This comes from the product description on Amazon.de :
Translation by magicalsoundshower:
Those Feather Statues are definitely new... I guess they allow for permanent saves? In the original game, only way to save permanently was using the song of time... the owl statues only allowed for temporary saves that would be deleted when you selected it from the main menu.
My guess is you can only save permanently via those Feather Statues (without using the song of time), in order to keep it as close to the original as possible (vs: you can now save at any time like in most modern Zelda games).
