Notable for being the first Zelda game launched with a Nintendo platform, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for Wii is an enhanced version of the GameCube title with a new control scheme. Players guide the elfin Link with both the Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers as he fights to save Hyrule from a shadowy new threat, one that has cast a crippling darkness over the once vibrant land and its surrounding areas. Link has a few new powers up his tunic's sleeve, however, as he can transform into a wolf with the help of a mysterious animal friend named Midna.

Familiar elements from previous Zelda games have made the transition to Twilight Princess, albeit with new twists afforded by the motionsensor controls. As players explore puzzlefilled dungeons, they will shake, point, pull back, and tilt their controllers to throw boomerangs, fire arrows, launch a hookshot, swing a sword, and more. Link can even continue his battles on horseback, running at full gallop into packs of mounted enemies. Twilight Princess also includes several optional minigames, from canoeing to herding to fishing. The latter has players flicking the Wii Remote to cast the line and then jerking it back to reel the fish in. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide

    Pros: graphics are top-notch, the storyline pulls you in, controls are so easy to master

    Cons: None as far as I can tell

    This game is definitely going to be in the running for Game of the Year. When I was on line waiting to purchase this game when it first came out, I knew I had something special, but when I started playing it was more then special. This game basically... takes everything you loved from Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask and enhances it to a whole new level of gaming. The story is just so creative and draws you in. It's something you've never seen in a game before. Unless of course you wanna talk about Metroid Prime 2 going from light world to dark world and back, but that's a whole other review. lol. I think this game does touch on that concept, but is different to where you can't really compare the two. I'm not going to go into the storyline at all for those of you who haven't played the game yet because I myself have only gotten up to Hyrule field for the first time. However, from what I have played, this game is worth it just for the story alone. Graphically, it doesn't disappoint. Everything is the way it should be and looks just as good as any Xbox or PS3 game. The sounds, as all of you Zelda fanatics know, is what makes a Zelda game. From the opening theme to the cave music to when you pick up a rupee to when you find a hidden key or button for a door. It's all here and sounds amazing as it always does. The controls are the easiest Nintendo could have possibly made them. A flick of your wrist swings the sword. A small rotation of the stick does a spinning sword attack. Z-targeting makes all that even easier. It can't be no easier then that until they come up with a mind control controller. :-P That's all I really have to say about this game. For all you lazy people out there, the Wii is definitely not for you. Read more Less

    Pros: Great Graphics and the best game yet for Wii.

    Cons: Horrible sounds, the people dont talk.

    The game is great but its way too long and challengeing. You gotta be a huge zelda fan to like it.

    The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess - Wii

    It's a classic Zelda adventure in traditional form, and while it might not bring anything new to the party, it's a good homecoming and an entertaining time machine that will take you back all the way to 1987. Read more
