I am really enjoying this game, on the third island to get the third spirit, well stuck at the moment though

I've said it before and I'll say it again...

THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS AN NTSC HANDHELD GAME!

Completed it in 5 days, was gutted when i finished it, easily the best game on the DS so far.

There were probably more new ideas in this than there were in The Twilight Princess.

Lol , ok you got me

Anyway , the version released in the part of the world where they use NTSC for their TV standard and almost speak english like we do came out 1st of the month but thanks to the Royal Mail strikes my copy only turned up yesterday

Better ?

Actually on the subject of no NTSC handheld games what about titles for the new PSP slim with TV output, are they not coded with that in mind ?

Anyway I've just got the 3rd spirit - taking my time on it and playing a couple of hours here and there and yeah having to redo the sea king temple again and again is a bit annoying.

I though I'd read in a review that at some point you get a warp of some kind to half way through it so you don't have to do the 1st floors each time , is that not true.

Good game, very similar in style to twillight princess but with a few new additions, i really like the boomerang idea and the whole sailing theme gives the game huge map quest feel to it!

just started playing it today, havnt had much time on it though just done the first very small dungeon. but so far im enjoying it and cant wait to get stuck in.

controls are annoying at first but good once your used to it. gives me high hopes for ninja gaiden ds

Think im having to wait until XMAS for this, been really looking forward to it though have loved all the other zelda games

I got this on Saturday and I think I'm pretty far through now - I've got 2 of the ores and just picked up the northeastern sea map.
I hate the temple of the sea king, it really has to be the worst idea of any game I've ever played

. I know they had to do something with the hourglass, but imo it would have been better used in every temple rather than making you do the same awful and boring puzzles over and over again.
