Is it possible to make Link left-handed in Zelda: Skyward Sword?

Question

In The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, is it possible to play the game with a left-handed Link? Obviously, I can switch hands I use for the Wiimote and nunchuck, but that won't change how Link appears on-screen.

Answer

No, there's no left-handed mode, although there were lots of rumours. This IGN editor's note confirms that from Nintendo itself.

When sites started reporting our "news" we immediately started to have second thoughts. Was there a left-handed mode? We consulted our combined 50 pages of notes and realized we had made no such observations. That lack of evidence caused me to quickly send an inquiry to Nintendo for extra verification. However asking Nintendo a question can take a little while, particularly if it's something a bit off the radar or about a very specific game detail...

...Late, late last week I heard back from Nintendo that there was no so such mode.

Is there any way for me to turn off just the music in The Binding of Isaac?

Question

I've got nothing against the awesome soundtrack of The Binding of Isaac, but I love to blast other songs while I play video games, so I'm trying to turn the music off. There doesn't seem to be any option from the main menu, however, and there's no config file for the game as far as I can tell. Is it still possible to turn off the music?

Answer

Press "M" to toggle music during the game.

What does 'Show ENDOOM Screen' mean?

Question

I recently got ChexQuest III and was customizing the mouse sensitivity and video options when I saw a rather cryptic option: 'Show ENDOOM Screen'. It was set to OFF and I set it to ON just to see what it would do, but I couldn't notice anything different.

Is there anybody who knows what this means? I think it might have something to do with the graphics that come up after you complete an episode, but they weren't any different with it ON or OFF.

Answer

The ENDOOM screen is actually a screen that shows up when you exit the game, however some ports do not have this screen, so that's the reasoning for having the option.

You can see some of the different ENDOOM screens at the Doom Wiki.
