is there a video of some sort?

It's only been news for 45 minutes. Give it some time

I've heard that the bottom screen is where all the action will take place and be very touch interactive. The top screen will be for maps but also puzzles reflecting the action below.

how you know it isnt? you only see the bottom screen

nickels · 23 Mar 2006 at 20:35

ok never mind, can see top screen now, not 3d, dam it i want 3d

EasyG · 23 Mar 2006 at 20:36

i can't even see link .

horrible pictures imo.

It could be 3d from looking at those pics, in it a Metal Gear Solid way. A third person game wouldn't work too well on the DS IMO.

ColEx · 23 Mar 2006 at 20:48

i just read ign... they says its like 3d but from top view. sounds good to me

Didnt mario 64 and Zelda OOT run on the same engine, there for a 3d zelda would run just fine on the DS

punky_munky · 23 Mar 2006 at 20:58

Well it is 3d so stop complaining

ColEx · 23 Mar 2006 at 21:01
