    Goldeneye had dual analog. And before that, Turok had digital pad+analog, which was pretty much the same thing.

    It's not dual analog when you're using one analog stick and digital buttons.

    The game is looking to be top quality. Don't really care about multiplayer, as Metroid is usually a single player game.

    Yeah, but the underlying principle of both control systems is identical.

    PS: You can use the digital pad in Halo, instad of the second analog stick.

    No, but it's dual analog when you're using two separate controllers. Goldeneye allowed this.
