I'm a bit suprised, I felt like playing a Zelda and I already played OoT on VC way too many times, so I poped in Twilight Princess and I'm suprised - maybe I was playing OoT for too long, but the graphics on Twilight Princes is amazing, the shadowing, the lighting, the models, the bump maping and morphing everything was there, it made me think of two things; if graphics sell systems then how come the PS2 out sold a system that could produce this kind of immersion in visuals. The next thing was, did we need a Wii to begin with, why didn't Nintendo just employ the same philosophy to the Game Cube and outsell Sony and Microsoft; these graphics are amazing
I mean I'm not certain if the GC version looks worse but if I remember this is a GC port, I'm using components though... either way this game is beyond good enough, it's directly comparable to Mario Galaxy, but I like the feel of the Zelda world more, great job to Nintendo. |
To answer your question about PS2/GC sales, that would be due to the fact that GameCube wasn't a great deal better graphically than PS2 and PS2 had a much larger library of quality games to play. Sales aren't only driven by graphics, but by overall how much fun a system is. In this generation Wii has been seen as the highest selling console so far when it has graphics only 20% better than GameCube.

I agree with everything until the bolded. Please give some information or evidence to support your claim. The wii is far more than 20% more powerful.

I don't have any links to a specific source but I recalled a statement from Nintendo saying
"We didn't put a great emphasis on graphics with the Wii" and "The visuals are improved 20% over Nintendo GameCube"
That may not have been their exact words, but it was the point of the statement in response to people saying Nintendo Wii didn't have as large a graphical increase as PlayStation 3 or Xbox360 from their previous generations.

i think they were saying that they didnt concentrate on graphics,i have never read them saying that they are only 20% better
