    Zero Punctuation And The Phantom Hourglass

    This week's Zero Punctuation sees Yahtzee go head to head with Nintendo's reviewer masterpiece, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, coming to the inevitable conclusion that the next Zelda game would be much better were it Okami. This is of course true for most games released these days, but I'm not going to point that out to him lest he disembowel me with a well aimed, super-speed tirade. More »

    New DS Colors, Bundles Coming This Holiday

    Two Nintendo DS colors will be coming to North America later this year according to information creeping out of retailers gearing up for the post-Thanksgiving holiday spend frenzy. The two will be bundled with copies of the system's best-selling games, with a rose DS paired with Nintendogs and the gold DS packed with a copy of The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. Each features a decoration on the outside of the top half, the former a paw print, the latter a Triforce. More »

    Frankenreview, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (DS)

    Since the last scene of the GameCube's Wind Waker, we've been craving cel-shaded Link at the lust level we generally reserve for booze, pantsu and headshots. So his triumphant return in The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass for the DS had us...how can we put this gently...playing the DS without a stylus. More »

    Nintendo's Friendly Text Reminder

    In case you weren't aware, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass hits stores today, so be sure to run to your local store and pick up a copy. I almost forgot myself, but luckily Nintendo had my number, thanks to the Zelda Contest I told you about last month. This blinked onto my phone an hour ago:
    Zelda fans make sure you get to stores today to grab The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass for your Nintendo DS.
    Funny thing...I don't remember authorizing text messages when I sent in my contest entry (just to see how the contest worked mind you), and the rules for said contest don't mention anything about them contacting me outside of letting me know if I won, so it's rather annoying to be getting these unsolicited. Can't seem to find any way to get myself excluded from the messages either. Well at least I didn't forget the game, right?

    New York Phantom Hourglass Launch Spectacular

    Halo 3 isn't the only game that gets a fancy shmancy New York City launch event. Nintendo is kicking off the release of The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass with a party on Sunday the 30th at the Nintendo World Store in Rockefeller Plaza. Fans will be able to get their picture taken with a Link facsimile, participate in costume contests and trivia quizzes, and from 2-4PM they'll be able to buy the game a day before release! The event runs from 1-4PM, with the costume contest taking place during the last hour, so you have extra time to squeeze into those tights. The only reason I didn't stay after the Halo event for this launch is that I am pretty damn exhausted. I'll be there in spirit though, even if I end up sleeping past 4PM.

    Nintendo Delivers Phantom Hourglass E-card

    The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass hits stores on October 1st, and to honor the occasion Nintendo has created a Phantom Hourglass e-card, complete with an exclusive video of the game in action. They've also created a handy-dandy countdown widget on their Zelda.com site, suitable for MySpace pages and personal blogs alike. Two doses of Zelda goodness to keep you going until the big day.

    Nintendo's Easy Zelda Contest

    Want a chance to win a trip for two to New York City, complete with a $1000 shopping spree at Nintendo World, $500 spending money, a special edition gold Nintendo DS and a copy of Phantom Hourglass? No? Well okay then. I'll just sit here texting 'Zelda' to '20769' on my cell. Then I will receive a series of three trivia questions, which if replied to with the correct answers automatically enter me to win!. As a matter of fact, I just followed those directions, and the questions were ridiculously easy. Granted I won't be able to actually win the grand prize or any of the nine gold DS Lites reserved for finalists as a member of the press, so the more of you that enter the less likely it is I have to sadly decline or dress up like a woman and try to fake my way through it. No one needs to see that. Slightly more coherent details after the jump! More »

    New Nintendo Tchotchkes Make Owning Keys Fun Again

    I'm perfectly content to go keychain-less, as I generally wear skin-tight leather pants everywhere I go, but I may have to revise my policy for a pair of new import goodies from Bandai and Yujin. On the left we have the mini Wii-mote projector, one that throws a spotlight featuring the Nintendo character of your choice—as long as it's from Super Paper Mario, Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess or Wario Ware Smooth Moves—upon anything your heart desires.

    Camp Hyrule Open For Business

    Nintendo's annual Camp Hyrule festivities have commenced, giving The Legend of Zelda fans an understated opportunity to hang out anonymously and safely online with their peers. Plenty of poorly designed Flash-based games with camping themes await them, along with a heavily moderated bulletin board and loads of other goodies. Surprisingly, the site is barren of any mention of the next Zelda game, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass for the Nintendo DS. More »

    Simple 2000: The Japanese Software Chart

    The Media Create sales charts are in for the week of June 25 to July 1, once again showcasing the dominance of the Nintendo DS and the power of the firmly entrenched PlayStation 2. Lots of new debuts this week, including Donkey Kong Taru Jet Race for Wii and Ratchet & Clank: Going Mobile for PSP. Last week's king of the sales hill, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, is still holding strong. Make the jump for the rest of the top thirty. More »

    Phantom Hourglass Ch-Ch-Changes

    During development, games changes. Of course they do! That's why it's called development. The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass is no different. German site Nintendo-Online has a fistful of comparisons up of old trailer footage and current in-game screens. The difference, while not huge, is there — though, the old trailer images look slightly washed out. That just might be an image quality issue with the trailer screens that were sourced. The big changes seem to be placement of icons and whatnot. Call it last minute tinkering! More »

    Famitsu Scores Zelda DS Almost Perfect

    The bad news? According to Famitsu, by way of NeoGAF, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass is not as good as Nintendogs. Sorry. The good news, however, for anyone looking forward to the continuing cel shaded adventures of Link, is that Famitsu loved the crap out of the game, passing numerical judgment to the tune of a 39/40.
