Re: Useless information about fictional characters?

Heh, I have handedness stuff too. There was a lot of flack when Skyward Sword came out because it had an unambiguously right-handed Link for the first time in the series (due to the sword controls - it uses Wii Motion Plus, so they made Link right-handed so his movements would match with the majority population). But I'm not totally sure he - or many of the other Links - ARE just right-handed or left-handed, I think a few are mixed-handed.

For instance: both Ocarina!Link and Skyward!Link use the bow in the same way, holding the bow in their right hand and pulling the string back with their left, so that's left-eye dominant. Same with the slingshot - holding it in their right hand, pulling back with the left. However, Skyward!Link holds his sword in his right hand, Ocarina!Link in his left. That's possible evidence for Skyward!Link being mixed-handed.

Also, Ocarina!Link holds the hookshot/longshot in his right hand, indicating that it's possibly stronger than his left, so HE'S possibly mixed-handed too - a lot of people with mixed-handedness have one hand that's good at precision, one hand that's good at strength. (Same case with me - right hand is precise, left hand is strong. I'm also left-eyed, so most similar, so far, to Skyward!Link.)

Wind Waker!Link, Twilight Princess!Link (canon GC version), and Spirit Tracks!Link are probably just pure left-handed, since they hold the hookshot/clawshot in their left hands as well as their swords (ST!Link doesn't use a hookshot, but he does use a whip, and that's in his left hand), and use a left-eyed archery stance.

Useless information, whoo!
