Hmmm. I was kinda enjoying the trailer until I saw that it was the same as the release trailer just added with the intro of the game.

So, brave pirate-princess Zelda is scared of rats? :) Sheesh, guys. 21st century and all that. Dudes are scared of them too!

Zelda looks semi-useful for once and is not immediately kidnapped.

Zelda, as always, is with you in spirit.

@Shaanyboi: Seriously? I guess they hit reset with each one, but I thought the styles were similar enough that they might actually be carrying the Gamecube one forward.

The music is pretty darn good!

If Link jumped off a cliff I'd jump off a cliff too.

Looks like Phantom Hourglass with a train instead of a ship, and I couldn't be happier.

Shaanyboi on Nov. 23, 2009

@ahoodedfigure: Same visual style, yeah. They do REFERENCE WW/PH alot though, and there are even some characters (Niko specifically) from WW that even appear as really really old guys.

I wonder if Giant Bomb will ever get set-up to capture video from the DS. A quick-look of this game would be nice, as I am kind of on the fence about wanting to play it. I am feeling tired of the Zelda formula, especially after how amazing Wind Waker was.

ahoodedfigure on Nov. 24, 2009

@Shaanyboi: The goofy thing is that when they reference actual characters it makes you feel like it could be the same place. Like, this Link is the new generation of the Link from before, and that this is the Wind Waker world with proper drainage ditches. Zelda games are usually fun no matter what to me, though.
