I'm playing the GCN version of Twilight Princes and I've just read on the internet that the seasons change. I've noticed the weather change but nothing to indicate that it's a different season. It's just sometimes I have rainy days or grey skies. Nothing more. Does anyone know anything about this?

No clue. Could always go into your GC and change the date to December, should show some snow or what-not if it's true.

That's worth a try. I'll give it a whirl.

The only place in TP that changes seasons, that I know of, is the fishing hole. Every time you enter the area, the season changes. I believe the Hylian Loach can only be caught in a certain season, spring I believe. Whenever there are lily pads.

Nope. I played it in December, and it wasn't snowy at all.

That's sort of disappointing, given that Sega Saturn's NiGHTS Into Dreams could do that.

Oh well, UltraPrimal has explained it. Thanks!

This makes me wish more games would use the internal clock in the system. I loved how in MGS3 you could fight The End or save, wait a week I believe, and when you loaded the game again he had died of old age.

GTA is another game that could use this, but with the internal clock in the game. I would love to see trees grwoing leaves and stuff the longer you play and go through the 4 seasons. When winter rolls around, snow would fall and you'd see people building snowmen and skating on the pond in the park because it has frozen over. Stuff like that would keep me playing for a loooong time. Much longer than trying to collect 100 golden jars or what have you.
