Zelda games are all incredible, but the series shines particularly bright on handhelds.
The future could be filled with revived Nintendo DS classics. Hopefully it happens!
My kid yesterday proclaimed he liked the DS more than the Switch because the controls work on the go. Then I asked if he would rather have Monster Hunter Stories 2 on Steam or Switch and he chose Steam. So proud!
The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass has been registered and trademarked in Australia. What does this mean for the franchise on its 35th anniversary? Will we be getting a remake of this DS classic?
It would need to be completely redone if it is coming to the Switch. Those touch controls would make it impossible in docked mode.
Who says nintendo has to go to the trouble of making it playable docked. Could just tell everyone to play handheld. They're nintendo after all. I've seen ppl defend nintendo for less so don't say it couldn't happen lol
A port would be a lot better than using the awful stylus movement on DS, be cool if they did the same for spirit tracks.
Poor year for the DS. Only Zelda: Phantom Hourglass is a "must have", the rest are only normal or acceptable games.
Could have swore a lot of those came out in '06. But then again it's a European site, so maybe those games were released there. Funny how Elite Beat Agents won a lot of awards, even though it's Japanese cousin is better by a long shot.
And I just noticed that Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney is on that list (the first in the series) Maybe it's a typo, but it still made me laugh.
