Zelda TP GCN version is better than the Wii version? - Dec 15, 2006 01:44
I' ve heard that the GCN version is better in some areas than the Wii version. Have any of you guys heard about it too?
There were some videos at some Zelda fan-site Hyrule... something (?), where they showed examples...

I' m getting the GCN version since I didn' t get a Wii so I' ll be enjoying that tomorrow I believe.
And when I get a Wii I' ll get the Wii version too

After playing the wii version for about 6 hours, theres no way i could go back to playing it on normal Controller..

If its visuals, not sure, but the wii version looks really nice in proogressive 16:9..

Comparing the two is silly tho, its probably the best 1 player game of recent years.. whatever version your going for just waist your time playing the game..

No, it' s not the visuals. It was the controller. Even though the controller is more fun it makes some things more complicated. I don' t know if it was camera control or something. Dammnit! Why can' t I remember which site it was????
And didn' t famitsu give the GCN version higher scores than the Wii version?
But someone also said it doesn' t matter which version you play because you' ll be so immersed in the experience that you' ll forget what control you' re using.
You' ve only played six hours? Hell, I would' ve played it at least eight hours on the first day!

Why the hell didn' t they just give the Wii version the ability to be played with the Gamecube controller anyway? Everyone who got a Wii is going to get the Zelda for Wii, anyway. People are only going to get the GCN version if they only have a Gamecube. There' s no reason that they couldn' t have added that function.

Maybe they' re afraid people will think the Wii-mote sucks compared to the regular controller
Here' s the damn fan-site/blogg with the videos anyway:

He' s got three reasons as to why the GCN version is better: camera, buggs and quickspins. With videos.

I see things differently. I don' t think the controller results in a better game, sure it' s fun to use, but i don' t think it would be any less so with a standard controller.

Hey, do you guys use the pointer feature in Wii version? I used it for a while, and still turn it back on for some of the aiming intensive challenges, but usually I have it turned off. My two main reasons are I think it saves on battery and the fairy noise was getting annoying.

I still use the pointer function, though i wish i could move & aim at the same time -It would be like a Zelda FPS.

BTW have you turned down the Wiimote speaker volume He? I' ve turned it down to 3 and its not too annoying at that level. AS for batteries i got a stack of rechargable AAA batteries on standby so i never need to worry about running out of power.

I prefer the Wiimote now for Zelda now, i guess the main advantage is the on the fly aiming with the pointer, plus wireless+rumble. The sword fighting doesn' t showcase the Wiimote because there is no 1:1 motion sensing translation. I have no problems with the camera. When the (supposed) Zelda made specifically for Wii arrives then we will see how the Wii version of LoZ:TP should have been like. Until that time Zelda:TP will simply be a Masterpiece GC title used to sell Wii' s. SOmething i have absolutely no problems with.

The Gamecube version is only 4:3 because the GC is a very weak, underpowered system. However the Wii version is in 16:9 because the Wii is super powerful and is the future of high definition gaming and was built with space age technology and has cutting edge graphics using state of the art processors.

I usually have the controller volume turned down to 1, Tiz. The controller sounds for Zelda seem louder than other games. I usually also have the rumble turned off. That' s not so much because I want to save batteries as I just don' t care much about rumble. I like that they included the ability to turn it off.

We were just talking about how you can' t play the Wii Twilight Princess with the GCN controller, Phoenix.


Holy shit I just realized I have a Gamecube!


Oh, shit! How did I not see that thing in the corner? How long has that thing been there?! Wait, I don' t remember buying a Gamecube. A GAMECUBE SNUCK INTO MY HOUSE!!

The Wii is super powerful and the next generation of videogame graphics, and therefore the Wii version of Zelda is 16:9. I just can' t get over how awesomely powerful the Wii is! It' ll blow you away!!! The Gamecube barely even has enough power to turn on the light when you press the power button, so it' s stuck at 4:3.
