In a recent interview with Gamepro, Nintendo of America's Senior Vice President of Marketing and Corporate Communications George Harrison mentioned that Twilight Princess will feature downloadable content after release.
Quote:
"downloadable content, such as additional levels" for Twilight Princess sometime following the game's November 19 launch, though nothing has been set in stone at this time as "everyone is still busy trying to make sure the game gets out correctly."
You can read the full article here:

This is really great news, and hopefully is the tip of the iceberg in terms of WiiConnect24's future potential.

I think they are probably doing this because they didn't do the full game with all the stuff they wanted to, that's why they are making this downloadable content which I think it's an exelent idea.

im hoping for some simple 'monkey-ball type' zelda styled multiplayer mini games; arrow shooting (archery), collecting rupees in a certain time limit, etc? And maybe alternative in-game movies? This is assuming i ever manage to complete it.

Hoorah, free content. I'm so glad Nintendo chose to finally implement online.
Although I'm not sure I trust the Wi-Fi in my area; why they didn't include an ethernet port in beyond me.

No, they didn't, you have to use a USB -> ethernet adaptor.

How much do they cost? Im going to hope for the best with my WiFi dongle usb connector thingy (the one that launched around mario Kart DS, for DS WiFi. Presumably this will work? Though i may need to invest in these ethernet wires if it doesnt. though my pc and tv are in differant rooms, so playing smash bros etc online could be a problem.

It'd be awesome if you could just turn on the game after completing it and have one of the villagers or a friend from another city, (Goron or Zora) and they need you to help them out . Not a dungeon but another little sidequest which wasn't there before. It would increase replay value to... a rather large number

Can someone explain how I would play this on my Wii? like I would download it on the internet and would I burn it on a disc or something and then stick it in my wii to play or whatnot?

sorry ive never actually taken the time to play a console online.

^^the add-ons would likely store on the onboard memory.

So, does this mean that Zelda could theoretically become a "never ending game"?

Multiplayer bowshooting-capture the flag mode would be really cool, 32 players horse riding and shooting on each other
