New Skyward Sword Video Displays Gameplay Controls

Posted on September 17 2011 by Djinn

Youtube member jamesh446 recently posted a video of the Nintendo Europe seminar for GAMEfest Birmingham demonstrating the controls of Skyward Sword. The video consists of the boss fight with Ghirahim only emphasis was on the player displaying the Wii Motion Plus controls during gameplay.
Edit: It appears that this is a part of a series of videos covering demos of Skyward Sword for this event. The other three videos have been added after the break.

While this is a very familiar scene from the E3 demo, this time we are focusing on the player and their movements using the new controls while fighting Ghirahim. This was an interesting new perspective since I recall most of the E3 demos focusing on the story elements of that entire scene while not talking very much about the controls. Even I was much more focused on just who Ghirahim was at the time and never gave much though on the player controlling Link. However an interesting piece of information was given, Ghirahim was said to be the main antagonist of this game. Near the end of the video there is another mention of the special edition gold wiimote that will be bundled with the collector’s edition. As well as mentioning the European release date of November 18th, and that both editions will include the orchestral CD.

Edit
It looks as if this particular video was actually a part of a series covering many different demos of Skyward Sword with adde introducton and a few explanations of the gameplay. Here are the three other videos that jamesh446 provided.
