Posted December 22, 2005 http://www.gamesradar.com/news/default.asp?pagetypeid=2&articleid=38489&subsectionid=2504 NGC has confirmed or at least pretty sure that TP will be released on the gamecube, but will take full advantage of the revolution controller... The delay was supposidly to add the new features. They also said the UK rev launch will be late 2006. Yay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 22, 2005 I've said this so many times Just glad it's finaly true Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 22, 2005 I don't know what to make of it. You really think nintendo would allow an unofficial UK magazine to be the first to break this big news? I bought NGC for years until I finally realised the internet was much quicker with the news, so what gives? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 22, 2005 Leaks that's what... IGN has had a few leaks, and so I would expect NGC to have some. Besides remember NGC reporting that capcom would release Resi Evil DS, but most believed it was fake? Well it wasn't and this was a month or so before any site :p.

Posted December 22, 2005 I hope they're updating the graphics, the version I played in August has good graphics for the GC but I wouldn't want to see them on a next-gen console. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 22, 2005 aren't NGC future, and future = official nintendo magazine.... so it makes sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 22, 2005 I dont believe the magazine till Nintendo say so. Also there are rumours that Zelda:TP is going to be out in April and the Rev in November. Would you wait that long just see how the game will play and control like on the rev? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 22, 2005 NGC is a very, very reliable magazine, and I am more then willing to take this as the truth. My only hang up is that I won't be able to read it for myself until I can get back to my college in-box in January. Bah! EDIT: Now the news has been allowed to sink, and after having a quick brush over the scans, I am now positively wetting mysef with excitment. Seriously, I am drowing in my own piss. Great stuff.

Posted December 22, 2005 the only thing im thinking about is that Link will now becom a right hander for the majority of people. Link is a left handed guy. also i just thought something. i was eading the mag article and, myiamoto said that link was the 'link' between the player and the world or something, now its the link between the two systems. eh eh. maybe not Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 22, 2005 Wow I really hope this is true and from a marketing standpoint offering full Revo control support is the best thing they can do to sell the console, so there's a high chance of it being true - I sure am excited. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 22, 2005 Until Nintendo confirm this, I can't see it being more than speculation. I mean, the front of the magazine screams 'Revolution Release Date Revealed! Exclusive!!' at you, and inside, it says, 'Well.. It's the end of 2006 sometime... Probably November.' As if we couldn't have guessed that ourselves. If you want my opinion, NGC are just hedging their bets and making a few informed guesses to fill out their 2006 preview. Because, let's face it, there aren't exactly many confirmed facts about what Nintendo's doing after March next year yet, are there? And a preview of Zelda with 'confirmed' release dates and Revolution compatability sounds a lot more exciting that, 'Play Animal Crossing and Partners In Time months after the Americans! Wario Ware: Twisted - Out over a year late! We might even get Electroplankton, Chibi Robo and Metroid Prime Pinball if we're lucky'! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 22, 2005 aren't NGC future, and future = official nintendo magazine.... so it makes sense. nah, i think Future publish the official PS2 magazine but not Nintendo's official one, just NGC. Anyway... this is awsome! I hope they get a chance to squeeze in some more rev-exclusive content like spanglier graphics and downloadable content. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 22, 2005 Well to be honest all though this is good news and if this is the reason for the delay then its i suppose a reasonable reason to do so. I just can't see how this 'incredible' new feature makes up for however many months it will be postponed for. If this is the reason for the delay it isn't that good of one, although it is good for all future revolution owners not everybody will be able to take advantage of the features. For gamecube owners this isn't too exciting and for them the features won't be useful at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope they get a chance to squeeze in some more rev-exclusive content like spanglier graphics and downloadable content. Nintendo UK have just announced a deal with future to start publishing NOM with them from january! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 22, 2005 NOM will be with future for the feb issue i think? Also this rev contoller support is probably going to feel very tacked on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 22, 2005 I don't know why you would think that considering the Metriod Prime 2 REV demo was made in two weeks. Though the controls weren't super polished, they were damn good for TWO WEEKS. Also, this is the biggest team ever to make a Zelda game, so I wouldn't be surprized if they had a part of the team focusing on REVO controls. Plus, even if it were to come out in April, that's 7 months after the delay announcement. 7 months is definetly enough time to add another control scheme and polish the entire game. Hell, some full games are made in 7 months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 22, 2005 Reading those scans has really made me even more excited about this game. I think I'm going to watch the trailers now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 22, 2005 I dont read NGC instead I read NOM. so i dont know how reliable NGC are! But i wish this is true...it would be awesome!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 22, 2005 the only thing im thinking about is that Link will now becom a right hander for the majority of people. Link is a left handed guy. lol finally something in my life that will be suited to my natural left-handedness!!!! so for the sake of all leftees lets hope they keep link the same lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 23, 2005 This is fantastic! A Zelda game that will use Revo controls at launch! Id love to hear about the ideas of how things will be done. I was thinking like if Link jumped and grabbed hold of the rop and started to swing, you could make him swing by moving the remote forward and back and then pressing A or something to let go. of course then there is the sword swinging idea alot talk about but what about if you held the remote diangonal like a bow. If it switched to first person and where ever you moved the remote like a bow, Links bow would move in the same direction. of course then the hook shot which could be an obvious idea of just point and shoot.

Posted December 23, 2005 Another thought, if this is true, and I still don't see any reason for us to think it is, would it be the first game in which Link is ambidextrous? Or would we have to hold the Revolution remote in our left hand (the hand Link usually uses for his sword)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
