5. Are you satisfied with the control options offered or would you have liked the option of using motion controls?

In a fighting-style type game I am a fan of simplicity, and I feel that motion control would have made the controlling the game a little too complicated. Not to mention that with the frequency that I play this game, I would have gotten one wicked case of Wii Elbow!
- Amanda L. Kondolojy

This has been the spark of many a debate, but to be honest, motion sensing doesn't really work for this type of frantic gameplay. Leave those motion controls for games like Wii Sports or Excitetruck.
- Branden Barrett

I don't feel that this game is entirely fit for motion controls.
- Devin Finley

I think they did a great job incorporating the various control schemes, but more extensive motion sensitive controls should have been an option.
- Jonathan Marx

We've seen far too many games messed up by tacked-on motion controls. A series as venerable as Super Smash Bros. doesn't need any gimmicks to be fun, so I'm perfectly happy with the control offerings.
- Joseph Catalanotto

It's the Wii, so motion controls should definitely be one of the options. Like I said in the review, I would like to sword-fight a bit or grab an enemy and punch it in the face a bunch of times.
- Maria Montoro

Motion controls could have made the game significantly better if implemented properly. The capability to turn them on-and-off as an extra control option would have been a nice touch, but the existing control variations to choose from are certainly sufficient.
- Nathan Meunier

I think that they did a great job offering as many possibilities as possible. As for motion controls, Smash Bros. is just too insane for such an ambitious thought.

6. Have you played or do you plan to play online?

Playing online is one of the features that I was most excited about, and I definitely play online, though not as much as with my family.
- Amanda L. Kondolojy

There is only one way to play online and that is to go out there and wipe out the competition. I'm more of a fan of the "no item" style gameplay, so I definitely would classify myself as a meta-game player rather than a casual one.
- Branden Barrett

I have!
- Devin Finley

Of course; I'll have to see where I stand in the world of SSB - pretty low on the totem pole I reckon.
- Jonathan Marx

Of course, though I've only played a few matches. Still, it's so much more fun to play against a real human being or three, even though you can't see them -- after all, the predictability of a real person is around zero when compared with predicting how a computer-controller Brawler will react.
- Joseph Catalanotto

I've played online against other people but not against a friend yet. The lack of headset makes this game less appealing than playing something through Xbox Live. My friends may be far away, but I want the whole experience!
- Maria Montoro

I currently don't have the capacity for online play, but I'd certainly play online if possible. The ability to play online is a good feature to include.
- Nathan Meunier

I play online a good amount, and I am more than pleased with how the game runs thus far.
