IGN have uncovered more details on the upcoming Wii-iteration of Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, due for release on the same day as the Wii.

According to their sources, a trip across Hyrule on horse back will allegedly take the user around 45 minutes in real-time - an effort previously unseen in any Zelda game before. Additionally, the Wii version will included an exclusive 16:9 mode not seen in the Gamecube version.

I think this wouldn't be too bad, if travelling from one end to the other. What i think would be a good idea is to have small villages dotted around; where you could save. Each village could have a shop and a minigame, and would offer people a 'way out' so they could save and exit without ending up back at the starting end of the field. Also, if the horseback fights happened quite often, and other things could be done while riding, it may be quite good.

do u mean like minigames or somthing

MetroidZ · 09-03-2006, 12:47 PM

not sure, just saying that because 45 minutes riding over to hyrule with just the random enemy encounter will become boring

MetroidZ · 09-03-2006, 01:51 PM

I HOpe That There Are SOm Shortcuts...I Mean, C'mon! 45 Minutes!?

Brokine · 09-04-2006, 03:59 AM

I got nothing to say except that this is even more awesome news for Twilight Princess

Ya. What I hope for is really cool things to see. For example, riding across a feild gets boring, but if you get to ride past a tall waterfall and along the narrow edge of a cliff... that would be fun! I think you should also be able to set up a tent and cook some stuff on a spit! That would be fun. It would really feel like an adventure. And if there were different roads you could take and the only way through some mountains were via a couple of passes or tunnels. And if your horse had to stop and drink. Which brings me to another point... do you think your horse is called Epona? This is so cool, especially if its true. I cant wait to finally, fully feel like Im going on some grand adventure!

O ya, what Im generally saying is that if it is great to look at and sometimes you have to go slow just so you can see it a little longer it'll be great. Also I hope they make use of such a big world. I mean... you need to make sure you know where that waterfall is otherwise you will be looking for a long time. Ya...

I wonder how they worked it out and from where to where they did it.

On an unrelated topic: If that is true 45 minutes to ride over hyrule feild it'll take like years to go on foot, thank god for Epona (or whatever you decide to call your horse)

jiarachi_dancing_man · 09-04-2006, 01:47 PM

well of course there would be ocarina songs, which would make getting from one side to the other considerably quicker

nintendowiigaming.piczo · 09-04-2006, 02:01 PM

exactly! i don't whink i allways wan't to ride with epona. espessially if i have not so much time in my hands
