Reword Angle button mapping description, and add mention of piano grip

Overfiendvip: respectfully, the scheme-listing on this page has gotten out of hand, so I think it'd be best to simply refer to the gdoc instead - just because the wiki has fancy button images doesn't mean we have to use them, especially to that extreme degree

 There are many different control schemes used, even when comparing some of the best Super Metroid players.  With that in mind, try to find what's most comfortable for you instead of blindly copying another player's control scheme.
-Be aware that if you wish to place Dash on L or R, you cannot reassign the Angle Up or Angle Down buttons (however, if you happen to be playing on Wii U Virtual Console, you can remap buttons appropriately in its menu to compensate).
+Be aware that Angle Up and Angle Down can only be on R or L, so if you wish to use those buttons for another function such as Dash or Item Select, then the corresponding Angle will be unbound. However, if you happen to be playing on Wii U Virtual Console, you can remap buttons appropriately in its menu to compensate.
 Some schemes may be more conducive to "claw" grips (pulling your index finger above the pad, typically to reach the X and/or Y buttons), and some schemes may be more conducive to "fat finger" grips (using your thumb almost exclusively to control the face buttons).  You do not have to limit yourself to a specific method of holding the controller; generally, room transitions will give you plenty of time to change your hand orientation.
