    In what is quickly becoming a saga of operatic proportions, the issue regarding whether or not The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess will use the Revolution's controller has now managed to go through several phases: It's been rumored, discussed, explored, rejected, embraced, confirmed, resolved, denied, counter-denied, buried under a mango tree somewhere in the Dominican Republic and finally, posted on a myriad of Nintendo-themed blogs. Just like this one.For those who have been unable to keep track of the whole thing either due to a lack of attention span or basic literacy (and we can certainly identify with that one), here's a short summary: NGC Magazine: Holy yes! You can use the Revolution's controller with The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess!Nintendo: What? Uh, that's totally not true. You guys are a bunch of liars.NGC Magazine: It's true! Stop denying it! Jerks.Well, that's a rather crude compression of events, but it should be enough motivation to get you thinking about what would prompt a magazine to risk its reputation and go up against the word of the actual creators of the game. Have they lost their minds? Is Nintendo trying to keep a brilliant idea under wraps? A more detailed version of the story and my own vaguely coherent thoughts on this situation follows.
