features 3D aerial combat, while the bottom screen displays characters and dialogue.

original controls, while the new Nintendo 3DS Mode uses the motion controls of the
built-in Gyro Sensor of the Nintendo 3DS system.

or captured by an enemy, players must act to protect them in order to keep their team
strong.

• Each mission takes players through a different planet of the Lylat system as they blast
enemies, collect power-ups and fight powerful bosses on their way to the final battle.
• A new multiplayer option lets up to four players engage in fierce aerial combat via a local
wireless connection (using four systems and one game card via DS Download Play). The
multiplayer mode also includes new power-ups and special weapons. Players can use the
Nintendo 3DS system’s inner camera to display a live video feed of their faces as they
battle, bringing a new level of fun and personalization to the multiplayer experience.
