It's fun! I think Wii U pro controler worked well, which is how I played most of the main story mode. For the arcade mode I enjoyed having off screen gamepad play, as unlocking all 24 character endings can get tiresome so its good to have a show on in the background. Also the CvT arcade stick works nicely for this game. I thought the online survival mode seems fun but didn't get much time with it before I had to bring it back to rental store.
