Yet another thing I saw at PAX that I apparently didn’t tell you guys about. While I was wondering around the SEGA booth trying to get some hands on time with other games, I noticed people playing the game with the Wii remote by itself, no nunchuck. Apparently, this is a control option available in the new build. I didn’t have a chance to try it out for myself, but I have a feeling most would probably prefer to just use the nunchuck anyway. Still, it’s a neat option, and useful for co-op if you lack a second nunchuck.
Sonic Colors is scheduled to come out this November.
Holy wow, that’s awesome! Can’t wait to see how that works.
I guess you would have to chake the wii remote up and down to use the wisps then.
Can’t be that bad.
I mean Metroid: Other M played perfectly well with a D-pad.
Still, most peoplw will be using the Nunchuck or the Classic Controller
or even the gamecube controller.
Nah I’m sticking with the nunchuck
Although this is pretty cool
I read in an interview (would link to it but couldn’t find it again) that wii remote solo was more “natural” especially in 2d parts.
sounds like it might be like SATSR’s controls except without the automatic running
Guys i know this is out of context but… today was the day they said sonic x season 4 would air
anyone knows something about?
It’d be better if I could play with a Game Cube controller; I’m glad the game’s not forcing me to play with Wiimote and Numchuck, but I’d feel more comfortable playing with an analog stick.
@ Will: It’s been confirmed that the Classic Controller and Gamecube Controller are supported.

The game used the Gamecube Controller at SoS too.
^ I must have missed that, that’s great!
I’ll probably stick with the Remote+Nunchuk, but I’ll be sure to try out wiimote only.
GC all the way.
Still a nice option.
BTW, you guys were kinda late here. In the video showing the full Planet Wisp level a little while ago, if you listened carefully to what the guy talking said, he said “He’s playing with the Wii Remote and Nunchuk, but I played with just the Wii Remote”.

so thats 4 control options. i think i’ll use the classic controller like i did with unleashed
I’ve stated before that you can alwso switch controls on the fly, no options or pausing required. Just take out the nunchuck, and blam! Just plug in classic or GC controller, an blam! Controls and hints change to reflect the controller you use.
Oh, I know there where mentions of it in a few places, but no actual news. Simply put it wasn’t announced by anything in the news. So…here it is.
Sticking to Gamecube & Classic controllers thank you
eh..I’ll go with the nunchuck combo for analog control precision.
I think I’ll go with wiimote+nunchuck and classic controller. I’m tired of playing Wii games with the GC controller.
I think I’m going to keep with the GC controller. I played the demo that way, and as I had the first experience with the GC controller, it just seems natural. It’ll seem more like Unleashed (ps3/360) that way.
I wouldn’t exactly say confirmed yet since it could’ve just been a test to see customer reaction.
Here’s I want for new Sonic games:
1.SEGA, make Sonic shows his feelings for Amy Rose.
2.SEGA, Nintendo, Hudson Soft, make Mario & Sonic Party crossover game.
3.I want Sonic Adventure 3 for Sonic’s 20th birthday.
4.I want Sonic to be more popular.
5.Make Amy more appearance.
6.Sega, Nintendo make Mario and Sonic Adventure game.
7.Sonic 4 episode 2 and 3 better had Knuckles and Tails or Amy.
8.Add Sonic theme land at Six Flags parks in USA.
9.Make Tails more friend with Sonic.
10.Sega, Bioware, make Sonic Chronicles 2, make Sonic and Amy more closer, add more playable characters, better music, better sound effects from Sonic games, final battle on Eggman, Shade and Knuckles’s love, better models, better backgrounds, better graphics, make perfect battle system for Sonic characters, make Sonic hubs from the games on maps, and much more.
Please, SEGA. Do your best on new Sonic games.
@ Ryan
That’s sort of unrealistic expectations for SEGA… And why Six Flags? Six Flags is dying. Do it at Universal! I’m not a fan of Harry Potter, but when I went to that Harry Potter island this Summer, I felt like I was actually in the books.
