[glow=red,2,300]Zelda Controller Compatibility[/glow]You can play the GameCube version on the Wii console, but you can't play the Wii build with the GCN controller.by Matt Casamassina August 16, 2006 - Ever since Nintendo revealed that there would be two versions of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess - one for GameCube and another for Wii - gamers have wondered if they could play the Wii build with the GCN controller. After all, Wii does play GCN games, too - but previous reports have suggested that Nintendo's innovative new remote is incompatible with GCN software. Well, during a Camp Hyrule chat with Nintendo's senior vice president of marketing and corporate communications, George Harrison, the executive confirmed once and for all that to play the Wii version of Zelda you will, in fact, need the Wii-mote. "The GCN controller will be able to play the GCN version on the Wii console, but will not be able to play the Wii version," Harrison told chatters in a live conference. Not exactly a revelation given that most informed readers already suspected as much, but a confirmation nevertheless, which is why we've picked it up as news. Incidentally, the only known difference between the two builds - other than new Wii-mote-enhanced controller for the Wii version, of course - is that the Wii incarnation also runs in 16x9 widescreen mode, whereas the GCN one doesn't. wii.ign.com/articles/725/725962p1.html

[glow=red,2,300] Sword Controls For Zelda[/glow] Swing the Wiimote to control Link's sword.by Anoop Gantayat August 21, 2006 - Nintendo has made some major changes to the control scheme for the Wii version of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Speaking to Japan's monthly Nintendo Dream publication, producer Shigeru Miyamoto revealed that the game will now allow players to swing the controller for sword slashes. At E3, players used the B button to swing Link's sword, with Nintendo explaining at the time that players would likely get tired having to actually swing the controller. "Upon actually playing it, it's more interesting this way," said Miyamoto to Nintendo Dream about the new control scheme. Going along with this change, Nintendo has made modifications to the game's bow and arrow controls. In the E3 version, players aimed with the Wiimote, then actually shot out arrows using the D-pad. With the B button now free, Nintendo has moved the action to the B button. Miyamoto felt that that shooting the arrow with the D-pad was too difficult, and the B button allows for quicker and easier shooting. It's unclear if the game will require the new control scheme or if players will be able to chose between different methods of control. Nintendo Dream closed off by asking Miyamoto to name the version of Zelda he personally prefers. The master game maker said that he'd play the Wii version, but added that both versions will be fun. "I can't talk about it yet, but this Zelda has a lot to it," said Miyamoto. "What you played at E3 was just the tip of the nail." Regarding Nintendo's statement at E3 that Twilight Princess would be the best Zelda in history, he said, "Yes. It's coming along quite nicely." With Twilight Princess due out at launch, GameCube and Wii owners will get to fully explore the potentially greatest Zelda game ever in just a few months.

Its been too long since I've posted here, but this is definately the must have game for Wii. Well..for the hardcore gamers anyways. I saw the new vids they release for it, and IGN's MattCass has been all over it since Halloween, but I found this awesome trailer for it...but its quite old. Anyhoo, if you're planning to get this game if you get a Wii, and you BETTER, this is just something else to drool over as you wait. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wL7Cib4_qAkP.S.: Matt is my hero. You rock! ~M TT

Ugh, the first boss is hella ugly. I didn't die, but don't forget to bottle some fairies before you go...just in case.

Kristin's been playing TP for 26 hours. She has no one to talk to about it either, cause stupid NICK is NOT kool. He totally needs to play MORE. Like...a LOT more. I played about 8 hours today. That's almost just as long as Nick has played it all together. GOSH. I NEED, so badly, someone to talk about it with.

I'm THIS close to getting to the 5th boss at the Snowcap Mountain, I already have the boss key, but probably won't play again til this weekend. And mrrt...tell your friend to shut his fanboy mouth. Link IS right-handed. Get over it. Ever since they said he'd be right handed in the Wii version, people got confused. It really doesn't matter....since I'm right handed too. ;D I think he may be left handed in the GC version of the game, but I think it confused people because they didn't know what hand to use the Wiimote with. N-0-0-bs! M T T
