the GC version is a mirror image of the Wii version. Other than that they are the same ... with the difference of the controls of course

So does the GameCube version. The only difference is in terms of graphics is the Wii version supports widescreen. The Wii version also uses the unique control scheme of course, but you get full camera control on the GameCube.

The Wii version is controlled with the wiimote (D'Oh). Because most of users are right handed, in the Wii version Link has his sword in the right hand, opposed to the left han in the GC version, and every other Zelda game in histoy (Yes! Link is a lefty ;)). As for graphics, they are identical.
The interfaces in the Wii version therefor differ from the GC version.

If you have a Wii then you should get the Wii version. If you don't have a wii and aren't sure you will be buying one anytime soon, go ahead and get the gamecube version.

My wife's sister's husband was down from Virginia just the other day and was playing my Wii version of Zelda, and was thrown off for a bit because of the whole mirrored effect of the GC version.  It was quite entertaining watching him try to figure out some of the dungeons in the Wii version. :lol:
The fact of Link not being a lefty in the Wii version didn't bother me too much, it was a bit akward at first, but after a while I didn't notice so much. Great game nontheless!

no the wii version is mirrored.  the wii is more blurry, it has no camera system, and you need to buy the component cables to make it look as good as the gc version.  trust me get the gc.

What are you talking about? The Wii version is not blurrier. The graphics are identical other than the Wii supporting widescreen. Also, you need component cables for the GameCube to make that version look good also. It's not like the GameCube with composite cables looks as good as the Wii with component.

I heard more than 80% of the games for Wii and GCN support WideScreen 480p, so it doesnt make sense for T.P. to be missing WideScreen on the GC if it is one of the final games for the system.

Ignore what this poster has to say because he obviously doesn't have the game.

The graphics are the exact same on both consoles and run the same exact way.

You heard wrong. At least 2/3 of GameCube games support progressive-scan, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they support widescreen. I doubt 10% of 'Cube games support widescreen. The Wii's percentage for 480p and widescreen are much nicer, but still not as high as they should be.

Agreed.  The gamecube one was specified by Nintendo to not have widescreen.  There was a huge uproar on the forums about this.  Tis' true.
