Nintendo announced this morning that its anticipated new adventure game, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, has been delayed. The title, formerly scheduled to debut this November around the world, has since been postponed to 2006 so that the developer can continue to make the game better.

oh well, i guess the game will just get better. But that leaves the NGC without any major release for the holyday season. And nothing to counter the xbox 360 release. Twilight Princess could have made the NGC' second breath, but 2006 seems to be way too far and near the ps3 and revolution release.

This looks more likely to go to the Revolution. Isn't 2006 the projected release date for that system?

You've had wierd experiences with Gamecubes, TheDeathcoaster. I've had one, and it looked like the owner had attached it to the bumper of their car and driven off with it. It worked like a charm

Edit: I'm doing very bad with spelling today.

Just had an idea on this:
Nintendo release it, for cube, at the time of the revolution launch. Revolution is backward compatible with Gamecube, and nintendo make the game "enhanced" with the revolution - e.g. higher quality textures, more polygons etc. Probably a possibility, and would keep the customers happy - It'd give people who've bought a revolution a way to show of their fancy new hardware, and would give owners of cubes a good game without the need to upgrade. Also would mean nintendo have a zelda for a launch of a console, which has to be a good thing, plus it gives them one extra revolution game at launch without much more work

comments?

Nintendo has a battle ahead of them, then. I can't see them coming out of this one intact... Sony seems to be making pretty bad decisions as well, if the pricing and development difficulty rumours are true.

Very true, anything later then fall of 2006, and they will put themselves in a risk. They could do this if the GCN has a healthy ammount of games coming out and a good fanbase, but it doesn't right now.
