The other night, I stayed over my cousin's house, and he had rented Twilight Princess for the GameCube. It really P***ed my off, becuase i thought I knew the game like the back of my hand. God, everything was backwards, and I got bored. :P The graphics werent a whole lot different. The water was less vibrant, and Epona didnt have the nightly glow. Also, I didnt know this, but for a quick mount, you can get a running start, and right when you get behind Epona, press A to mount up, and she will take off quicker!
You mean, everything is in the right direction.
And also you can quickly dismount, by holding the R button down and press A.
The fun of the canon map! Lefties unite and all that jazz. I love my GameCube Twilight Princess. It was originally slated to be a GameCube title when we first got whiff of a release date, way back when, anyways.
So actually, it's the Wii that is backwards. Well, Its how I was intoduced to it, so the GameCube is backwards for me :P
I played on my friend's Wii, and it seemed more fun. So now I want it on Wii, gah.
I'm more a purist, I guess. xD That, and they changed it for rightys, and.... I'm not right-handed. So... I feel like an (technical term for a donkey). D: I dunno why, but I do.
I wish they had an option to switch from right to left-handed. I could go out and buy the GC version, but... I 'unno.
I like Gamecube the best, it would take me a long time to get the controls of Wii mastered, and by the itme I did I would have completed the Gamecube version.
Really I cannot see what is enjoyable about the GC Zelda, I love everything about the Wii Zelda. It adds a whole new level of play to the game in my opinion. I do not know many that have played Zelda on the Wii who thinks it was better on the GC.
I agree with Bgrugby. The controls were actually pretty easy to get down. Besides, it was a better experience with the Wii. I'll remember it as the first game I got for the Wii. :)
Yeah, they weren't very hard at all. The stab took a little while to get down, though. xD But that's because I... usually jump attack or spin attack. >w< -should be ashamed-

You realize you had to play Zelda on the Gamecube for a few years, right? Did you not enjoy it for some reason?
Still, the Gamecube is more my style.

It's remarkable how adaptation works, isn't it? :P
The Wii controls aren't hard at all. I figured everything out in a couple minutes, without watching anyone, being told anything, and already past all the in-game tutorials.
Meh I haven't tried the GC version, but I doubt it is much different. I think it depends what you tried first, so say you got the wii version first the GC will feel weird, but if you got the GC first the Wii will feel totally different.
It's the same game at the core I guess.

The Wii version feels unnatural, because Link wields his sword with the wrong hand. Also, there's no C-camera (making the battles less fun). I bought the Wii version first, but still prefer the GC version.
When Wiilda is released, I'm unlikely to ever again play the Wii version of TP. :-*
Well your one of the few people I have ever talked to that prefers the GC version. And I like Link holding the sword with his right hand as it is more enjoyable swinging it then having to use it with my left hand.
and you can ailman
bgrugby, that's what gets me. I'm left-handed, and there's no option to switch it around on the Wii version of Twilight Princess! I know why they did that, but still. Makes me lean to the GameCube version more.

I agree, I was expecting the game to have an option where you could choose which hand you wanted to use like in Wii Sports. But I guess it would screw up the way the fighting in the game and you would also have to switch the entire map like the GC version.
I wish they'd rigged up a system wherein only the sword hand changed (selected at start), not the entire map. But it was originally made for the GameCube... I hope the next Wii Zelda has that option.

It's the same thing for me. >w< But... I guess I'll have to live. x; It's nice to know that they had to flip it because of the fact that even the enemies and stuff get affected by your sword hand... I don't think it was like that in the other games. xD;
