The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

At E3 2006 Nintendo officially announced that there would be a separate Wii only version of Twilight Princess. The GameCube version will play on the Wii (because the Wii is backward compatible) but will not have any special features. The features will be available only in the Wii specific version.

The controls are as follows. The Analog stick on the Nunchuk will move link, flicking the Nunchuk attachment will swing the sword in various ways (the B button will do a simple thrust). The Remote will be used for aiming ranged weapons and navigating menus (Navi appears to let you know where you're pointing the Remote and crosshairs assist with ranged weapons).

The speaker on the Remote will play local sounds such as the sound of a bow string snapping as an arrow is released and the arrow's whistling sound will diminish from the Remote's speaker as it grows in the TV speaker providing some depth of field to certain sound effects.
