" That trailer was slightly disappointing, i didn't like the sound of link's voice."

Are you sure you're not hearing the fairy's voice?  Link's voice is nearly identical to that of his recent games...

Ian, I think the touchscreen controls are going to be pretty intuitive.
That said, I also think they're going to include d-pad functionality as well.  I honestly believe both control schemes will be available.

(By the way, I think using the fairy  as a cursor is brilliant)

I'll agree that using a fairy is a pretty good idea.  That way it doesn't take you out of the game.  I liked the fairies in the N64 Zeldas for the same reason.  It shows a real attention to detail.

Yeah, I would most definitely not worry about control...They will very likely go the same path as Animal Crossing and provide both D-pad and touchscreen movement...

So, this blonde walks into a bar and asks the bartender for a "Double Entendre"...so he gave it to her.

Ooh, I think you just stumbled across the Revolution's real name: The Nintendo Innuendo.

I find the touch screen control in Animal Crossing annoying, personally.  I like using the stylus for just about everything in the game except moving.  I just wish it was possible to smack people with the net without using the touch screen.  Anyway, I hope (and I think it's reasonable to expect) that d-pad controls will exist in Phantom Hourglass.  I do like that doing a spin attack is a simple matter of encircling Link, though.  It's too hard to do a quick circle on the d-pad.

Hahaha, love that name PartyBear.  Sounds awesome, even if it doesn't make sense.
Maybe they could make a dating sim and name it that. :P

I guess that's official artwork?  It's weird that they have new artwork but no new screenshots.
Too ultra-chibi for my taste, but I'm still interested in the game, of course.
(Also, TINGLE YES)

It's like they're compensating for Twilight Princess.

The games have such drastically different feels, I don't know how much sense it would make.

perhaps you could have some software that would let you view your maps on your DS so you can write on them.

Considering the two games are releasing around the same time, I'd be more surprised than not if there weren't any connectivitiy of some sort...

It seems they've abandoned the Wind Waker character style and are going with something much more like the old manual art.

Where are you seeing this Artimus...

Edit: Oh you mean the hand drawn art...  The game definately still looks like Wind Waker.

Wow. So that scan basically confirms WiFi multiplayer. I knew there was multiplayer (some mini-game), but this is WiFi compatible and it looks like it's similar to Four swords.

Four swords and a new top down Zelda, in one package?!
