This is by far the most awaited game for the Nintendo DS. If you've been hesitating to purchase this handheld, this game should definitely motivate you.

 

I'll be the first in line to purchase it! :D

BREAKING NEWS: Voice chat NOT in Phantom Hourglass

 

Voice chat not in Phantom Hourglass. If it does, the scan says nothing about it. That’s why we marked the story as a rumor earlier today. It appears that the person that translated it did get the translation wrong. At least they originally warned us! The official translation of the entire scan is below, thanks to the good people at The Hylia.

 

“The beginning of an adventure with a new feeling that challenges you to use the stylus!

 

The newest game of the Legend of Zelda series fully exploits the functions of the Nintendo DS! Let us introduce this game’s greatest feature: the stylus system! In the newest installment of the series, you can draw with the stylus the path the boomerang will follow or the route of your ship. It also uses the Nintendo Wi-Fi connection for a versus mode.

 

Smash via Wi-Fi! The one-on-one vs. mode

In the versus mode, you take turns to play as the offense and the defense as you scramble for the force pieces on the map. The objective when you’re playing as the offense is getting the force pieces and taking them to your base. As the defense, you’ll have to control three pursuers by drawing their movements in order to hunt down Link.

 

screen captions:

Lineback [romaji: Rainbakku], the greedy sailor.

Link ventures with Lineback. He’s got an evil-looking face, what’s his goal?

 

Throw the boomerang!

Aim for the switch surrounded by walls with your boomerang. Think well and draw its path.

 

Fire the cannon!

The ship follows the route you draw. Attack the enemies that show up using the cannon.

 

The sword controls change

Touch an enemy or slide the stylus around Link and he’ll swing his sword.

 

Hiragana indicators!

During the game, touch the kanji you can’t read and its furigana will appear. Little kids will be happy with this.

 

A quick point-match playing in the offense and defense.

It’s a battle in which the offensive controls the main character and the defensive draws the moves of the pursuers. “

I really can't wait for this, either. I didn't really like and of the GBA Zeldas, so I'm hoping it will be the best handheld Zelda since OoS and OoA.
