    Then why isn't it out for GameCube? That's the biggest con for me. :razz:

    Definitely wait for more reviews but you don't think 35 hours is "close to the end"? How many hours are you expecting?

    Nintendo said that we can expect about 80 hours of gameplay.

    I'd be more upset that, if it runs on Gamecube, obviously they're not taking advantage of the 64 MB more RAM or 50% more power in Wii. And as good as it looks already, that's a shame.

    I also dont care for the Ocarina of Time comparisons, as that game was sometimes boring..not as good as SNES Zelda.

    The graphics are the exact same as the gamecube version but it only supports widescreen in the Wii version.

    And yes 35 hours is not enough because there's still only 3 reviews up on gamerankings...

    The graphics are actually entirely flipped on the Wii version. If you compare GC screenshots with Wii shots it will be look reversing them in a mirror. They did this beacuse Link is right handed in the Wii version. Even all the cut scenes are flipped.

    Yeah I forgot about that. It doesn't look noticeable in the town or dungeons but I heard the overworld looks bad because of that.

    Lol that's a funny fix. Maybe they should allow players to choose wether they are left or right handed. Seems to me it disadvantages any left handed players.

    Gerstmann gave Wind Waker a 9.3.

    His main complaints about TP are "IT IS ZELDA AND I'M TIRED OF TRADITIONAL ZELDA GAMEPLAY" ...

    They also won't be taking advantage of the extra space a DVD provides which is a shame. It's still gorgous, just can't help but wonder 'what could have been'

    His opinion seemed valid to me... What really suprised me was how he complained about the Wiimote, saying it was nothing more than a gimmick in Twilight Princess that just emulates button pressing with the swinging of the Wiimote and Nunchuck.
