Iwata also revealed for the first time that a new game called The Legend of Zelda(R): Phantom Hourglass would be released for Nintendo DS later this year

And description from video.

Iwata takes the stage. There's one more new adventure for you today: Zelda DS. Short clip plays: cel-shaded-style graphics. Top screen: mostly maps. Action is on the lower screen. Use touch screen to draw things -- transitioning the bottom screen input to the top. Launches later this year -- from Aonuma and team (makers of Wind Waker).

Here is a video of the new game.

Wind Waker inspired. :D

Phantom Hourglass? That's a cool sounding subtitle. The game looks great too.

You just had to include the bit about cel-shaded graphics, didn't you, BaB? :D

No, no, no :nono: You won't have any luck creating a war in this thread.

Wow, that looks very nice for a DS game. This should be another hit from Ninty just based off the movie

I wasn't creating a war.

I love the cel-shading look. Wind Waker is actually my favorite Zelda game. So I was just pointing out reusing that style. ;) :D

Well that's interesting... Pseudo-2D/3D... And it looks like its making good use of the touch screen. I'm excited ^_^

So, I wonder what if any story connections this has to TWW. The sailing and the style point to some kind of connection (although, of course, TMC and the FS games didn't have any kind of releated plot to TWW either...).

And we have another fairy O_O
