    Just got it. Bought it to see what version it was and if the graphics were any different from the cube version. VERY interesting stuff already.

    -The game itself uses the same graphics as the 1998 version and not the 2003 promotional disc (Meaning blue sword icon instead of red). However, the game is still censored to the best of my knowledge. They placed the new Gerudo symbol that was in Master Quest and the promo/collectors edition of Ocarina. Not sure if they censored anymore than that, but we got a new revision of the game reguardless (Granted, it may just be a updated version 1.2 with more censorship, since the symbol was changed).

    -The quality of the 2D items such as Deku nuts and bombs are much better then the emulated version on the GCN. In fact, the game looks better in general in 480p. Game saves like the N64 version.

    -May just be me, but the control feels stiffer on the GCN pad on the VC version then the GCN version. Granted, that may just be a side-effect of the classic controller (And it plays horribly on the CC, use the GCN pad).

    So, I dare say Nintendo has at least fixed a few of the kinks the GCN Emulator had with items. That bodes well that future Expansion Pack games may run better then Majora's Mask did on the GCN.

    It was originally a crecent moon and thought to look too similiar to the 'muslim' crecent. Which is sort of odd, as their is no 'official' logo for Islam, though the crecent moon is sometimes used.

    Ganon coughs red blood near the end of the game. Later they changed the color to green which makes it look like he loses his lunch on you.

    Don't forget the background music in one of the temples when you play as adult Link.

    Fire Temple, sounds like Arabic chanting. Either set of audio is fine by me after hearing either.
