The second Zelda for the GameCube (and the first for the Wii) had a long development of nearly four years, and the final game turned out to be a lot different from what was first revealed in 2004. Some areas and dungeons were removed, while the surviving sections were heavily modified.

The game was developed by the same team that created the cel-shaded Wind Waker, and as a result some things were re-used, such as the games battle and movement systems. It’s possible to find some unused items in the game-code, like the original Wind Waker baton and the Spoils Bag from WW.

Thanks to Jay for the english corrections!

Hi Torin! The development of Zelda 64, URA and Majora’s Mask it’s a long and complex story, but you can read a good summary of its evolution in this article:

I’m surprised that no one corrected these guys. Oh well…
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess was NOT the second Zelda game for the GameCube, only to be the fifth. The second Zelda GameCube game was the GameCube version of Ocarina of time (Nintendo 64 classic. Third was the Collector’s Edition, and the fourth was The Four Swords Adventure (the sequal to the 2002 Game Boy Advance Multi-Player game). I have all 5 Zelda games for the GameCube, though I play them on my Wii.

Hm… the beta version is much better in graphics and much better in story. Though they left it out in the Gamecube version. The beta has much more in store from this point of veiw. Hopefully they can come out with it. The beta version is something more than just the NGC version, it has more to it. *sighs* all we can really do is wait.
