Just a thought. Since, if the development team is to be believed, that game pushed the Gamecube to its maximum (with only RE4 and Rogue Squadron III coming close), givng that engine to developers (or an open source variation if that engine used anything proprietary) would be a great way to set a minimum standard for the Wii at a much lower cost than developing for the Wii from scratch.

Hell no. They should give (or sell) a Wii engine not a GC one.

Yes, but its not going to happen, :( the same for Capcom...

Maybe someday those guys of HV...

It will be bashed because of the GC name associated with it.

But I see your point, if those graphics were a minimum standard it would prove better for the Wii at the moment.

Well when you say should Nintendo license the TP engine are you talking about what's best for the customer or the developer ?.

They should, just for the walk engine. Best one I've ever seen.

Million: Probably both.

No

The Wii is a more advanced GC. It's not two duct-taped together, but the structures are still similar. And the fact is that there aren't that many GC or Wii specific engines in the first place, and this would be a great way to start. It can create huge areas, with great framerate, lighting, and shading and mapping on the textures. Just that with the Wii, it can do all that with even more polygons, higher texture resolution, and more characters in an area.

the chances of nintendo licensing out an engine are slim. get factor 5 to oit instead, those guys are awesome

They should because even though it is a GC engine it is still better than other Wii game engines. Also, their next Zelda game better be more impressive, as it will be Wii exclusive.
