Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks Trailer

I’ve never played the Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass for the Nintendo DS, but I hear that it’s a solid and really fun handheld title, if not one of the better Zelda titles. Nintendo has just introduced a new DS Zelda game, Spirit Tracks, which might just continue the goodness. I have to say that some of the gameplay on here looks like a sweet time. Count me interested!

Did any of you play Phantom Hourglass? Thoughts?

  1. ya my thoughts are, why the hell and where the hell did they get this idea from…….there just draining the name “legend of zelda” they really gotta stop and make a decent zelda game once in a while……the best is either orcarina of time or majuras mask MAKE ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE

  3. PsychoKiller has got it right. I feel like somewhere a dead horse is being flogged. Every other Zelda title lives in the shadow of Ocarina of Time, so why not get back to the what made OoT? Sure titles like the Windwaker weren’t BAD, but they lacked that certain something that made OoT what it was.

  4. I loved the Wind Waker. Exploring was really fun on it.

    I prefer A Link to the Past over Ocarina of time, but I am old-school like that.

  5. Phantom Hourglass is sadly the only DS game I own, but it is a damn good one! I just love how well the touch screen works with the gameplay. It feels very natural after a bit and is a lot of fun. Never played Wind Waker though. I hope Spirit Tracks will continue this good Cartoon Link franchise though.

    Thats the way I see it, three main Zelda franchises. The old nes/2d type versions, 3d Ocarina of Time type franchise, and this newer “Toon Link” (as Super Smash calls it) franchise which is so far pretty good.

  6. I never completed PH but what I played I liked. I’ll definitely play this. On the topic of OoT being the best, I’ll go against you all and say Twilight Princess was better. You heard me.

  7. Oh yeah..some dead horse..really getting beaten here. The cuteness was okay in the other Zelda games, because there was a rustic feel to the games. Also, because you were’t fighting jiant, cute monsters, but actually “monster-ish” looking monsters, for the most part. This game is just too cute for me. And it seems to be all puzzle and no story. I mean, no back story was presented in this so I’m not sure, and I haven’t looked it up, but I doubt I’ll play it. I still haven’t played twilight princess, and thats the only Zelda game I haven’t played. And phantom hourglass (never liked the DS at first. Might get one sooner or later) I doubt I’ll get it. Zelda games seem to have less and less story these days and more rehash. At least in windwaker and Ages/Seasons/Four Swords/Link To The Past, etc., it wasn’t the same Link/Zelda/Link/Zelda. There was more depth to those games.

  8. I meant Links Awakening, not a link to the past. SOrry.[quote comment=”5542″]Oh yeah..some dead horse..really getting beaten here.
