    Ill never forget how Nintendo switched Link to right handed for Twilight Princess on the Wii because it made for a “more immersive experience”.

    Only to find out it was a completely pointless change bc motion controls were pure gimmick in TP. You end up just flicking your wrist like a maniac, and it doesn’t matter at all that you’re lefty or righty.

      Didn’t know he was left-handed in the first place, but now his name makes sense. Waiting for the next sequel with his brother, Recht

      Twilight Princess is one of the few games I have actually quit playing because the controls were so bad, and one of the only remakes I have ever been interested in as a result. It just made my hands hurt and it didn’t seem to matter what direction you swiped even though that was integral to the controls.

        The skyward sword remake on the switch was fine to play at least. Still waiting on twilight princess (i had skyward sword in my head when writing this)

          Was skyward sword the one where you could only save the game at special totems? One of the games i flat out quit at the first dungeon because you couldn’t save where you wanted to like every other one before… why change that?
