They are being sold in Japan for 300 yen ($2.50) each, which is around the same price as other capsule toys. Import stores are probably stocking these too. So check around and if you’re lucky you’ll [...]

I started it over the weekend and the adventure begins when Link gets separated from Tetra. He awakens on an island, without a sword and a shield to defend himself with. The first thing you have [...]

What is Link [...]

Wow. The first six minutes of the Legend of Zelda: The Phantom Hourglass filmed for the world to see and it looks amazing. The video also demonstrates the touch screen control, but since it is early in the game there is no combat footage. I can’t wait to get my hands on Zelda and a [...]

You might have seen some of this video footage before since parts of it were used previously, but this extended trailer gives a really good idea of what to expect in the Phantom Hourglass. More of the game’s mechanics are fleshed out in the video like how you pull objects and throw bombs. If you [...]

  After loving multiplayer Zelda in the Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventure, I’m glad to see that the Phantom Hourglass has a multiplayer mode too. Things are a little different since the battle mode is one on one where one player guides Link and the other controls three Phantom Guardians. If you’re playing as [...]

Tingle’s Balloon Fight is one of those “rare” or hard to get games that you have to order directly from Club Nintendo in Japan. It’s a stretched out version of Balloon Fight from the NES except instead of playing as one of the Balloon Fighter’s you play as Tingle. Since the game is stretched over [...]
