Nintendo reveals that the GameCube and Wii versions of Twilight Princess will now be sold separately. Control details inside.
Nintendo announced that the GameCube/Wii version of Zelda: TP is no more. It will be replaced by two separate retail packages, one for GameCube and one for Wii. This shouldn't cause much problem for most as both games will be launching alongside Wii.
The game was also demonstrated extensively to show how the Wii controller is used to enhance the gameplay. Surprisingly, the sword is controlled using the accelerometer in the analog attachment, not the remote. The B button will also initiate a basic sword attack. The remote will be used to control the menus, camera, and distance weapons and items (bow, hookshot and boomerang so far). For menu purposes, Navi the endearing fairy from Ocarina of Time, makes a return flying to the location you point to when navigating menus.
Fishing was also shown in a video reel and it seemed to use the controller as you might expect. The remote appeared to be used to cast the line and a "reeling" motion with the analog attachment reeled the fish in.
The graphics reportedly look about the same as they did last year at a glance.
