 unh July 5, 2008
i bought it because it said it covered the gamecube version no it dosent go figure there two compeletely different games everything is switched right to left so that if theres a room on the right on the map than its on my left on the gamecube version. because most people are right handed they changed link because in previous games he was left handed im not entirely sure how it effects game play, though it takes quite a bit of getting used to, but i could see it being very useful to wii gamers. but if you own the gamecube version buy the specificaly made guide.
 A guide to more fun when playing April 30, 2008
The guide enables you to play knowing what your doing. It makes it more fun for me not having to second guess every move.
Zelda Twilight Princess Guide April 12, 2008
This is a great guide for help with the game. Although the guide tends to lean toward the wii, it does explain both the wii and the gamecube. One has to remember that some of the items on the gamecube are in the opposite side for the wii... in other words, if something on the wii in the east, it will be in the west on the gamecube.
Very helpfull guide April 11, 2008
After playing Legend of Zelda on Nintendo 64 several years ago, it was a must to play on Nintendo wii as well. Knowing how many hours it'll take to play the the game to the end, this guide was bought.
The guide has been very helpfull on the way so far, and it actually gives me time to enjoy the game.Legend of Zelda: Twilight Wii
A Beautiful Uncluttered Aid February 15, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have both Zelda Guides (this and the Prima) I personally far prefer this (the Nintendo) guide but YOUR preference depends on what you're looking for. What makes this guide superior (IMHO) is the clean, simple layout/directions. The focus is on the basics - you can quickly scan this, to figure out what to do next if you get stuck, view the excellent maps to get a sense of where you are, and accomplish all important tasks.
For me the Prima Guide is so cluttered, busy and unfocused, I find myself studying the guide more than playing and enjoying the game. The maps are barely ledgible in low light, and cluttered with graphics of every item (major and minor) including every bloody ruppee found in a chest - making it necessary to seriously study the map just to locate the vitals (keys, hearts etc).
The walkthrus in the Prima guide are considerably more detailed leading you to every golden bug, rupee patch etc. Many will prefer this approach, I just found that it interfered with enjoyment of the game - since you become victim of strict adherence to the guide. (Don't get me wrong, I'm not anti-cheats heck, I buy these guides since there's nothing more frustrating than getting stuck in a massive game like Zelda.)
That said, the Prima Guide had one thing I really liked: a list of hearts/checklist. It also had some nice overviews of techniques, and more strategies on boss killing.
SUMMARY
Which guide you prefer, will likely depend on how you like to play the game. I prefer to meander a bit, search around, try things for myself and turn to a guide when I'm stuck - I'm also (obviously) really bothered by cluttered graphics - and find the Nintendo truly elegant looking, and useful for my style of play. The Prima guide is more geared to those who don't want to miss a single item at the first possible opportunity - follow it to the letter, and you'll won't miss a thing, and won't need to retrace your steps.
PS: If you can, buy both
