They're a couple of days old now, but I have been consumed by another Zelda game on my recently acquired Wii so haven't had a chance to post.
The Phantom Hourglass is looking like it will be a very nice addition to the Zelda series. The graphics are very Wind Waker influenced (Link and the other characters in particular) whilst the environments look like they have been pulled out of the Snes version, A Link to the Past, and given a bit of 3d gloss.
I'm still intrigued by the 100% stylus based controls and have this one pencilled in to buy (it's Zelda, I'm afraid I would buy it regardless). Apparently the game is due out in Japan on the 23rd of June, so a release this year in the UK (and US) is more than possible.

Blimey that's a lot of screenshots. I didn't know you have a Wii, cool. I really should get one but I have somany PC games and older console games still to play/complete (I'm a completionist).
I got a Wii a couple of weeks ago - that's why I've stopped posting quite so often
I'll be back to normal soon
Yeah I've fallen behind with my game hense the lack of posts. Really want to finish off some reviews but I've been working all day today trying to catch up (oh and watching the snooker)
