I'd like an indicator for each direction of the D-pad, the A button, and the B button so that when new abilities are unlocked, players can easily understand how to use the new abilities. Something similar to the crank indicator should do.
They already exist,

Why can't I read dense documentation. Coded my (A) and (B) graphics from scratch XD Thanks for pointing this out.

Thanks for sharing the button accessibility link. I was hoping for something like the crank animation. Here is an example. Alternating the D-pad direction with the blank D-pad and giving the A and B buttons animations that make them look like they're being pressed would be nice touches.
