Well, that is what happened.

Perhaps because Wind Waker was a more conventional Zelda game while TP is a bit off the beaten path (like Majora's Mask)? How far have you gotten in the game?

I can't wait to play Mario64 again! That was honestly one of the best games I've ever played. Talk about fun! I even like it a tad more than Mario Sunshine.
Get Ocarina of Time, Hector. Seriously. It's SUCH a good game.

I won't have to, my little brother owns it already...
Maybe I'll use this break between semesters to play it...

Aye in the beginning a lot of people were complaining about the graphics and how it looked sub-par for a Wii game. When it came out for both GC and the Wii. Porting it to the Wii was kinda a last minute idea since the game was mostly developed for the GC. I susepct the only reason they did it was to try it out with the Wiimote.

I honestly didn't know how much it had caught on in my mind until I played OoT again for two minutes and wanted to swing around my 64 controller. Before that I would have said it was just "ok". But now I say it's brilliant.

That's my suspicion as well; it's really too bad that it wasn't written at the outset for the wii.

I just got it today as a belated Christmas present from the hubby! yea! (I wish I had a wii but the game looks great on gamecube too) I've been playing it for about 3 hours now and I forced myself to take a break.

The idea of making it compatible with the wii came too late, but now they have a head start for the next Zelda game.

I finished it 2 days I ago I think. I'm not sure how I feel about this game overall...it ahd it's good points but several other Zelda games surpassed it in other areas (like music). It seems like a mix between Ocarina and Majora to me. But it was good overall. I'll have to play it again and find out all the secrets (as I got help 3-4 times from the internet shame on me!)
