I was thinking, if the Hidden Skills were to return, wouldn't it be cool if we could start out with them?
In Twilight Princess, the game's combat built up on itself so we'd slowly get stronger, gain more skills, and fight enemies that these skills were designed for. And, of course, it didn't overwhelm newbies. But after playing it twice (or...fifty-seven times...), we are no longer in the stage that we can't handle all the Hidden Skills at once.
A minor problem I had with Skyward Sword is that the Hero Mode still treated us like we couldn't play yet. I think the next Zelda title should allow us to skip tutorials once we are in "Hero Mode" or the 2nd Quest. And, if they show up, we should be given all the previously unlocked Hidden Skills at once. All items we receive should have their previous upgrades (assuming this returns). And we shouldn't have to go through the tutorial again when we are at the stage where we're attempting the hardest challenge the game has to offer.
