It is a GC game with extra stuff for Wii. But from what I've read, the team switched tracks to the Wii at least a year ago -- the additions are certainly significant.

I really can't imagine playing the game using the same old buttons to work the boomerang, bow, and fishing rod... these Wii upgrades are a definite improvement. And from every review I've seen from somebody who's played both, the GC version is indeed inferior. That's not to say it's bad or anything. But the control on the Wii version is well-developed and top notch.

Holding out for the Wii version is indeed the smart move here, methinks.

edit: Nate, if it wasn't thoroughly obvious from each of my posts here already, I'm sure you could indeed obtain the green tunic in a shorter amount of time. Since I haven't restarted, and don't plan to in the near future, I couldn't give you any real estimate as to what kind of time-saving we're talking about here.

And I'm really not sure why the topic of how long it takes to get the green tunic is quite so important in the first place.
