I've read somewhere that there was supposed to be some additional content in WW, especially towards the end of the game but that it was cut out of the final version and the whole game was shortened and simplified. I'm just wondering what exactly was this extra content supposed to be? and why was it ultimately left out?

it had to do with the [spoiler] late game Triforce shard hunt [/spoiler] . Apparently, in the Japanese version, there's an extra step required to get each of them. I'm kind of glad it was left out...

Well it's nothing new I guess because they removed 'Tetra's Trackers' from The Legend of Zelda - The Four Swords Adventures. Why do they do this and stil charge us higher prices than Japan?

well....originally they were planing to put in two more temples in WW.....but because the clock was ticking for it's release date.....they cut those temples out and replaced them with that lame triforce fetch quest.*which almost completely killed the ending part of the game for me!!*

It was rushed so some content was removed, or left out.

i think i read somewhere that they cut 2 dungeons, 1 of the first half, and 1 of the second half.

The first deleted dungeon would had given you one of the magic orbs, instead, they just had Jabu giving it to you. The second dungeon deleted was replaced with the triforce fetch quest.

maybe that's why WW felt less satisfying than Oot
