up to and including Twilight Princess.

And I believe the GC version of that game was the intended one, right? I think I remember that they tacked on Wii support later on.

Yup. And the wii version is a mirrored playthrough, compared to the Gamecube version. Link is typically left-handed. To make him right-handed for wiimote-users, the quickest solution was to flip the whole darn world about its y axis.

Would have been cooler to just force them to play left-handed.

Sure, or at least leave the original layout as a lefty option. Switch it up to your off-hand on the second playthrough for Hero Mode.
