Four Swords game on gamecube different than the one on gameboy?

Ok guys, I've heard all kinds of things about this game. Is the Four Swords game coming out on Gamecube different than the one on the gameboy advance? Some websites have said that it is a sequel. To me, it looks like the exact same game. And is it true that they will be charging 50 smackers for it? I'm sorry but that's a rip off (Even though I'll probably buy it seeing that I'm a huge fan of Zelda) All they add is that Shadow Battle thing and that's it. It's not worth 50 bucks. Please tell me they're charging 30 dollars for it!

It is a similar idea, but you can play 1P, the story, levels, bosses, and (probably) enemies are diffirent, it's a whole new game. I myself think it's worth $50, it also has multi-player mode, and shadow battle, so it is very diffirent. (Improved graphics as well.)

it looks like they use cel shading in it, some of the effects and graphics are very similar to tWW, only its a top down 2D view instead of 3D.

*moves to Future Zelda*

The game is quite different than the Game Boy Advance version. Namely, there is a single-player mode (where you use formations to control all four Links at once), and as Ganon_dwarf explained, basically a completely different game when it comes to enemies, dungeons, etc.. The single-player is not really the same as the multi-player, however, in that you only control one (assuming you play with four people) Link at once, which means you constantly have competition, cooperation to worry about, etc..

And yes, some of the graphics are very similar to The Wind Waker. Sprites are used for most things, but effects (most of the 3D) are very sleek and inject a lot of life into the game.

We've had topics like this before. And your question's been answered.
