Official "The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess" Thread
This is the official Zelda: Twilight Princess thread! This upcoming Zelda game will be released for both GameCube and Wii on the same day (Wii's unknown launch date). The Wii is just a port of the GC version that takes advantage of the Wiimote features, adds widescreen, and has slightly better textures. However, it will not have the full 360 camera control that the GC version has. Anyways, here is where you post news on Twilight Princess, new screenshots/pics, or just talk about how this game will rock. Afterall, Nintendo is trying everything to make this game surpass Ocarina of Time. It already has more dungeons, weapons/items, and sidequests than Ocarina of Time. What more could you ask for?

Game Info: For though of you who are behind on Twilight Princess info, the game takes place a few decades after Ocarina of Time. You are a new Link that has grown up as a rancher, therefor, he is an expert horse-rider, and even knows combat. Of coarse, creatures come into his home village and kidnap two of his friends. Link starts his quest trying to find them, but there is something else. There is a Twilight Realm that is slowly sucking away Hyrule, destroying anything in its path. The Twilight Realm is just like a virus that is slowly spreading throughout Hyrule. However, when Link enters this Twilight, he transforms into a wolf. In his wolf form, he meets a strange female cat-like creature named Midna. She has her own agenda, and uses Link to fullfill her duties. She rides Wolf Link's back in the Twilight Realm, but in the regular world, she is Link's shadow. Not much more is known about the game.
