Nintendo confirm the Wii version of the upcoming Zelda title will only support the Wii-mote.

Camp Hryule is Nintendo's annual online event and recently the host of an online chat with Vice President of Marketing and Corporate Communications George Harrison, who revealed that the Wii version of Twilight Princess will not be able to support any controls from Gamecube pad whatsoever.

Though the GameCube version of the title will support a GameCube pad while played on the Wii console itself. And obviously, the GameCube title played on the GameCube will not accept Wii-mote controls. Savvy?

TSA: Hi. What is up with the release status of Twilight Princess - is it coming out on GCN everywhere, or just here? Also, will we be able to use the GCN controller for the Wii version?
NOA_GEORGE_HARRISON: Zelda TP will be releasing on both GCN and Wii on the same day as the launch of Wii.
NOA_GEORGE_HARRISON: The GCN controller will be able to play the GCN version on the Wii console, but will not be able to play the Wii version.
