Games Radar Review - The Legend of Zelda Phantom Hourglass

"Grab your stylus and plot a swirly course for one of the finest Zelda adventures yet"

Games Radar review the brand new Legend of Zelda game : Phantom Hourglass and it score an amazing 9/10
"As a single-player DS experience, Phantom Hourglass is unmatched. It lacks the legs of Final Fantasy III - PH's nearest rival - but there's little in that that can match Hourglass working at full power. The game is, in every way, the adventure of a lifetime. Whether slicing through the ocean, smiting the finest bosses the Zelda team have dredged up in years (special mention to one fight carried out from the first-person perspective of the boss himself) or simply whacking cuccos with your sword - it's one dazzling highlight after another. And we'd gladly sail the seas to play this gem."

"Pro
* Wonderful stylus-driven controls
* New life in tired Zelda conventions
* Dungeon levels are spectacular
Con
* Sparse side-quests
* Purists might not like changes
* On the ocean... again"

sweet. I know I'm one of the few Zelda fans that actually liked Wind Walker so I'm pretty happy this game is finally here ^^ also happy it's getting some (hopefully genuine) good reviews.

I loved the wind waker ive played every zelda game except those crappy ones everyone jokes about and minish cap, which my friend is gonna let me borrow. I cant wait to get this game. Talk about a great way to kill time at work...

The only Zelda game I have ever played and completed is "The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX" for the GameBoy Color. I fell in love with that game.

Since then I have not played a single Zelda game. I think I might end that by picking this up.

Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword lol

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!

Probably an emulated port or something as low effort

Jeriphro1170d ago

It would need to be completely redone if it is coming to the Switch. Those touch controls would make it impossible in docked mode.

phoenixwing1170d ago

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.
