Which One is Canon?

[fused_shadows]

A lot of fanmades theories focus on different aspects of games that link each one to the next, and in order for a theory to make sense, there has to be geographical reasoning. With this in mind, which map if Tp's overworld would be the canon one? The GC version or the Wii version?

 

[The Joker]

I vote the Wii version. I think that one was the first to be released too.

I think the Canon version is the Gamecube version. Nintendo "flipped" the game so that the Wii motion controls would be for right-handed people. This kind of indicates that the GC version was made first.

Gamecube version has the canon I'm afraid. It's the original game, and the Wii version is the world flipped to make Link right-handed and shoehorn in the motion controls.

 

[Batman]

I honestly don't think it matters.

They could have left the map un-altered by they changed it because they thought it would give somewhat of a reason to try both. Or if you had the Gamecube one and your friend had the Wii one it would be confusing for one another.
I honestly think it doesn't matter at all..

 

[TheRealLink]

it must the gamecube because it was made first

Gamecube version has the canon I'm afraid. It's the original game, and the Wii version is the world flipped to make Link right-handed and shoehorn in the motion controls.

Agree with this. The location of Kakariko village is similar to its OoT counter part in the GC version and TP is supposed to be OoT's sequel.

 

[Krazy4Krash]

It's definitely the Gamecube version. That's how it was originally made. Even the locations of places such as the desert and lake are similar to that of Ocarina of Time.

 

[Seth]

Both.

One just happens to be mirrored.

It was probably GC because the Wii version had some additons like the game where you balance the Wii remote and the extra item slot(s)

 

[A Link In Time]

I vote the Wii version. I think that one was the first to be released too.

While that is true, Twilight Princess began development as a Gamecube game and was later ported to Wii with a mirrored world. The Gamecube world map of Twilight Princess is therefore canon.

 

[Big Octo]

I'm guilty of agreeing to the notion that the map orientation makes all the difference...

So, yeah, the GCN is canon.

 

[winterbbytumblr]

I believe it was the gamecube version

 

[RawMeals]

i would probably say the GameCube version as well.
It was the original map
The one for the Wii was made for the Wii.
