I played the demo last night with my wife and 2 friends and we had a blast. The analog on the Joycon is an absolute nightmare to use but fortunately you Can switch up the controls.
I'm excited for the NA release!
Heh I accidentally switched the controls once (and finally found out what that selection menu was) and good lord that almost screwed me, "oh god the controls are all wrong!"
...it actually turned out ok once I figured it out since it more or less matched TI graphing calculator Tetris controls I played with way way back. Dpad for controls on the right with up to rotate, down on the analog stick for hard drop. What screwed me up was up on analog for swapping pieces.
Is there a listing of the different control schemes or will I have to fumble through all of them to figure it out?
I'm really interested in this game and know you can get it now through Japanese eShop. Any reason I would need the English translations or use it something I can make my way through not knowing Japanese?
Everything is Japanese. There's translations of everything available but I'm waiting for the English release cause how much there is. If you need a quick fix the demo is pretty good. I mentioned on the last page, up to 4 player local or vs CPU multiplayer in normal and swap modes. It'll give you a decent idea of the amount of Japanese you'll have to deal with too.
