Twilight Princess, GAMECUBE VERSION!!! Status? - Lwrabbit420 - 04-12-2009
I know there's a crap load of threads about the wii version, but what about the gamecube version? Does that run perfectly? Slowdowns like the wii? Any news on this would be greatly appreciated.
If it does work, which region should I look for? PAL or NTSC? Because I think I know a store where I saw it at. Then again i'm not sure since I was kind of "out there". I'm pretty sure you can guess what I mean just by looking at the last 3 numbers of my name.

Did you go to the Dolphin's homepage and look it up in the compatibility list by doing a search? You can find the answer to your question for the Wii and GC versions.

I did, however, it would help me out if I actually got the details before I decide to blow money on this game. I have a gamecube, but all 4 of my controllers are busted. (when my sister was little she used to teeth on the cords when I wasn't looking)

It has a few graphical bugs, but not unplayable. You'll need a decently fast processor to run it because it is graphic intensive. If you're looking for a perfect version then it will be a while.

If it's graphic intensive then wouldn't that mean it mainly relies on the gpu? Not the cpu? Or am I getting that wrong? Sorry I'm a pc gamer, not much of a console gamer.

Even though we are talking about the graphics, it still relies more on the CPU to process it, rather than using the graphics card. Yes, there are several of us that wish it would use more of the graphics card than CPU, but that's not how the gamecube was designed. So while it makes sense to think you'd want to have a powerful, fast graphics card, it's actually more beneficial to have a faster processor.

Probably less than that. I'd suggest getting a dual core 2.8 or faster. Since I don't own the actual game, I can't tell you exactly. Maybe someone who's played it could give you a better idea. I have a dual core 2.2 and I know it would run to slow on my computer just by watching vid's of the game.
