Really wish that plot point had been elaborated on more though Nagato had dozens of black rods in each body, and needed to pierce pressure points to immobilize and restrict use of jutsu.

Obito's rods were so strong that merely touching them created a powerful binding, and he was able to create strong binding chains from each as well. Not just that, but he both bound the Biju to the Gedo Statue as well as to the Edo Tensei.

Lastly, Obito's Six Paths of Pain weren't dead bodies that he puppeted: he was forcing his control onto the Edo Tensei as well as the Biju sealed inside them. Compared to that, Nagato's Paths were child's play.
