Legend Of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

Looks pretty damn sweet. It looks like they've found a great way to make use of the touch screen...especially with the boomerang. The music is making the hairs on my arms stand up....straight out of "Link to the Past". Pics and video in the link. Enjoy. BTW, sorry if this was already posted, but I didn't see it.

Cooool, anything like Link to the Past has a good chance of bein' good!

Look like a lot of fun, but it seems a little too childish. I know its been said before about Wind Waker, but this seems too kiddie. Maybe I am just getting the wrong impression and it will change when it releases.

Still, I am so thoroughly glad that they are finally getting creative with the gameplay--the touchpad is shaping up nicely! Reminds me of Okami for the PS2--sweet new fun and a totally radical departure from the mainstream of videogaming.

This looks awesome.

A few more good DS titles and I'm gonna have to buy one. Mario Kart alone is almost worth getting one for.

OMG! That looks so boss! The graphics are great, the touchscreen and second screen are both utilized beautifully, and the sound is indeed awesome. I can't wait

As much as I absolutley love zelda...I was hoping more for an OOT DS, but I suppose this makes better use of the touchscreen...it looks like a mix between TWW and ALLTP...which isnt exactley a bad thing, but I would rather see 3rd person zelda style than top-down.

This looks like an exceptional game.

Crispy old school graphics, the imaginative uses for the touch screen controls they have put in this game as if to say, "I told you this was an awesome idea", exciting and inspiring sound/music from their legendary series of games, and great and interesting use of the double screens.

The small rooms look to be a great challenge for great sword play, and should lead to a bit of strategy with those fiesty looking enemies.

Looks like alot of fun.

Exceptional animation. Thats what sprite based sword play would have SHIT ON ITSELF to look like and play like back in the NES and SNES days.


A good reason to want a DS. I am not a portable gamer, but I would love to play this game to the end. More than likely I will never get to play it, but Im happy to see games like this none the less.

It's not a big shocker for Nintendo to make games like this, I'm just glad they do.

Castlevania DS is another good reason.

 

[JNightshade]

Yeah, Kirby is great. I love my DS. It's just so freaking awesome ^___^

 

[ThomasToad]

I love my DS too I only have Mario Kart and Castlevania so far but those two alone have held my attention since christmas. I may be picking up Metroid Prime Hunters very soon though, and i'm eagerly awaiting the New Super Mario Bros. which comes out in May.

Oh and this new Zelda looks to bring a lot of new things to the series which is cool, the music in the trailer alone gets me very excited.(Dark World Overworld theme from Link to the Past)

 

[JNightshade]

I must say, when Nintendo brings OoT to the DS/someone figures out how to easily run ROMS, I will be a happy man.

 

[AmishSlayer]

Is the Kirby game like Kirby's Adventure for NES? I loved that game.

Waaaaaaay different.

You basically control Kirby through strokes across the game screen... making magic line thingies that he glides along. (I think... I played alittle at Best Buy.)
