Seems Twilight Princess on the Wii will NOT in fact support using the Gamecube controller configuration.
If you ask me, there is no reason at all for this feature to be lacking. From reviews I've read, the Wii support in that game is pretty substandard anyway and a lot of things work better on a Gamecube controller. That may have changed, but give us the choice, and NO, I don't mean give us the choice by releasing a worse copy of the game on the Gamecube and saying "you can always BUY that as well", I mean give us the choice in the best version to give it the best of all worlds.
Hopefully between now and release there will be enough complaints that they will add GCN controller support to the Wii version as it should be (there is no reason, NO reason, they can't include something already in the Gamecube version in the Wii version, ALL things of GCN should be in Wii..., don't make me come in there!). If not that, maybe the game can be patched with proper support later. I don't want to see reviews of the Wii version saying "an otherwise better version marred by poor implementation of Wii control" or "stick with the Gamecube version". Don't do this Nintendo!
Also apparently some unique games will also be downloadable to the system through "virtual console".

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
