I can't remember when in the game this started to happen, but neither child Link or adult Link can grab and pull things like blocks or levers. I've tried resetting, and I'm playing on the Wii, so the cartridge trick doesn't work. Link still can't grab anything and I'm stuck at the room in the Spirit Temple where I need to pull the mirror to hit the sun things on the wall. Is this a game defect?

i really have no idea, exept a defect in the game youre playing, or a glitch. try the Wii forum, dude.

The Wii forum? That doesn't make any sense. It's the same game, just on the Wii instead of the 64.

Anyway, are you sure you have to push/pull it? Try hitting it with something.

I've tried hitting it with the hammer and the sword. I've tried all four directions that it could be grabbed. It's obvious that I need to pull the mirror to the right position, and this has happened in other parts of the game where I need to pull or push blocks. It acts like it will grab, then Link rolls away/towards the thing. this is very frustrating since I'm near the end.
