Thats sorta wrong
Quote:He began rethinking the controls with Miyamoto to focus on comfort and ease. The camera movement was reworked and item controls were changed to avoid accidental button presses. In addition, the new item system required use of the button that had previously been used for the sword. To solve this, sword controls were transferred back to gestures—something E3 attendees had commented they would like to see. This reintroduced the problem of using a right-handed swing to control a left-handed sword attack. The team did not have enough time before release to rework Link's character model, so they instead flipped the entire game everything was made a mirror image. Link was now right-handed, and references to "east" and "west" were changed. The GameCube version, however, was left with the original orientationThe original was left handed link till they flipped for the wii that then caused problems so they fliped back and made the sword go by buttons. working on items that used the same button caused problems so they fliped it back
