One of Link's new abilities in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is actually a reference to a piece of very obscure Nintendo history.
As unveiled during the Tears of the Kingdom gameplay demonstration, Link will be getting a range of new abilities in the Breath of the Wild sequel - including Fuse, Ultrahand, and Ascend. As it turns out, one of these new abilities is a very obvious reference to a vintage Nintendo product. If you couldn't tell already, the ability we're talking about is Ultrahand - which has the same name as a Nintendo-produced toy from 1966.
