Locked Wrote:1. No C-stick makes Lucina and Marth a pain in the ass to use. Aerials tend to stride you towards the direction you're inputting and it sucks.
2. Sometimes you randomly face the other direction which can really mess with your momentum.
3. Depending on how you angle your special attacks, you could do a side special instead of an up special causing you to lose a stock.
4. The inability to fully customise the buttons is a pain. You can only 'swap' them rather than fully replace.
5. You're more likely to do tilts than smash attacks (or vice versa).
1. While I don't necessarily agree with the Lucina and Marth thing, as I've never used the C-Stick to smash/do aerials, this is definitely an issue for those who do (and I do want to get into practice with it).
2. This is actually an issue I had more in Brawl than the new game. Every time I'd try to go one way in Brawl and let go of the control stick, it would flip my character to face the opposite direction. I can't recall any time I've run into this on the 3DS. However, this is an issue I believe with your control stick/Circle Pad not having proper alignment. When it resets to default position, it thinks you're going the opposite direction you had the thing pressed instead.
3. This is an issue that a lot of people I know, including myself, have had an issue with in all versions. I've noticed it only happens when I aim the control stick diagonally up, rather than correctly up.
4. I don't necessarily have a problem with this myself, as I adapted to the default control scheme, but I can see issues with this.
5. This is the one I truly agree with. It's frustrating a times, but it's not a game breaker.
That said, it's mobile smash. There's not much to expect and honestly, this is way better than I was ever expecting from a mobile Smash.
I don't mind the circle pad at all. It's not perfect, but it's not that bad.
