No, I'm pretty sure the Spaceworld 2000 Link/Ganondorf duel was in real-time, probably slightly rigged (not a lot of AI overhead), but it wasn't so overly ambitious that it would be impossible to recreate on the GC. You could see that level of graphics is easily attainable by the hardware. If an adult link ever sees the light of day, and the current popular rumour is that there is a second Zelda title for the GameCube featuring the more traditional graphics we were all expecting, I'd expect the look of the game to be something like that, although Link probably has to be reworked as he looked kinda strange in that Demo. Whatever the case, I'm pretty sure the nintendo demos at Spaceworld 2000, save the FMV/Real-time Rebirth thing, were all done by the hardware with little trickery. - --Boundary_(ID_uQr8b/p0qRMVJbiRRO8YsQ) Content-type: text/html; charset=us-ascii Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT
 
 But even if you can't accept that, there's always that it was just a tech demo and was not a real Zelda game. I mean, where's the PS2 game with the rubber duck swimming in the sink?


No, I'm pretty sure the Spaceworld 2000 Link/Ganondorf duel was in real-time, probably slightly rigged (not a lot of AI overhead), but it wasn't so overly ambitious that it would be impossible to recreate on the GC.  You could see that level of graphics is easily attainable by the hardware.  If an adult link ever sees the light of day, and the current popular rumour is that there is a second Zelda title for the GameCube featuring the more traditional graphics we were all expecting,  I'd expect the look of the game to be something like that, although Link probably has to be reworked as he looked kinda strange in that Demo.
