Oi. Twilight Princess delayed until April 2006, at least

In short, they need more time to spend on the game, so the release date has been postponed until after March 31st. The new date has not been fixed.

X-3 · 08-16-2005, 07:11 AM

Its not THAT bad, for me at least, as I can get Shadow and something else for ol' Christmas, then later get money to get TP, and then get the Revolution.

The best thing is, this means it'll be updated and more fun in the end.

The Missing Link · 08-16-2005, 07:59 AM

Can I redo my day over again? It's not even 9am and it already sucks.

Thankfully they do have some wicked screenshots of it.

Like this one:

Bummer, but I can wait. It's clear that really try to avoid to make the same mistakes like they did with WW, which was clearly rushed. There were no dungeons where you really would expect one and the Triforce quest was a farce.

darkintention · 08-16-2005, 02:24 PM

I was getting a excited thinking this game would be out in 2.5 months, but this doesn't really suprise me. If Nintendo is adding more levels, that's cool by me.

I really loved the new town screenshots, even though its a little funny how much more detailed Link's character model is compared to the general populace surounding him. That makes sense, but he kinda seems to stick out like a sore thumb.

LinkManDX · 08-16-2005, 03:30 PM

Well, at least they're not pulling a Mircosoft and rushing a product because they want it on the shelf.

El Barto · 08-16-2005, 04:11 PM

What's with the green guy to Link's left in that shot TML posted? He looks like Shrek.

^ Now, now. No Darth Vader quotes. For shame?

Koga, I'm guessing it's a soldier??

Towns that are actually POPULATED.

I'm in love *swoon*

Sim Kid · 08-16-2005, 08:37 PM

Which would you prefer?

Nintendo finishes the game as quick as they can and it's released full of Plotholes, obviously rushed boss battles/Cutscenes, bugs, and glitches everywhere

Or

Nintendo makes nessecary delays in order to fill in plotholes and eliminate bugs and glitches.

Just be glad they didn't wait until the very last second to delay it.

Beam Yosho the Drunkard · 08-16-2005, 09:06 PM

So this would mean they'll be working on it for....two years now?

That's fine, actually. Resident Evil 4 took like, what? Four years? And that game is pretty long AND graphically pleasing.

It actually wasn't me who asked what that green thing was.

April doesn't sound as bad as, oh say, November 2006, where I'll be even more crammed in work and my Gamecube will probably die by then.

Yeah, this can also give me the chance to get a job so I can start saving up. Once a sign of a "Reserve your copy" comes up, I'm blasting to K-Mart.

The Missing Link · 08-17-2005, 07:36 AM

Don't preorder until a release date is given. That's my only advice.

Figures. This is pretty much BS, but I'd like a better game if that's what they're trying to do.

Vaster · 08-17-2005, 03:36 PM

In the meantime, there is literally nothing to play on the GCN for the next 8 months. Of course, it's been that way this whole year(With the sole exception of RE4).
