I LOVE the dungeons in Zelda. One of my largest complaints with Wind Waker was the large amount of side quests, and minimal amount of dungeons. I like a good balance though, with plenty of extra stuff to do and items to get between the dungeons as well. I wouldn't want to just run from dungeon to dungeon.

I did the same thing. That game forces you to perfect your skills. I don't think it's possible to get 2000 if you make even one mistake. Cool that you get so many ship parts from it though.
Yeah, I did get some neat ship parts from all of my trying. Even if you do hit every target, you still won't always get 2000, you have to hit every target as fast as you can so that you get enough targets to reach the point in the first place, PLUS making sure you hit all of them. I think that's the most trouble I've ever had with a shooting game in Zelda.

The more I play it more I can't fathom somebody disliking the game, it's a blast through and through.

Aren't ALL main-quest Zelda games basically remakes of the original NES Zelda? I mean, they're sequels and have different story-lines for the most part, with different game mechanics and plot devices (light-world/dark world, time travel, wind waking, transforming into a wolf...), but they're basically the re-telling of Link destroying Ganon and saving the Princess. Even if they are different Links and Zeldas on the timeline, it's still basically the same game again and again. Somehow they all still manage to be excellent, however.
I just don't think it's fair to pick on TP for that.

Zelda direct sequels never mean much more than that it's the same Link immediately after the events of the previous game. I wasn't expecting Wind Waker 2.0, just the Wind Waker Link in a new adventure.

Yeah, I don't really understand the Ocean King hate either. It seems people are just having more issues with the actual IDEA of a timed dungeon, rather than with the execution.

Gotta say I disagree with this one. I've only beaten the second temple so far, but I'm loving it. It's a fun and interesting new way to play, and it has the fun look and environment of Wind Waker. It may be on the easy side, but Zelda certainly isn't known for being hard (at least not the 3D versions).
I'm having a great time and waiting anxiously 'til I get off work so that I can play some more!

I definitely agree with Ian on the "Zelda at least once a year" point. It's my favorite series by far, and I buy every major release, but I didn't realize Phantom Hourglass was out until I walked into Best Buy and saw it there. Now, I should have been waiting months and months anticipating that every day like I used to, but recently I've been overloaded with Zelda I guess. I long for the days of waiting several years between major releases, instead of how it is now, where I patiently await the release of the "real" Zelda games (keep in mind this goes for Mario, Metroid, and Starfox as well) while wading through all the crap ones they shoveled out at me.

I am absolutely in love with this game. I was very hesitant about the touch screen controls after hearing about it, but actually playing it I'm having a blast. It took a little getting used to, but it was nice to have a *new* Zelda experience. I don't mind the timed portions at all, I mean, here it's only one dungeon for short periods of time. In Majora, it was the WHOLE GAME.
The only thing I'm having trouble with is the "rolling". It says you have to make little circles at the edges of the screen to get Link to do it, but I find myself having to try at least four times before ever actually getting him to roll. And then, it's usually only rolling to the left of rolling down, but I guess that has more to do with how I hold the stylus than the game itself... maybe.

I don't know about the Wii version, but judging by the 360 version's demo (which made me want to dig my heart out with a wooden, splintered spoon) I won't be picking this up.
This game managed to make me NOT enjoy playing Venom. I thought it wasn't possible...

BTW, does the new Final Fantasy main male character look like a girl, too?
Or is it actually a girl this time?
Surprisingly, I haven't heard much about this game so far. I don't think I've been excited for a FF game since X.
