You know what I love about Nintendo games? It's those little extra touches that only Nintendo seems to care about. Case in point, check out this detail from when you actually get the Skyward Sword in Link's next adventure.

I had to twist my hand downward, then pull and point it upward. At that moment, Link and I were one, and I felt like a complete nerd.

It's something very minor, but it's that moment and gesture that really makes you connect with Link and his adventure. You're not just controlling Link, you are Link.
