What's with the broken royal crest in the corner?

Non Canon?
On a Zelda website, they called the Wii version of Twilight Princess non-canon. I just wanted to know if that is accurate, because I see no reason why it is. Thanks! Darkness 22:56, 27 October 2012 (UTC)


 * As I understand it, the GCN version of TP is widely accepted as more "official" or canonical because it's the original; the Wii version less canonical because it's mirrored (though I wouldn't say it's completely non-canon). The Hyrule map in the GCN version is more comparable to that of other games in the series than the mirrored version seen on the Wii. For example, the deserts in Hyrule are almost always to the west, but in the Wii version of TP, Gerudo Desert is to the east. In the GCN version, Link is left-handed as he's always been up until SS, but in TP on the Wii, he's right handed. 16:04, 28 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Thank you, but for if a character appears only in the Wii version, (Such as the Cursor Fairy), are they canon or non canon? Anyway I thought the game guides for the Wii version were considered canon sometimes but the game itself is not?Darkness 23:29, 28 October 2012 (UTC)


 * I'm really sorry for double posting, but, as an example, the Cursor Fairy is listed as non canon... implying that the Wii version is definitely non canon... Sorry, I'm confused. Darkness 11:57, 29 October 2012 (UTC)


 * The cursor fairy is just part of the GUI, and has no impact on the story. Ergo, it does not have anything to do with canon. That's my take on it. Even the fact that the entire game is mirrored is more of a gameplay mechanic than a part of canon. In terms of canonical importance, I would say the Wii and Gamecube versions are basically exactly the same. I'd like to hear a second opinion about this. Dekler 13:37, 29 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks! Should I add something about this to the Cursor Fairy page or just leave it as it is? Darkness 15:21, 29 October 2012 (UTC)


 * As far as I know, there is no Cursor Fairy page, and I don't recommend making one, seeing as it would only be a stub. By the way, if you want to respond to someone, try putting a colon in front of your message, or two colons if you're responding to a response, etc. This way it's instantly clear who you're responding to. I hope you don't mind, but I added a few colons to your messages just now for that reason. Dekler 16:02, 29 October 2012 (UTC)


 * I had no idea! Thank you and sorry about the colons... and I was talking about the short 'Non Canon' section of the Fairy Companion page... I mean I was asking if I could move the Cursor Fairy section into the Canon section of the page, or put a new Ambiguously Canon template, or just leave it as it is...
