Default The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

Man this game is great. It has this really strange foothold between both handheld and console Zelda games. I appreciate that they went forward with a touch only interface. To have done it half-assed would really have made it feel gimicky. As it is, it's very functional. The only thing I have any trouble with is rolling, it's a bit clumsy (but as it's an unnecessary move, not ultimately worth much complaint).

Anybody else pick it up?

I'll need a DS for this. I just don't like the European colors enough. I want the black/red one.

By the way, it's "The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass", without The before Phantom. Just like Twilight Princess didn't have The in front of it.

I've already encountered a game-ripped soundtrack of it online, which I'm saving for after I've played the game.

I realized that after I posted it and neglected to fix it because I just didn't care.

Even if I edit it now, it won't fix it from the thread list, only once you're in the thread. So no point.

*Edit: Fixed it anyway, just for you.*

Solution seems simple: Sell the car, buy games with the money.
