The smaller blade is the one you're supposed to use to thrust into the opponent or slash him depending on the opportunities given. Where do you learn all this crap from? Retarded Ninja Fights volume 1? Do you realize how stupid it would be to block with an off-handed shorter blade when you have a perfectly good longsword or whatever else with good reach and potential for parrying?

Since the nunchuck attachment does not have full motion recognition and can't track gestures (just movements of the unit in a general direction), a second sword "controlled by the nunchuck" independently doesn't make any sense, especially given as the thumb stick on the nunchuck is used for movement. Until something is said by Ubisoft, this is just somebody's creative interpretation of a screenshot and attempt to make "news" out of thin air.

Look at the hilt - its only big enough for one hand. No, in all pics its a shorter blade - wakizashi. Look at the hilt - its only big enough for one hand.
