5 reasons why Twilight Princess will be on Cube
February 25th, 2006
Fellow blogger/reader dxprog is tired of the rumors that Twilight Princess will not be on Cube. He is SO tired of hearing this that he put together 5 reasons why the game will definitely be on the Cube. Check out his article below, and make sure to click over to his blog and check it out.
Im going to break from the formula today and talk about an issue thats been driving me insane lately. Here goes: Zelda: Twilight Princess will not be a Revolution game for crying out loud! Why? Here we go:
1) Firstly, people have been preordering this thing (the game) since before the Revolution was anything more than a name. Thatd be a lot of ticked people when it came down to the wire and suddenly the game is for Rev. A lot of fivers thrown out the window for those who dont want to spend the extra couple hundred.
2) A quote from series creator Shigeru Miyamoto states that this will be the last Zelda game as youve known it. Obviously he was talking about how the new controller is going to affect future games. The switch over to Rev and a new control scheme would fly in the face of that comment which also leads us to
3) They have a working demo, for crying in poo! A GameCube one. For use with a standard controller. Which theyve been parading around the States, too
.
4) Nintendo keeps explicitly denying that the game will be on the Rev or that itll even have special Rev-unlockable features. Now Nintendo doesnt usually lie. They might say odd, mysterious things or say nothing at all, but when they talk its usually the truth. Heres the Reggie-Man himself saying so.
5) Finally, itll work on the Rev because of the GC backwards compatibility. So people could pick up both, or those who didnt want/couldnt get a Rev would still be satisfied. Its not like sales would be hurt in any way (quite the opposite in fact).
So there you have it. Quit being stupid, okay?
