Nintendo President Satoru Iwata has confirmed the development of The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass for Nintendo DS during his keynote speech at the Game Developers Conference.

The game, which is set for release during 2006, sports a similar visual style to The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker together with a host of DS touch-screen enabled puzzles. Iwata-san confirmed that the game will be playable at this year's E3.

We'll have more on The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass shortly...

I have played and beaten Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess, and Wind Waker. So, does anyone who own the game think its great? No spoilers please!

	By: Anonymous Added:Mon 29th Dec 2008 02:32, Post No: 26 I bought and played this game as my second Legend of Zelda game. My first one being Oracle of Ages on the Gameboy Color. By the 4th time I had to go through the Temple of the Ocean King, I knew this game was not going to be as glorious as OoA. From time to time I like to pick up this game and attempt to use the D-pad only to discover that it does barely anything. I played the multiplayer about once and will never play it again. It is based on the worst part of the game (the Temple of the Ocean King), and it is not very fun at all. It is annoying actually. Also, there are way too many locations and the transportation can't provide. In OoA, every area that you had to access had a tricky puzzle like entrance that kept you busy outside of the temples. Here, you shoot the cannon at some rocks while on a pre-planned route on an underpowered and wimpy looking ship, whos captain happens to be a jerk. I did put aside my frustrations over the Temple of the Ocean King and beat the game, or what seemed like beating it. It went through all of the cutscenes of me rescuing Tetra and all of the sudded the ghost ship is back and I have to do the same battle again. I do, thinking that something happened with the save file but after a second beating of the final boss, the ghost ship still is there. At least in other games when you beat the game you beat the game for good. This seems maybe like a cheap way out for Nintendo and Capcom to add post-game playability. The graphics are as expected on a handheld system, but they look cartoonish and slightly cheap. It's as if I was put in control of the characters of South Park. I admit that the use of the dual screens during boss battles was excellent and the map feature where you could draw to make notes was a big help. I guess I expected too much out of this game and, if I were to rate it, I would give it a 6 out of 10.
