"Twighlight Princess - Cube vs Wii"

Out of interest, how different are the two versions?

They didn't stick to the idea of making a single game compatible on both formats then?

might i add i love the wii version just the way it is.

I am Playing Zelda: Twilight Princess and I am about 67 hours into it without using any cheats... however forgetting to shut it off a few times. I am wondering that now I am looking for 2 more mirror shards it says that one is in the ancient wood and the other in the shy. I understand the sky part but I thought that i was in the ancient wood and I am realizing that maybe I am not. Is the ancient wood the one where to take a golden cucoo to get there??? and if it is what do I do once there. I am have been in the woods forever and it is starting to tick me off. Any help???

Ahhh yes your right. It is for those annoying purple mist bits.

The little white ones deal with poison, don't they?

Thats funny I did exactly the same thing. The Pikmin games are definitely well worth getting though to be fair it does get quite repetative as the second game is not far different from the first. Just new super strong purple pikmin and the little white ones but I forget what they do.

Ah, okay.

I was thinking about leaving it until I finish all the other stuff lined up for the cube, then deciding which to buy.
But by that time the cube one will probably be even tougher to get hold of.

But I don't think I want a wii, so I might try to pick it up now.

That and the two pikmins (I traded in the first one last time. I think I bought something crap). Then my cube will be ready to slide into dusty retirement.

dont kid yourself. The levels are the same etc just reversed but the graphics are far better on the Wii as the Wii takes advantage of the ability to produce dynamic lighting. The colour pallet is greater leading to less obvious lines on the characters. Even the long grass in the Wii version seems to sway and move as if reacting to the wing where as it doesn't on the cube. OK these are not overwhelming differences but I would say that the culmination of these things leads to a better game experiance not to mention the controles which obviously mean it feels more like fishing and rowing etc. I would wait if you are deff going to get a Wii when they become available again but if you are unsure then get the cube version as it is still the same game in essance and it is a good game.

Awesome, so graphically it's all the same?

I know, it wasn't the best idea to flip the whole game. The locations are in all the wrong places now.

And the Wii version is a 'mirror mode' of the GC version... Just so Link could hold his sword in the correct hand (compared to the player who would, in general, hold the Wiimote in their right). They could've just flipped the Link model, but no, they flipped the entire game! :-S

But yeah, I haven't played either, and I don't really know whether to try and get the Cube version or wait (possibly a very long time) until I get a Wii.
