Attack of the Lefties! Now it's time to point out that the world's most greatest genius are left-handed: da Vinci, Einstein, Hendrix, McCartney and me!

Just kidding. Some games are designed pretty well from left-handed, but sometimes, developers forget that some features are difficult for lefties to use them. For instance, the racing mini-game against Dedede in Kirby: Canvas Curse is impossible for left-handed people, as your hand blocks your view on Kirby and makes it more difficult to control.

But I confess I was a bit worried when I say the Slide Pad, but probably on these cases, the ABXY buttons will do its job (although that might not fit as perfectly as the pad) for left-handed.

I agree 100% with you on this. Some games do a great job of conforming to left handed playing. Zelda for instance moves the menus to the opposite side of the screen so it is easier to reach with the left hand and your hand dosne't block the screen when selecting.

HOW COULD I BE SO IGNORANT?! I saw that video again, and confirmed Miyamoto is indeed left-handed! ANOTHER GENIUS IS ADDED TO THE LIST!!! But, then, why he used a right-handed Link at the demo this year? He could easily use a left-handed one stating you could change Link's hand in the game.

Now, that makes me worried... Please don't screw this up, Miyamoto! You're just like us, I'm sure you'll see we'll have trouble if you don't add a left-handed Link to the game!
