Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

[GeneralMBison (GMB)]

Now we are know that Twilight Princess was going to come out for the Gamecube, now it's heading to the Wii and also coming out for the Gamecube. This is the place to discuss the Wii version on Twilight Princess with the full use of the Wii-mote in shooting bow & arrows, throwing boomerangs, etc. The graphics of it, the characters from the game, the new world from it and so on.

Foe thoses who don't know when the game is going to come out, it comes out on Nov. 19, the release day for the Wii and many other games too.

I think it's really cool how they're going to use the speaker in the Wii-Mote. When you pull back the bow you hear a sound in the Wii-Mote and when you let go the sound get's smaller and smaller until it goes onto the tv. Sort of like how a bow is fired.

Do you think that maybe if Ganondorf is in it, that there come be a sword fight just like Wind Waker?

[soraeverhart]

That would work very well. Kinda like in red steel. an FPS sword battle against Ganondorf. That'd be fun

[kirbykiller4]

meh,i prefer to play the game the old-fashioned way.with that being said,i shall buy the gamecube version,even if i had a wii.

[cornbin]

I'm buying anything I can for the Wii. Which includes this game. Huzzah Wii!

Brawl? You mean Super Smash Bros. Melee on Gamecube? Also I've beaten all my friends and family members on that game. If your that good like me, then you should enter the Major League Gaming tournaments around the nation. But wait till 2007 becuase the 2006 season is in the Playoffs and the Championship series. Here is the site, www.mlgpro.com. Before I've moved away from California in the summer, I was in the 2005's Los Angeles and 2006's Anaheim SSBM Tournaments. Both of them, I've finished 10th place out of 130 (LA) and 177 (ANA) players. So I'm that close of winning it. I hope I do better in the 2007 season.

My brother pre-ordered the Gamecube version and got pissed off when he found out it was coming out for the wii to. Oh well atleast we'll still have it.

I think you meant to post this in the Super Smash Bros brawl topic. Copy and paste this post and submit it on the topic.

Not entirely true. It makes a creaking sound of the wood as you pull the arrow back, but then is just makes a sound of the arrow firing. There isn't any fancy sound of the arrow flying away. The speaker in the Wiimote is VERY low quality. It's GBA quality speaker or weaker, according to inside reports. Many people who have played Mario Galaxy and heard the coin sound say it sounds very lo-res and chirpy and they hope there is an option to not have sounds played thru the wiimote in games. (Seems stupid for a game like Galaxy, where you pick up like 10 coins at once so it would all chirp at once and probably be spaz-inducingly annoying.)

yeah I kind of figured that the speaker in the wiimote wouldn't be that great, it could be useful and fun for other types of games that could put it to good use too. but no doubt it will still make the game more fun =)

Well what do you guys think about the game now? Do you think it was better in the gamecube or the wii?

[Dark Hamsterlord]

Bumping a two year old thread, woo! (Nothing against it in the rules, so I felt it was better than making a whole new one)

I've been replaying Twilight Princess lately (Just beat the Temple of Time today) with three hearts, and I noticed a few things I didn't the first time around.

1. Holy crap this game is linear. I don't remember anything about it, but I can still complete dungeons without getting lost or confused at all.

2. This game hands out heart pieces like candy. I've had to reset so many times, because I say "No, there's no way that's a heart piece. It's out in the open, 3 rooms into the dungeon, with no obstacles. The MAP had more obstacles than this chest." it's a good thing I save before I open each chest, just in case.

3. I noticed it was easy before, but not THIS easy. I've encountered ONE enemy that kills me in one hit so far (A fat moblin/bokoboblin/whatever the hell it is.) Hell, DARKNUTS only deal 1 heart of damage. Half the bosses don't even hit me. And when they do, they basically throw hearts at you. (The most difficult boss so far was the one in the Snowpeak Mansion, just because the floor is made of ice. I wouldn't have been hit once on a normal floor) I also haven't missed my shield at all since I burnt it (on purpose of course)

4. On the rare occasion you DO run out of hearts, it just puts you right back at the entrance to that room. What's the point?

5. Holy shit I hate waggle so much. After three years, the novelty of the Wii has run out, and the waggle of Twilight Princess I thought was so awesome is just annoying. It's not like it's tiring or anything, but it doesn't respond 100% of the time (don't get me started on the spin attack. The nunchuk has the worst motion sensing ever.) just let me push a button, jeez.

Despite all these flaws, and this being the second easiest Zelda game to do a 3 heart run on (first being Phantom Hourglass. I only died when I stopped paying attention on the boat.) it's still a great game. Probably my least favorite in the series, but it's still fun, and even addictive sometimes. I just wish Nintendo would put difficulty options in their games, so I could play where everything hurts at least a full heart of damage if I wanted to.

Also, a positive thing is that the wolf doesn't annoy me nearly as much as it did the first time around. Dunno why.

[Matt-Sama]

I wish they had difficulty levels.

[kirbykiller4]

I bought it on the gamecube because as i said before,a right handed link is blasphemy.

But yeah, if I recall the only enemy that did 3 hearts was the big goblin with the axe.

And the fire temple boss was crap,you could kill him so quickly that you didn't even see all his attacks.

[Dark Hamsterlord]

Holy crap, Zant, what?

Zant has always been my favorite boss of Twilight Princess, and he still is, but he's even easier than I thought.

I never died on him before now (and even now, it was because I was being stupid with the iron boots at one part) and you know how he has different phases, where he imitates the old bosses? When you die, it puts you back on the phase you're on, instead of the beginning. That's just stupid. (Also, in the last phase, he only does 1 quarter of a heart of damage, and half a heart with the spin.)

Also, Kirbykiller4, I agree. The boss of the Goron Mines is by far the easiest in the game.

EDIT: Beat it. Ganon is way too easy. I didn't even have a fairy, yet I did it on my first try. I didn't even use the fishing rod trick during the final phase to distract him.
