    Default For those of us living in the old.

    Gamecube Twilight Princess is in stores today at very limited quantities. I'm heading to Toys R' Us after work and attempting to secure a copy.

    Anyone else going to make an attempt to hunt one down?

    I'm ignoring the GCN version completely.

    If the GameCube version had 16x9 support, I would have preordered it months ago and would be playing it right now instead of studying for finals. But it doesn't, so instead I sit here, suffering in silence, until I can justify spending about 350 dollars on a Wii. And that probably won't happen until Smash Bros. comes out.

    After playing on the wii, theres no way I will have the will power to play it on the gamecube...it just wouldn't be the same game.
    If I had a nickel everytime someone asked a stupid question I'd be rich and wouldn't waste my time on these stupid forums

    That's part of the beauty of it. Yeah, the Wii version is a port of the same game. But the way you play them is quite different, and the orientation of everything is completely flipped around, it will feel like you never played it before. Nevermind the story bits

    What's this limited quantities you speak of? Don't tell me Nintendo actually decided to limit the number they would release?

    If that's the case, then unless I can track down a copy, I may never bother with the game. If I can get my hands on it for the Cube then I will, but I have no plans to buy a Wii now, nor in the forseeable future (by that I mean ever as far as it stands now).

    Yeah, are the versions different?? For the Wii I heard you can use the remote and slash it like a sword, but you can't do that on the Gamecube. What's the point and making it for both??? They should have just made it for one or the other..
    If I were a Final Fantasy Boss, I would be named something cool like Super-Ultra-Foxtrot-Omega Weapon or something cool like that...

    Is there any difference story wise, not really money wise....It just makes as much sense as making a game for both 360 and XBOX, when the one just has better graphics and costs more.. Are there any other differences?? Maybe the Wii version gives you a reason to buy other than accidently flinging your remote at your dog knocking out a window or something..

    JKTrix pointed it out above, and from what I've read it's true...

    Nintendo decided to mirror the Wii version of the game because they blundered by not considering that the majority of players would be swinging the wiimote/sword with their right hand. They initially had Link left-handed, and that's how he is in the GC version. Apparently flipping the entire game for the Wii was easier than just flipping Link(?!?!?!)...so yeah, the left and right sides of the screen are reversed in the two versions. Apparently.

    The exact plan I have. And probably at that time I'll get Starlight Princess and the rest of the "good" games that are out there at the time.
