The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, like other Zelda games, has a musical instrument that you can use. This time, it’s a harp. It’s an item that’s passed on from Zelda to Link, and once you have it, you’ll be playing it using MotionPlus. The harp is also apparently a big enough deal in the game to have its own trailer. Watch it below:

  Hmm…where have we seen a harp in Zelda before? Series producer, Eiji Aonuma, points out that the harp in Skyward Sword has the same design as the one used by Sheik in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
