Twighlight Princess on Gamecube

[big guy]

does it come out today? IGN lists today as the release date but neither Gamestop or EBGames says anything about it and Gamestop hasn't called me to say that it's in. just wondering if anybody knows anything about it.

I would think it would be coming out tomorrow since new games tend to be sold on Tuesdays in my experience. I don't know for sure, though, because I've been happily playing Twilight Princess for almost a month. :p

I already beat Twilight Princess.

[Dark Jaguar]

But have you mastered the game?

[EdenMaster]

You beat it? I'm only in the second dungeon!

Granted, I did put in a FF XII binge to finish it up before getting into TP, but goddamn man, beat it already??

[Dark Jaguar]

I'm barely in the game, same with FFXII, and with all the games I've got going on some time now. Not enough spare time, and a lot of that I tend to use just "lounging about" not doing much of anything, and when I finally do get around to actually playing a game, no matter how much fun I'm having, for some reason I just lose interest all too quickly and "move on to something else". Not really sure what that's all about.

35 hours, give or take, for me to finish TP.

geez GR, way to blow through the game. :/

all poes, all heart containers, all lures, all insects, all special moves, 100 hours and 36 minutes. Thank you Nintendo. I'm doing it again now. :D

[big guy]

well. hopefully Gamestop calls me about it tomorrow. although i think my girlfriend will hate me once i pick it up.

And Nintendo is apparently already hard at work on the next Wii installment, this time one that isn't just a port.

I'll say it now. Reviews of the Gamecube version seem to indicate that including support for a Gamecube controller in the Wii version may not have been such a bad idea. Apparently some things work better, though not the aiming. My guess is those "some things" include using the sword and spin attack, which really were tacked on and not nearly as thought out to excellence as fishing, aiming, and other mini-games. However, if the Wii is anything like the XBox 360, maybe in the future we'll start up the game only to see the message "an update is available for this game, do you wish to update?" and the game will have those controls patched in.

I'll get a copy of this in a few weeks... well, if I can find one anyway...

[big guy]
