Sin and Punishment: Star Successor

I have heard great things about it, but I'm worried. When the sequel got announced, I downloaded the N64 version on the Virtual Console. Maybe it's because I was using Gamecube controls, but I had real problems controlling it.

I like the idea of aiming and moving with different controls, so I'll probably get it at some point.

EDIT: I just realized your link was your review and not the Nintendo page for the game. It's the first time a game review has altered my state of buying priority (game-buying is not yes-or-no for me). Not really surprising as I've fully read less than 5 reviews in my life (two being this and your FFXIII review).

So now I'm stuck between buying this game or getting Borderlands for the "game is old" price.

I found the best controls the classic controller with control scheme C. Still, it takes a lot of getting used to, but you have to keep in mind. The game was designed to work with the N64 controller. Look at an N64 controller. Look at classic and gamecube controllers... Yeah. This is designed to use the wiimote, and is much, much better for it. The plot is a load of nonsense, from what I've heard, but nobody plays Sin and Punishment for plot, just like nobody plays Star Fox 64 for plot.
