Looks to be one of the best games for the DS this year. I'm hoping mine will be in by the end of the week.

After playing Twilight Princess its going to take me some time to go back to the cartoony look of the Wind Waker.

Yeah, I've been waiting for this for years. Frickin' YEARS. 'Bout damn time it came out.

I'm kinda apprehensive...the touch-only controls seem like they'll be less effective than standard buttons; plus, I just don't want to use touch controls.

Also, from what I hear, it's a pretty dumbed-down Zelda for the masses, which could be a very very bad thing. Still, I'm picking it up as soon as it hits shelves.

My girlfriend is getting it whenever it arrives, I couldn't believe the graphics that they squeezed out of the little ds I hope it runs smoothly.

I've gotten to the start of the second dungeon, and the game has been great so far.

It's a definite departure from standard Zelda fare, though (and oftentimes that is not for the best).
