Forums - Nintendo Discussion - So Link is right handed in the next Zelda?

O-D-C on 07 June 2009

  Judging by the concept art released it looks like Link will be right handed in the next Wii Zelda.

  Makes sense I guess since most people hold the Wii Remote in their right hands, but I know purists will hate it, unless they make a Gamecube version (jk) :p

They should make a gc version. It'll outsell the wii by millions!

OT: Most likely. Just like the wii version of TP

Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true

Maybe the 'new direction' for zelda is being right handed.




8th gen predictions. (made early 2014)
PS4: 60-65m
WiiU: 30-35m
X1: 30-35m
3DS: 80-85m
PSV: 15-20m

maybe nintedno should put in an option to simply change what hand link uses. and without fliping around the whole game world.

based on the concept that most people uses the right hand for the remote I think we'll see Link holding the sword (or whatever) with the right..

I love zelda games but I'll dont get pìssed with that change

I'm sure that somehow relates to Zelda, but I'm just not seeing it...

 

OT: Yeah, he probably will be right handed.  His handedness doesn't bug me in the least, personally.  All the Links are different people, so why do they all need to use the same hand?



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

maybe an option like 'are you left/right handed?' and then the game makes Link the same handness as you and makes you hold the Wii remote in the selected hand?

Link was originally ambidextrous, constantly switching which hand he held his sword in, so I don't care what hand he swings his sword in.
