Are we still debating Motion Controls vs. traditional controls for ARMS? Here's my take

Discussion

Okay, so all last weekend I used motion controls and this morning I decided to try using my pro controller. I think I've found the benefits to each, I wanna see if you all agree:

Overall, using the pro controller makes the basics of the game easier. For long time gamers, moving your character around with a control stick as opposed to tilt controls is much more natural. Throwing and curving punches also feels more natural.

However, using the motion controls allows better control over all the finer details. Guarding (which isn't exactly a finer detail but I just wanted to mention it here) is FAR easier to do by tilting than pressing in the stick in. Curving individual hands isn't possible with standard controls as far as I know, and in my opinion it's much easier to change targets on the fly with motion controls.

I guess it always just comes down to personal preference, right? Personally, I just find the motion controls to be really fun so I think that's my preference. What do you guys think?
