Re: New GC Zelda details!

MY GOD! This Mario World comic!

"Pipe down, pip-squeak! It's the princess' play time!"
"Humongus pipe towers are popping up everywhere!"
"Totally tubular, man! Popping pillars of pipe? PREPOSTEROUS!"
"They've even uprooted the palace petunias!"
"Stand your ground, you shrinking shrooms!"
"It looks like a Koopa convention!"

THE WHOLE COMIC IS LIKE THIS!

Thanks, King.

My favorite part was always when they were in the cake.

And call me Loki.

Yeah, this was in an E3 thread, I think.

God, that's a lame sub-title... Twilight Princess

Re: New GC Zelda details!

Yeah, I hope they don't keep that title.

Re: New GC Zelda details!

I don't see anything wrong with it. Maybe it's because I'm not American.

Re: New GC Zelda details!

Maybe we should wait to see WHAT'S IN THE GAME before we say the title is lame and doesn't fit.

Mild Spoilers Ahead!


Taken from IGN.

""-According to Eiji Aonuma, Twilight Princess is set after Ocarina of Time and before Wind Waker. This has of course created a bit of controversy, as the storylines from Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker do not seamlessly connect, as purists have pointed out. Still, Nintendo has never gone out of its way to chronologically align the series, and has instead preferred simply to say that with every game there is a new Link and a new Zelda.

-In Twilight Princess, Link is about 16 or 17-years-old, according to Eiji Aonuma.

-The video of course confirms that Link can change into a wolf. However, it does not appear that gamers will be able to trigger the change whenever they desire. Rather, the transformation occurs depending upon where Link goes.

-In Twilight Princess, Hyrule is under attack by a mysterious force known as the Twilight Realm. The shadowy alternate dimension is spreading throughout the land, sucking anyone or anything in its path through.
When Link enters the Twilight Realm, he automatically changes into a wolf. According to Eiji Aonuma, humans cannot exist in their current form in the Twilight Realm. When they cross over, they change into animals, which can exist in the alternate dimension.

-When Link enters the Twilight and changes into a wolf, he encounters a mysterious new female character named Midna. She dons a magical mask that covers one eye and rides on top of wolf Link. The two are inseparable in the Twilight Realm.

-When Link clears an area in the Twilight Realm, it changes back to normal Hyrule and he returns to human form.

-Midna also undergoes a change when she exits the Twilight Realm. "If you go with the strictest definition of exist then yes, she can exist in normal Hyrule," explains Eiji Aonuma. "But there is a certain kind of subtlety to that which I can't reveal at this point in time." Some gamers have speculated that Midna is in fact Link's shadow, which comes to life in Twilight.

-Ganon is in the game and very likely the main antagonist.

-The creatures and look of the Twilight Realm will have sci-fi elements to them, according to Eiji Aonuma. However, he says, the title will still be fantasy based.

-Link will be able to combine items in the game. He combines bombs and arrows to create bomb arrows in an older trailer. In the latest footage, he carries a lantern and oil, presumably to refill the light-giving device when it runs out.

-The game is much bigger in scope than Ocarina of Time, which it strives to better in every way. Because of this, Link will actually need to use Epona to cross very long distances as it would simply take way too long to travel on foot.

-Eiji Aonuma says that with Twilight Princess, locations -- presumably structures and temples -- will be enormous, truly dwarfing Link in scale.
Link can use a canoe to traverse waterways.

-The hero can dive and swim underwater, which suggests there will be a Water Temple.

-According to Eiji Aonuma, Link might be able to fly across great distances on the back of a still-unrevealed winged beast. We're hoping for a dragon.

-The character will gain more weapons and items than ever before. Some will be returning weapons and items while others will be brand new to the series.

-Link will be able to fish again and also use chickens to float.

-There will be more dungeons and boss battles in the game than in any other Zelda.

-Zelda is in the game. She is the cloaked figure seen in videos. She wears this mourner's robe to mourn what she sees as the death of Hyrule at the hands of the Twilight Realm.

-Zelda may be able to transform into an animal, according to Eiji Aonuma.

-There will not be any significant time travel in the game, as there was in Ocarina of Time. That seems to indicate that Link will probably stay the same age and not grow older.

-The game will run in progressive scan and Dolby Pro Logic II, but not 16x9 widescreen mode.

-The title will feature orchestrated music as well as MIDI songs. ""

The winged transport, item combination, and orchestrated music has me very excited.

Zelda is such a drama queen.
