Oh, side note, was reading Nintendo Power, and it said (and showed) Link as a righty for the Wii version of the game to coincide with using the Wii-mote in the R hand (swinging the sword). That's pretty neat, against most (but not all) of the Zelda games however. Bear in mind that most of the Links (all but the orig LOZ and Zelda II TAoL) were different "links", so why couldn't they switch hands? I wonder if you're a lefty and if you switch your wii-mote hands if it'll change in the game? (like an option in the menu to play left handed if you are left handed, doubt it, but it would be cool). Does anyone know if the GC version is still lefty? (The pics from august of this year show him as a lefty in the GC version)
Link is right-handed on the Wii version, so most players can get used to the Wiimote and gameplay.
Link will be left-handed in the GC version.

As a result, the entire Wii version is mirrored. At first, this may not seem like a problem since very few have played the game when Link was a lefty. Yet, considering the game map would normally correspond with the map from Oot, (location of Death Mountain, Lake Hylia, ect...) the areas won't be in the correct places when compared to Oot, taking away from the game in nostalgia factor at the least.
Why do lefty's feel so left out all of a sudden? I'm pretty sure all you have to do is put the Wii-mote in the othe rhand and nunchuk in the other...not a biggie...the wii-mote isn't contoured or anything so it should be fine...
I HATE how they reversed the map! I would have prefered to go through the entire game left handed (and I'm right handed!) then have them switch it around. The sun will rise and set in the wrong places, and there will be locations in the wrong places too! I don't know why they couldnt just leave it so that we use our left hands. Whats the worst that can happen to us right handed people? We become ambidexterous...whooptiedoo
