Zelda: Twilight Princess Discussion (SPOILERS: BEWARE)

[ShadowV7]

I don't either,i'm just going by estimate just now untill official confirmation.

[Tellyn]

If it's 200 pounds then they have misled us. I hope it's 150 and the games are around 35.

[Stocka]

Whatever the price is I'm sure it won't cost more than £200 for a Wii + Zelda.

The thing you have to take into consideration is that they might do bundles. I.E. Wii, controller, headset, memory cards/sd cards, etc. Then, games.

I'm all... yay for bundles

 

I'd buy the one with 2 wiimote controllers included and the extra acessory to play DVD's (not that i'll use it), a game included would be nice too.

[Fierce_LiNk]

At the moment, i'm definitely going to get Zelda and Wii on launch day. Not sure what other accessories and games i will get though.

[Guest Stefkov]

Im gonna get the bundle with the better game probbably of course or just the dearest one.

hopefully one bundle will be a wii, 2 wiimotes, headset*, DVD playback thing, Classic controller, Zelda, Mario galaxy, 2 free VC downloads.

all for maybe £299.99/£329.99

When you go to twilight princess for gamecube, the screenshots they show are still with the black&white look for the twilight world. There are no screenshots for the Wii version, but we've all seen those screenshots with the bloom effects.

So I think that the bloom effects are only for Wii. Well, that, or they were a bit lazy and didn't update the screenshots for the gamecube version.

 

Any thoughts?

[Hellfire]

Those images are old.

[Hero-of-Time]

So I was driving home from work this morning with my Zelda cd blasting in the car which game me the idea of asking this.

 

What is your favourite Overworld theme on a Zelda game?

 

For me its the one from A Link To The Past as its the classic Zelda tune from the original game but better. Plus it was the first Zelda game I ever played so it always brings back good memories. Sure Majoras Mask had a version in of it but it wasnt the same.

 

A close second would be Wind Wakers tune. It just seemed so right skimming across the ocean with that music playing and the way it faded in and out when an enemy attacked you was genius. This song helped alot when searching for the Triforce pieces.

[myster0n]

Those images are old.

Yes they are.

My question was : did they use the old images because they couldn't be bothered to update them, or because the GC version will use the old graphics and the new ones that use bloom are only for Wii ?

[Dcubed]

Probably just didn't bother to update them. The E3 trailer was from the GCN version and it looked the same as the Wii version graphics wise.

[DCK]

The answer is that it's not using bloom. The only difference between Wii and GCN is controls and some parts of the level design; graphics wise there's widescreen and maybe 60 fps but that's it.

 

The effect on that screenshot in the Twilight World is a simpler shader effect that the Cube can do. The Metroid Primes used it too.

[myster0n]

So this means the marketing guys at Nintendo are just a bunch of lazy bastards. Somehow I'm not surprised...

[Emasher]

Don't be a complete fanboy please....

Yeah I absolutely love the Wind Waker Overworld tune, makes me feel all warm inside, as does the Hyrule Field theme.

I don't know about favourite as it all depends on how you feel, but probably Wind Waker.

[myster0n]

Sorry, I shouldn't have called them marketing guys.

[Zell]

My favourite zelda overworld theme is the one from the Link's Awakening... it was the 1st zelda game i ever played, and that tune still brings back memories.

[Raven]

Sorry, I shouldn't have called them marketing guys.

*laughs* touche!

they are anything but marketing guys!

[DCK]

Yeah, me too. It was the only reason why didn't mind the sailing. I'd also always use the Sun's Song to make it day again, because there's no night theme

 

The Majora's Mask overworld theme is a good second.

[Hellfire]

I think my fave is still OoTs, even though WW and MM is a close second. Hearing the Zelda theme replay over and over in ALttP was irritating, even if it's one of the best musics ever created.

[EchoDesiato]

Alttp's Dark Overworld theme is the best piece of music Koji Kondo has ever created.

[FalcoLombardi]

I haven't really read this thread because I'd rather be completely surprised by everything in the game, like I was with OOT.

 

But since you're on the subject of Koji Kondo, I may read it some more.

 

And as for my favorite KK song, it has to be Gerudo Valley.

I would agree with u there. Especially the orchestrated version.
