Default New GameCube zelda: Tetra Trackers

THE LEGEND OF ZELDA®: TETRA’S TRACKERS™
Format: Nintendo GameCube™
Launch Date: TBD
ESRB: RP (Rating Pending)
Game Type: Action/Adventure
Accessories: Memory Card
GCN GBA Cable

Players: 1-4
MSRP: TBD

Game Summary
Tetra, the leader of the pirates, has put forth a challenge: Link must race his way through various settings, collecting stamps from Tetra’s pirate cohorts. To rise to the challenge, he will have to use all his exploration and navigation skills. Accepting this hefty task, players search for pirates placed strategically around Pirate Island and receive a stamp from each one as proof that they actually found them. Pirates must be found in the correct order, so players rely upon map information and hints provided by Tetra through the fabled Pirate’s Charm. Up to four players compete to see how many stamps they can collect before time runs out.

Features
Experience a new level of connectivity between Nintendo GameCube and Game Boy Advance. Compete against one another to prove your skills as trackers.

Control four different colored versions of Link, from the Legend of Zelda series, including characters from The Legend of Zelda®: The Wind Waker™. Tetra, the young leader of the pirates, guides you as you race to gather stamps from her pirate followers.

Use the Game Boy Advance as a game screen and a controller, and race against up to three friends. Exclusive information appears on each player’s screen, while Tetra guides the group along the way with cues that appear on Nintendo GameCube.

Very interesting. I wonder if the replay will be very long or not.

indeed.

I mean, the multiplayer aspects could be fun but...it sounds like you are going to have a couple of friends that own a GBA...which I dont...so there's nothing there for me...they had better not treat this as a full priced game...because it sounds gimicky.

Leave it to nintendo.

What a load of crap. They could have made "The wind waker 2" and EVERYONE would have been happy. Instead they insist on shoving this crap on us.

This better not be the new Zelda game that's supposed to come out soon.

It may be a milker, it could be another Mario Party and turn out being incredibly fun and addictive.

this is a very stupid idea from the looks of things... well, 4-GBAs=cool idea, but very few people are going to be able to set up this game, and the concept of the game is terrible.

Well, it's better than nothing, and besides, perhaps it shows that Nintendo may construct budget GC-GBA titles. Or then again, maybe not....

I don't know whether the game is going to be fun or not. Most likely it will be interesting. But I know that I don't like this. Aside from showing up in the Smash Bros. games and Soul Calibur 2, Link has always shown up only in traditional Zelda games. Now he's being put into some gimmicky game that really could have been done just as well without him. Really, what's so Zelda about this game?

The way things are going, Nintendo's turning Link into the next Mario. What's next? Playing golf?

I just don't understand it. This game isn't going to push systems. And there are plenty of other games that will demonstrate GBA-connectivity better. The only thing I can see resulting from this game is some pissed off fans.

I've heard recently that Nintendo is just showing this game at E3 to feel out the audience response. If people react poorly, the game will be scrapped.

I really hope it's true. After all, I can't imagine that the audience reaction to this game will by any good.
