Twilight Princess glitch keeps gamer from continuing

Posted Nov 27, 2006 at 1:15PM EST by QJ Staff

Man, this has got to hurt. Some enterprising fellow realized that a glitch in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is keeping him from continuing the game, and has decided to inform the public through YouTube.

Dustinsoftware notes that a bug in the cannon room makes it seemingly impossible to warp the cannon out of the room if you save there. An NPC is supposed to leave the room with the cannon, allowing you to warp the cannon out. The problem is, saving seems to make the NPC disappear from view, but the game still registers that character as being in the room. Attempting to warp the cannon prompts your fairy to mention that someone's still watching you even when no one is there. At the same time, trying to exit the room prompts a conversation with the invisible NPC, with him asking you where you were going.

Essentially, you're stuck in a room where you're unable to warp out or transform under any circumstances, and attempting to exit forces a conversation that locks you in. Where's Zelda when Link needs her, eh? Until Nintendo addresses this issue, however, you'd probably want to watch this video and make sure not to save in that area.

Always keep a backup save...







...Though this should not be happening. That sucks. I'd hate to have to start over after getting that far.

# wtf are you people smoking?Guest 2006-11-27 17:01
I'm hearing a lot of trash talk to this person for voicing that he'd like to see a patch. And a lot of people talking out of their ass who I guess are trapped in the past generation of consoles. Here's some information for you people:

1. Patches for console games started on the Xbox 360. Almost every game that's come out for that system can be updated with patches. Gears of War, came with an update on the first day to address some issues. Oblivion had patches to remove glitches that allowed for infinite gold.



2. The Nintendo Wii is capable of doing this as well. Remember the comment from some nintendo guy who was important to the zelda: tp creation. I forget his name, but he talked about downloadable content for the game. Now take a look at the virtual console help system. Pay attention to the topic about "Updates" to games.



So yes, a patch is more possible now, than there ever was in the history of console gaming. So think before you talk out of your ass with racial comments.



That said, I don't think a patch will come out simply because that was probably a fluke. If it was more widespread maybe but I've experienced fatal glitches in games before on the cube for example, which as far as I know only I managed to get affected by.

Uh.. the XBOX360 has a Hard drive, the Nintendo Wii does not.. where are you going to save the patch to? The SDCard? I don't think that's feasible.

# errGuest 2006-11-27 17:13
The wii may not have a hard drive. But it has 512mb of built in flash storage. The sd card is for backup purposes. The average size for a patch to a game that fixes only bugs? A couple of MB at best.

Only two constructive comments out of all the above posts. At least it seems that the bug doesn't happen for everyone and this video is fair warning for those who are yet to get there.

You have a girlfriend? Either this 'girl' is in a coma, or she is a whale, or she has some sort of sick sense of humour.

Nobody likes trolls. Good luck with real life.

I found one glitch in the forest temple that I couldn't get around. I was able to roll through a gate corner and I couldn't get out. Doesn't fill me with hope, but at least I was able to start over with a recent save.

its not really funny how dumb people are. I wish parents would regulate their kids internet habbits so we wouldnt have to deal with the immature crap that i just read. If it is an older person typing this crap - it only goes to show how public schools have failed. One Kramer in the world is enough.



I hope the glitch gets figured out. I was thinking about buying a wii, but now im having even more second thoughts.

LoL %u201Clisten to what you%u2019re typing%u201D that%u2019s great. Anywho aside from all this garbage that%u2019s been posted in this board...

Zelda could get patched like the 360 but about that... Anyone remember Dead Rising? That had some really annoyingly small text but for some reason Capcom said this couldn't be fixed with a patch. Also Halo 2 actually has been patched before, but as many of you may know you can still super bounce out of the map along with numerous other glitches. However, Bungie claims these exploits can't be patched either.

The fact is that don't get your hopes up for a patch because it isn't always a possibility because, as stated above, the disks are... well... disks so it really isn't all THAT simple especially given that there has been no mention of games receiving a patch for the Wii up until this, whereas for the 360 we knew this could be done prior to even the consoles launch.

Glitches like this happen in so many different games. It's not just a Wii thing. I've found glitches even worse than this in pleanty of games. Keep into consideration that these next-gen games are complicated even for big teams of 200 people making a game. Plus, it's one of the first games. They'll probably be a lot better in a year or two.

I can't believe MR OWNAGE.



He types like a complete moron, and he is probably 12. He doesn't understand any logic.



First of all, patches have been out since Nintendo 64. Patched come in different forms:



- Different game versions with updates

- Downloadable patches via Internet

- Upgrade Disc



To fix this bug in Zelda would take maximum one hour to make for Nintendo.



For example on PS2: SOCOM US Navy Seals had the ability to jump 40 feet forward. Think about it. That's a BIG update.



When you read his post, don't be angry. Just laugh. Think about how young he actually is. Remember when it was cool when you were 10 and on a forum thinking your the top dog? That's what he thinks right now.



Patches have been occuring for over 20 years.



Yes they are possible, and this bug will probably be fixed in the next system update internally or a seperate download when the Forecast and Weather Channel become available for use to public.



PS: This guy says QJ sucks and all, yet he sits on the site all day just to respond to the next person because he has no friends or life, at the age of 12.



Hell, he'll probably respond to mine soon after just because I'm flaming him.





All in all, a patch will be released.

Children, behave! Some of your comments are disgusting and racist. Honestly, it's a video game site - I'm sure there are actual children coming here for information - don't let them read that crap you're posting.

I think some of you need to figure out how to spell before trying to come up with a solution to a glitch. Oh yeah... Stop the raciscm.

# sorry to disappointGuest 2006-11-28 19:10
Thanks for the tip Luke but my typing is just fine. For some odd reason (probably because I have to use IE 7 to view this page) whenever I submit a comment it tends to alter the wording around a quotation mark or other symbol. Which as you can see happened in my previous post. Thanks for the heads up Luke, oh and BTW its... your typing sucks TOO, not to...

well actually patches started on the xbox with halo 2. Even though there was only one update you needed that update to use the new maps. So it is consider a patch but yea they use patches on the pc games so why not on consoles.

# Oh, and by the way,Xfacter 2006-11-29 11:43
This glitch can be worked around. Pretty much all the game-ending glitches people have found so far are not truly game-ending if you're not a total idiot.
