you probably already know this by now but for those who don' t, the new zelda will include some feautures that will be compatible with the revolution controler !!
we were sick to hear that zelda was pushed further instead of a november 2005 release, because the team wanted to include some additional cool stuff, well here it is... you can now imagine using the controler as a sword or may be using it as the .... how do you call his thing by the way ?? you know the thing you use to reach very high platforms ... damn it

good news i guess , i can' t wait to see the results!!

the website is in french that' s why i didn' t see a reason to post a link and i never bullshit anyone, i guess history proved it :)

Please translate the whole article to english. You' ll be my best friend for the rest of the year
If it' s all true, it pisses me of. I want the game NOW. If they want to add stuff for the Revolution, they can do that later.

Ginjirou be sure that that' s what the article says and i' m sure it' s 100% true, it even makes sense why nintendo pushed the game to a mid 2006 release...

for the imagination part , that was my part , it was my magination but i' m sure that nintendo will use its controler in the fishing part , may be for using the bow as well why not?? or move your boat using the controler as oars ... imagine what you want but the idea sound interesting although a lot of people will nto care and want their zelda now...

how do you call his thing by the way ?? you know the thing you use to reach very high platforms ... damn it

The Longshot!

it' s a bit B U L L S H I T cause :

They said they need to add some things (dungeons and stuff they feel they didn' t get right in Wind Waker) and that game needs to be more polished to be a worthy addition to the series.

It' s true it will use Rev controller (it' s all over web now - IGN ,1up -you name it)but it' s not the main reason for the delay.


:)

it' s not bullshit gangsta :)

it' s not the main reason as you said of course , but i think an addition like this will need a lot of work ...

yes longshot thanks

The whole game will be compatible with the Revolution controller, being that it' ll likely be released on the Revolution instead of the Gamecube which is dead.

they didn' t say the whole game joe, but some aspects

I know they didn' t say that. They are slowly segueing into it. That way once they have everyone knowing that the thing works with Revolution features, they' ll come right out and announce it as a launch title for the Revolution and that it will not come out on Gamecube. It makes perfect business sense. That game could/would do so much for the Revolution, especially at launch, than it could ever do for the Gamecube. In all, there is much more potential $$$ to be made if it is a Revolution launch game.

Is pretty much what I said about their next-gen Mario game and they eventually moved the project over to the Revolution which I thought was incredibly wise on their part.. I to also believe that they should move Zelda to the Revolution as there' s really nothing the game can do for the GameCube at this point. But IMAGINE the impact of having a next-gen Mario and Zelda game at launch and a few months after launch?? That would definitely make some sort of impact!

Nintendo themselves recently said that the game would surely be released for the Gamecube. The reason is that Revolution will be fully backward compatible with all Gamecube games. So releasing it for the Gamecube will be the same as releasing it for the Revolution. Even though the Revolution is probably capable of performing better graphics and such, the time required for such an upgrade of the game would delay the game even more. So by simply adding controller elements that takes advantage of the Revolution they really have chosen the best option. The Gamecube might get a slight boost in sales when the game is released and the Revolution will have a superb game even before launch. I still feel I want the game now.

FF12 comes when ps3 comes...my brother took my ps2,and i xbox/gc,nice that dragon quest8+ff12 will be playable on it for me.

Zelda will be playable on the rev and the cube, so there is no need to bring it over to the rev as a luanch title, as it allready is.

however it won' t be revo optimized

A killer app released for the Xbox doesn' t make it an Xbox 360 killer app regardless of backwards compatibility. Same goes for PS1 to PS2 to PS3, and same goes for the GameCube to Revolution . For one thing, the incentive to rush out and get a Revolution isn' t there since the game is also playable on the cheaper GameCube.

But the game esperience is totally different on the Revolution. Pretty much like a different game. If they would optimize it for the Rev, it might be released long after the Rev release. It' s better to release it now for the Gamecube and get working on a new title for the Rev.

but the rev needs it, the rev has allmost no games lined up for it. Super smash brothers is all i hear for the launch. Nothing to wet my pants over. Seriously, it needs more games!

For people wanting a ps3 and doesnt have a ps2 or is it broken,buying a ps3 and then use their ff12 on it is just awesome...
