They gave you more buttons, but added in buttons locked to only the sword and shield, unlike the original; you can't un-equip those items, unfortunately. Why force players to always have the sword and shield equipped? It may be because LA was my first Zelda game, but I've always thought that LA's system, where you can equip or un-equip any item, is better than the other games; I like being able to equip anything to any button, and always have. I know the GB did things that way because of wanting lots of functions on very limited buttons, but I've always liked the results... like, why can't you equip other things to A and B in the N64 games and beyond? But no, they're locked to the sword and shield only. Too bad.
