I hope my cousin can buy a copy of Zelda GC for me on the 13th, I don't really want to buy it by Ebay or Amazon.

Is he bringing it back, or shipping it?

I plan to travel to the US on the 16th, christmas shopping, but I don't want to game hunt, so I told him to buy it for me, and once I get there, just pay him.

I have Twilight Princess (Wii version, arrived early on 9th Dec), but I have no means of playing it.

Heh, join the club. I've had it since launch day over here, it's just sitting on my desk and mocking me...

Same here. It's been killing me ever since launch day.

Any tips on finding the damn classic controller?

I haven't found any nunchuks or classic controllers. It's impossible to find them. I had a hard enough time finding a second Wiimote.
But if you want it for the VC, just pick up a used GC controller. That's what I did (that, and I want to play some GC games).

Also, Twilight Princess is incredible. It blows all previous Zeldas out of the water.

Classic controllers are actually one of the few things I CAN find. Most of the stores around here have at least one. I have never seen an extra nunchuck, but I did buy three wiimotes on launch day. They are also sitting on my desk, useless.

Nunchucks were hard to find here, then I found a single Target store with about 10 of them and nothing else. It was as if they received the allocations for the rest of the state...because everyone else was dry until 2 weeks later when another Target store got some nunchucks in stock. Best Buy in Newnan, GA has not even restocked on Wii remotes except once since launch!

I still enjoyed LttP and LA (3 and 4) far more, maybe because I was so much younger. I have not yet completed TP. I can already say conclusively that TP is FAR better than OoT.

Too many abbreviations...ARRRGH!

Well, ALttP was my previous favorite (I owned LA DX but never finished it <_<; ), but I honestly enjoyed TP more. TP gets better as you play it.
ALttP is still an awesome game though. ALttP was my second game ever, the first being Super Mario World, so it has a permanent spot in my heart. <3

As I said earlier, I still have not completed TP, but so far it is far better than OoT in every way. I never thought OoT was nearly as great as everyone else seemed to think. As of right now, I still hold LA and ALttP at the top. Link's Awakening was my first and I actually enjoyed it more than ALttP. You owe it to yourself to finish it. I have completed it countless times just because it's so much fun to go all the way through. There were enough changes in the DX version to make it extremely annoying. You should play the original B&W version first. One of the greatest accomplishments of this game was what Nintendo was able to achieve with 4 shades of grey.

I don't expect most to like LA as much as I did. I was younger then and I didn't know that a lot of the stuff in LA was taken from the SNES game.

Same here.

The classic controller is overrated. Unless you are playing snes games, the Gamecube controller is actually a better choice.
