some gimmicks that are bothersome.  But Metroid Prime?  The motion controls, imho, markedly improve gameplay and flow. 

Prime Trilogy's Wiimote controls obliterate the Gamecube ones. Not only is the pointer far better for aiming than an analogue stick, but having to stop and hold a button just to look up in the GC version was always kinda clunky and lame. I can't go back to the older versions now.

I know we've disagreed on the Metroid series many times, but I could not agree more with that sentiment.  Honestly, controls is one of the few things I question concerning the future of Metroid Prime if they pursue it on consoles.  I couldn't imagine going back to GC controls and the Switch clearly doesn't have the Wii system of motion controls even if it has gyro controls.

If theyever make another prime game I can't see myself playing it without motion controls. MP trilogy is one of those games where the motion controls work way better than the regular controls

SS is my favorite Zelda game but I wouldn't call the controls amazing, sure they worked but it wasn't anything out of this world.

There are certain games that just wouldn't be nearly as great without motion/pointer controls in my opinion; not just the Prime Trilogy, but Splatoon, the Mario Galaxy games, Sin & Punishment 2, etc.

For Prime yes I'll definitely agree it's superior as that's the one thing motion controls are good for, though quick precision aiming is not really that important in this game. My issue isn't just how it's implemented, but also how you have to use it. Gotta sit upright keeping the pointer on the screen and having enough room around your arms to waggle, so I can't just kick back and relax. You'll think this isn't a big deal of course, but it is! I cannot stand anything that even slighty hinders my gameplay experience for there are too many games out there that don't do this for me to deal with some special snowflakes. I don't use 3D on 3DS for this reason, as even that 1 second screen blur that happens every so often is completely unacceptable. Don't even get me started on XCX! I only still have that game in hopes the price jumps like the Wii one did.
