Nintendo is known for using their brilliantly designed character franchises to help sneak their hardware into people's homes. Games like Mario Kart, Metroid, and Mario 64 DS help move Nintendo DS consoles off the store shelves. Now, The Legend of Zelda is coming to the Nintendo DS too, making a DS specific premier in a game called Phantom Hourglass expected to release later in 2006. But what can we expect from the Hourglass? A 3D adventure made to look like The Wind Waker? A top-down adventure like the excellent GBA titles that have come so far, such as A Link to the Past? Let's take a look at what we know about Zelda: Phantom Hourglass in the days after its announcement.
So when will this Zelda Windwalker look alike come out?
Heres a video from Nintendo.

If this is somehow "forcing" you to keep your DS, then you're not the demographic the DS is aimed at.
