Although there's no doubt that Zelda: Phantom Hourglass has always looked good, fans have been concerned that the new stylus-only control system might spoil the game, and Mr. Miyamoto admits that he was, too. "When we decided to develop a Zelda title for the DS, we wanted it to be a fun game with the essence of the DS," the Zelda daddy explains. However, he goes on to confess: "we were worried whether we could make a good Zelda game that used the stylus control scheme of the DS." But his ... » Read More

Phantom Hourglass is looking better every time Nintendo hits us with a new batch of screens, and this latest load is no exception. Check out the detail in the house interior screen, or the way the sand kicks up in the dungeon and the water splashing off Link's boat out at sea. We've seen flatter water in PS2 games, and it's the sort of tech that you'd assume impossible on ... » Read More

Mention Link today and most people will envisage the young wolf boy that inhabits Twilight Princess complete with his signature sword, shield and green tunic. And while theres no denying that this is certainly the best Link has ever looked, hes come along way since he first graced our consoles way back in 1986. Of course it comes as no surprise that Link has taken on a wealth of different looks over his years of adventuring and exploring. He began his adventures as a tiny sprite in The Legend ... » Read More

DS - The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass - The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass voicechat rumour still just a rumour Being the most keenly anticipated game for the DS since the excellent New Super Mario Bros can only mean one thing for Link's first outing on DS: rumours, rumours and more rumours.

So what can fans expect from the Phantom Hourglass? The ability to play as Ganondorf in wi-fi multiplayer battles? Or maybe Link will get some new weapons, like a sawn off shot gun or a chainsaw? These sorts of rumours are hard to swallow, mostly because we just made them up. Some speculation however seems unwilling to die, no matter how vigorously it's beaten back with the fact stick.

DS - The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass - GDC: Zelda DS - first multiplayer details Hidden in the corner of Nintendo's GDC expo booth is the first mutliplayer demonstration of Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass.

The demo pits two players against each other in a Pac-Man-style battle mode, with one player controlling Link and the other guiding three enemies around the map using stylus-drawn directions.

The player controlling Link is tasked with collecting as many Tri-Force pieces littered around the stage as possible, though the larger the pieces you pick up the slower you will be able t move. Once the baddie player successfully captures our green-hatted hero roles will swap and the game goes on.

Back in March, Nintendo announced The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass for the DS. The touch-screen adventure would be a continuation of The Wind Waker's cutesy, animated style and ship in the fourth quarter of this year. Nintendo's own press site still claims this is the case. However, searching for the game on pretty much any retailer's website shows a 2007 release is in the cards. EB Games claims March, Best Buy says January 31... no one knows. It makes sense, however, to not spit ... » Read More

It's still Zelda as you know it - townsfolk to talk to, grass to cut, dungeons to explore - but using the DS stylus for all actions, issuing directions for Link rather than direct control.
