The Circle Pad Pro (http://www.joystiq.com/tag/circle-pad-pro) is expanding its leftward reach to include Kid Icarus: Uprising (http://www.joystiq.com/game/kid-icarus-uprising)on the 3DS. Without the Circle Pad Pro, Uprising players will use the stylus to aim and rotate the camera (generally with their right hands) and the 3DS' built-in circle pad to move Pit on land. The Circle Pad Pro will allow left-handed players to aim with their dominant hand, while moving Pit with their right.
Producer Masahiro Sakurai didn't know the specs of the Circle Pad Pro before Monster Hunter Tri-G (http://www.joystiq.com/game/monster-hunter-tri-g) was announced, meaning he wasn't able "to do anything big with it in the time we had," he told Official Nintendo Magazine (http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk/34138/kid-icarus-uprising-works-with-circle-pad-pro/). Still, Sakurai said he probably wouldn't have used the Circle Pad Pro too much because it "would end up being just the same as controls on other platforms and I think the quick aiming possible with the touch panel suits the game best."
Right, "other platforms (http://www.joystiq.com/tag/vita/)." Don't worry -- we know what you mean there, Sakurai.http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif (http://www.joystiq.com)Kid Icarus: Uprising gets left-handed mode with Circle Pad Pro (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/01/10/kid-icarus-uprising-gets-left-handed-mode-with-circle-pad-pro/) originally appeared on Joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com) on Tue, 10 Jan 2012 19:00:00 EST.
