The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess was released on November 19, 2006. It was developed at Nintendo's EAD studio, and published by Nintendo for both the GameCube and Wii.
The game received an ESRB rating of "Teen" with "Animated Blood, Fantasy Violence" listed as content for parents and gamers to be aware of.
It has been half a decade since The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess was released on the Wii, and exactly how many hours have Wii owners reported playing Twilight Princess with 1,828 days possibly reported? Let's take a look!
The Brew
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess now has 1,296,257 Wii owners that have reported game-play data through the Nintendo Channel, which is an increase of 74,354 more Wii owners that have reported data since May 16th this year.
Twilight Princess' average play-time per day/session reported is 2 Hours 21 Minutes, and the game has increased by 3,933,722 "Total Hours" reported in the last 6 months.
As I reported on earlier this year, Twilight Princess released with a MSRP of $49.99 and remained at that MSRP for basically 4.5 years. If you are just getting a Wii system, or know somebody that is getting one as a Christmas gift you can now find The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for under $20, at its new MSRP of $19.99.
Caffeinated Thoughts
I believe The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess helped give the Wii system a great kickoff, and as the reported data shows (at least in the United States) Wii owners have gotten many hours of enjoyment out of the game. In just the last half decade since the game released, Wii owners in the United States have reported "Total Hours" which are equivalent to 7,156 years of straight game-play!
