It’s funny reading this article in 2011, because all the comments say the Wii will fail too. The Wii knew it’s market, knew what it wanted to be. It wanted to be casual and family-friendly, and offered games for people of all ages. Also, it was incredibly innovative with the Wiimote and all and used the ‘blue ocean’ strategy, something the cube couldn’t do.

As great as the Zelda series has been for Console Video gaming overall, I just didn’t like either the graphics or the dungeon crawling and thought some of the sections were too darn hard to overcome, to the point of frustration, in the previous versions of Zelda.

I am mostly a retro gamer, but I like Windwaker and Princess far more than the older Zelda games.

It’s nice to see the GameCube’s failures enumerated by a fan of the system. It’s true, the GameCube has a lot going for it, and a lot of potential, but Nintendo was stuck between trying to hold onto their family-friendly image and playing catch up to a generation of gamers who were growing up and looking for something to match their maturity levels.

The shame of the whole situation is, with the Wii’s success, and being 100% backwards compatible with all GameCube games and accessories (with the notable and unfortunate exception of the Game Boy Player), Nintendo should be pushing the fact that there is a huge library of quality, classic, and cheap games out there for it, some of which truly broke the mold. Instead we’ve got Wii owners who have no idea what the GameCube is, or that incredible exclusives like Wind Waker, Eternal Darkness, MGS: The Twin Snakes, and Rogue Leader exist and are fully compatible with their little white waggle box.

I love each game, but I have to say that there are a few aspects of Twilight Princess I feel need to be discussed. The Arbiter’s Grounds has got to be the best dungeon in any Zelda game, reasons being… It has the best boss fight ever, one of the coolest miniboss fights, one of the best atmospheres, fantastic homage to the forest temple in OoT, and is one of the few dungeons in a Zelda game that is heavily involved with the story. It simply was the most epic thing for any Zelda game in my opinion cause it actually felt like it was a dungeon. Why? Because like the Shadow Temple, they actually were dungeons in the story. Also I have to say that TP was easy, but WW was even easier. It was practically void of difficulty.

Wind waker far over Twilight princess for me, the graphics were never a problem on the Wind waker, and the side quests on twilight princess are just collecting things, Twilight princess may have lots of moves, but they make the battle so much easier then they already were. (which, by the way, were very easy) The Windwaker was better in every aspect and was a brilliant game, Nintendo’s best.
