I'd say it is stupid, but Nintendo's done worse and made it work, and this does look good, a nice twist with having zelda with you most of the game......*still waits for a game staring zelda saving link that doesn't blow*
I've seen this before on another site. A very revealing Trailer indeed, and one that makes me want to play the game.
A funny thing to note, is the point at 1:35. It seems that the Zelda in this game seems deathly afraid of rats. xD
The only other thing I have to say about this is... why did they give Zelda a bigger role sooner? And why when they DID do it is it for a handheld title, which NEVER get as much recognition as the console ones? Why not give Zelda some spotlight on the consoles?
Some might be just as good, but better... I think alot of people would disagree with you there.
Gameplay, graphics and everything is better normally because they know that THIS is what the fans are most hyped over. Most handheld titles, though true to the series, are normally only filler games to the next big console title.
I'm not saying they aren't good, far from it. All I'm saying is, it's a known fact that Nintendo puts more effort into their console games than their handheld titles.
I don't really care if all the Ocarina of Time fanboys disagree or not. The handheld Zelda games are fantastic, just as are the consoles. Some being better is only a matter of opinion.
I'm not just talking about which games people prefer, you're missing the point.
It's a fact that console titles are MADE better than handheld ones. There's other reasons besides preference... consoles are more advanced than Handhelds too.
It does come down to your style, but the fact remains. Consoles are always a couple of generations ahead of handhelds.
Also, who said anything about Ocarina of Time? I actually think Majora's Mask is a better than OoT because of how deep the story is.
All I said is that the handhelds are always less advanced than consoles. It's a well known fact that the DS has technology akin to the Nintendo 64, NOT the Wii or even the Gamecube.
I never said the game wouldn't be good, but no matter how good it is, normally the console games trump the handheld ones, because there is more they can do with consoles.
That is not to say it wouldn't be good though. As you said, they seem to have spent a good amount of time on Spirit Tracks.
I'm actually really wanting to play this game now! It looks like it has a deeper plot than I thought it would have...XD They did a good thing releasing this trailer!
Yay! Looks like this game won't be a disappointment after all! :-D (if you're wondering why I'm saying that, it's because a game I was looking forward to for a long time just came out, and they ended it horribly!)
Me, i couldn't care about spirit tracks before. And now 3 minutes have changed my mind forever more. Good job Nintendo. Another wonderful addition on the way.
I'm not sure why this made me want this. mAYBE IT WAS sATAN'S eXPRESS. mAYBE IT WAS iMpa-on-wheels. Or maybe it was Phantom gameplay and Zelda having a use!
Has anyone noticed how the armored knight moves at the same time as link? Could this mean they enabled button controls while the stylus can control it? I hope. Phantom Hourglass was a disappointment and took a step back to old, gimmicky DS games.
this actually looks cool. tells a lot. but can't wait for the other one for wii. this will help with the waiting. man, it's much closer than I thought!
OMG SO ZELDA IS THE PHANTOM! My god but this sucks since she's like the Cubis sister but instead of being a pussy who's scared of spiders, she's scared of rats.
Because this will be so good, i don't think Zelda Wii will come out so soon. They need to let Spirit Tracks flurish in the shleves first. so i have a feeling Zelda Wii will come out....maybe this time next year, or maybe after that. It will definately feature heavily at E3 2010.
While a disagree that a second Temple of the Ocean king would be bad, you will be happy to know that there will be zero backtracking thanks to unlockable stairwells.
well, this certainly explains why it's called "spirit" tracks. Seeing as I didn't really like Phantom Hourglass all that much I don't really expect much out of this one but I'll still be getting it regardless. Probably just ask for it for Christmas or something.
And it apears Earthbounding can see the future... :P
I'll do it! I'll buy the game! After all, PH had fun controls, but you never got to use them, thanks to that stupid Temple of the Ocean King. And the plot was non-existant.
looks awesome. the graphics are incredible. i loved phantom hourglass except for the ocean king temple. hopefully there's not something like that here.
That's the Spirit Tower in ST. However it's definitely better because you don't have to replay it to get further anymore, you can skip to where you left off.
I think its true because i saw a video and the guy speaking for tlozst said that it takes place like i thinks he said a century after PH and so its a different link not sure tho
