Gamecube or Wii?

i haven't got a Wii, only a Gamecube - but even if i had both consoles, i'd probably end up getting the Gamecube version. i know they're both Nintendo consoles, but i want to stay loyal to the machine that the game was first announced on - plus i want to play through a new Zelda game using a standard controller.

but the choice is really up to you - the Wii version has 16:9 widescreen support. plus i imagine some of the aiming of weapons will be easier and more accurate using the Wii's remote - especially on the back of Epona.

Super Famitsu Weekly actually gave the GC version a touch more in their review score, this means nothing to me as i will be getting both versions just for the love of it, but personally i know that i will love the Wii version, i go with Miyamoto san on this subject. LS

The GC version will be mirrored to the Wii's although it will be seriously lacking all of the extras aside from the main adventure, bonus games, side quest etc, while Wii owners will be playing for months you could well have finished and have not much to else to do-  the dual layer Wii discs allow for this expansion in the game, unless the GC version comes out on a few discs, i doubt very much it will have the same extras, or perhaps each version will have their own (- a good reason for those getting both):)

Right Now, i will get the GC version, because i cant wait another minute for playing TP, because is seems there are not going to be Wii until February or March, but at some point i will get the Wii and TP, and SSBB and Metroid Corruption, and Super Mario Strikers, etc. . .

And about the extra features, the GC and the Wii version are going to have exactly the same things, the only diferences are the control and that the Wii versions is mirrored. And about the extra downloadable levels, items and other stuff, Theres still nothing official about this matter.

If you want my opinion, i will buy the Wii because is a new console, a new great game, a new and refreshing controller, a new experience and visually looks a little bit better. 

Some of the reasons stated here for getting the GC version are laughable.:lol: LS

Just make sure you get both eventually if you have any sense, the versions are mirrored so there is that slight twist as well, also htere may be others that we all dont know about until the GC version is released, but it is highly likely that the Wii version is making use of the far greater capacity for more than just graphics and sound.

I'm gonna get it on the GC, cuz I don't have any Wii and I'm not gonna buy one anytime soon:Psplinter_girl88

This is a sensible reason for getting the GC version , the other sensible reason is wanting to own it is seeing it in action ! LS

I bought the cube version for the following reasons. 1. I don't have the money for the wii..jet. 2. I dont think the new controller(s) will work for me in a zelda game.. 3.I dont have alot of money..hmm i already said that didn't I? I bought the cube specially for this game a week ago..NOW ISN'T THAT TRUE DEDICATION??:P
