Do you guys think that Legend of Zelda Phantom Hourglass will do better than Wind Waker? After all, it is the sequel to Wind Waker. Do you also think that this Zelda game will fine in the DS? Last question, is Ganondorf going to be in it or a new villian is going to be added?

Last question, is Ganondorf going to be in it or a new villian is going to be added? From the looks of it right now, it seems to be a really great game, but we'll have to wait and see. Yeah, the DS has been needing a LoZ game for a while now. I'm not sure if it's Ganondorf or not...on the latest handheld Zelda's it's been someone else terrorizing Hyrule.

It better be a new boss cuz I'm tired of having the same guy over and over and over again. Like in paper mario it was bowser, but they made the good idea of making a new boss for the second one. DUDE THERE SHOULD BE A PAPER MARIO ON THE DS!!! lol, sry about that.

If its the sequal to windwaker, its most likely ganon, I doubt its varty ( or whatever) form the other handheld games.

I severely doubt that ganon will be the boss, considering the way WW ended, I doubt he'll return so soon.
But yeah, this game's gonna ROCK!!
P.S. Paper Mario on DS would be the best thing since sliced bread!

Some are the puzzles are supposed to be inventive and pretty difficult. So I'll put them to the test. But yeah it looks good. Seeing its zelda it will get atleast 9/10.

The game has come out in Japan and in wikipedia the spoliers have been put on. The US is going to get the game in Oct. 1 while Europe is getting it on the 3rd of Oct. of this year.
Which reminds me, I need to update that long Legend of Zelda timeline that I did a long time ago.

Timeline? I remember that, but to be fair, zelda games are legends, much like viewaskew they dont correspond with eachother they're more of a story, and only a few fit in with eachother. Like each game does have ideals from others but because the legends are based on the same thing. The ones that correspond are, OOT > Majoras mask > windwaker. Because as it says on windwaker at the begining when link was traveling (to termina) thats when ganon came back and the world was flooded. And if this Phantom hourglass is a sequal, then that will be in this small segment of the series too.

Link, Tetra and the pirates head off to find some new land for the Hyrule but a phantom ship (ghost ship) pops out of no where and Tetra gets kidnapped somehow. That's where PH starts. I have the major spoilers for it but I'll safe it for later, unless any of you want it, just PM me for it. And trust me, it's going to be must better thatn the last Harry Potter book since I also have the spoilers for it too and I didn't even read the book.

I've thought that certain LoZ games create alternative timelines like I still think that In 4 Swords when you toke out the sword a new reality was created, in which TP took place. Just a thought.

Just a thought. i support the double timeline theory. (In OoT, one timeline is created when Zelda sends Link back in time, Majora's Mask is next, then others. Another timeline is after Zelda sends Link back, in that timeline, Zelda and Ganon are already adults, and there is no Link. Wind Waker is in that timeline)

The Zelda series' order of release is not the order chronology... bare with me. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is the first in this series and contains the first Link and Ganondorf's first appearance (not yet Ganon). Well, at the end of the game Ganondorf uses the Triforce of Power he becomes Ganon. Though vanquished by Link he is banished to the Sacred Realm by the Sages and Link is sent back it time. Thus, creating two separate timelines... now it gets complicated.
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask takes place after Ocarina of Time, but since the events of Ocarina did not occur in this timeline there is no Ganon(dorf) present in this game. The end of this game is also the last appearance of this Link.
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is the future of the Ocarina of Time timeline. Ganon breaks free from the Sacred realm and is ultimately defeated by another Link. As far as the consoles go, this is where this Link's story ends.
The Legend of Zelda takes place after A Link to the Past and stars a new Link and his ultimate showdown with Ganon to rescue Zelda (different Zeldas for the different Links in these games, too, just to let you know) and where Ganon is finally destroyed. In Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (same Link) Ganon only returns if you perish.
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess take place roughly about the same time. Huh? Both take place at least a hundred years after Ocarina of Time, but are the results of different events. The Wind Waker is what Hyrule would have become had Ganondorf conquered it Ocarina of Time (I guess this makes a third timeline). Twilight Princess is what Hyrule would have become had Ganon been executed rather than sealed in the Sacred Realm (does this make a fourth timeline?). My suggestion when they "write" the chronology, The Wind Waker is what happens had Ganon returned after Zelda II (this returns us to three timelines) and Twilight Princess is the future of the Majora's Mask's timeline (back to two). Its still a little complicated, but not so complicated.
That's all I got. I think my Four Swords idea was wrong.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions of the timeline for LoZ but one day Nintendo will tell us the real timeline. I'll still go with my own timeline since I used almost all the Zelda games.

Since I was the one who gave the major spoliers for the last Harry Potter book, I'm also going to give away the major spoliers for LoZ: HP for the DS since I just got the Japanese version of it just three days ago from ebay. The following spoilers is from Wikipedia.
[glow=red,2,300]Spoliers Ahead!!!! You have been warned!![/glow]
The game is a sequel to The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, set several months after its events. The opening retells the story of The Wind Waker. It tells the player how Tetra and her pirate crew picked up Link from Outset Island, how they found out that Tetra is Zelda, and how they defeated Ganondorf. The story that is told is left off with Link riding aboard Tetra's ship.
Link, Tetra and her pirates are at sea looking for the phantom ship rumored to ply the waters in that area, taking sailors and residents of the nearby islands. Tetra, convinced that the phantom ship is simply a bunch of trouble-making pirates, is determined to teach them that pirates have rules, too. When a mysterious ship appears in the middle of a dense fog, Tetra jumps aboard to explore. As the ship pulls away and begins to vanish with her on board, Link attempts to leap over and save her only to fall into the water himself.
After having a vision of Tetra being surrounded by darkness and calling for his help, Link is washed up on Mercay Island and meets a fairy named Ciela, whose appearance is similar to that of Navi from Ocarina of Time. The fairy has lost her memory and decides to team up with Link. On Mercay Island, Link meets an old man named Shiwan who provides him with a sword. Link travels to the far side of the island and rescues Captain Lineback from the Temple of the Ocean King.[4] In doing so, Link secures the use of Lineback's customizable steamship to travel throughout the overworld (initially restricted to a single quadrant, but expanded as he acquires more sea maps).
In the first half of the game, Link must rescue three colored fairies: the red Fairy of Power, Reef, from the Fire Temple; the blue Fairy of Wisdom, Nelly, from the Wind Temple; and the yellow Fairy of Courage from the Temple of Courage. However, upon defeating the Courage Temple's boss, a giant lobster known as Leyard, the rescued fairy is colorless and appears just like Ciela. Ciela wonders why this is, but cannot remember anything due to her amnesia. As Link and Lineback are about to leave Molde Island, Shiwan then arrives, using his magical walking stick to fuse Ciela with the colorless fairy to become a yellow fairy, revealing that she is the Fairy of Courage.
Lineback and Link then set off to pursue the phantom ship. After rescuing four sisters from imprisonment onboard, it is revealed that they are in fact phantoms themselves. Defeating them, Link obtains the key to where Tetra is being held, but he discovers that Tetra has been turned to stone. The old man Shiwan then arrives and reveals that he is in fact the Ocean King himself. According to him, a few years ago, an evil plant monster named Bellum appeared, hungry to eat life-force. He used this absorbed force to create powerful monsters, including the dungeon bosses and the phantoms in the Temple of the Ocean King, and used them to seal away the three fairies of Power, Wisdom, and Courage. Ciela, the Fairy of Courage, was able to split herself into two to flee, but in doing so, she also lost her memory. The Ocean King tried to fight Bellum but failed, and he too divided himself into two. Shiwan then created the Phantom Hourglass so that someone could use it to venture through the Temple of the Ocean King and defeat Bellum.
Shiwan then reveals that the only way to defeat Bellum is by obtaining a weapon known as the Phantom Sword. Shiwan asks Link to visit the smithy Sauz on his island. Sauz asks for three steel crystals as necessary ingredients for the sword; the scarlet, azure, and verdure steel crystals are on Goron Island, Ice Island, and Dead Man's Island, respectively.
Link sails to Goron Island where DaiGoron, the tribe's chief, asks him a quiz to admit him as one of the Gorons. Link defeats Bongorongo in the Goron's Temple and saves MaiGoron, a child Goron that becomes Link's controllable sidekick throughout the temple. Link then sails to Ice Island where he resolves the situation among the snow penguins and snow monkeys. The two races lived peacefully on either side of the island for 100 years, until recently, a snow monkey invaded the snow penguins' village and disguised itself as one of them. Link defeats the Gleeock in the Ice Temple and receives the Azure Steel. Lastly, Link sails off to Dead Man's Island where he must talk to the spirits of four knights and then finally Muto himself, the king of the ancient Daiku kingdom. Link defeats an ancient rock soldier known as Oisu and receives the final verdure steel crystal.
After taking the three steel crystals to Sauz and having him forge the Phantom Sword, Link returns to the Temple of the Ocean King and journeys to its lowest floor, where Bellum lurks. Link and Sierra defeat Bellum with the help of Phantom Spheres, which enable Link to freeze time and attack Bellum's weak spot. Bellum then appears to be defeated and Shiwan, the Ocean King, then arrives to warp them to safety. On Lineback's ship, Tetra is unfrozen and thanks Link for all his trouble. When Link is about to reach out to hold Tetra's hand, Bellum suddenly appears and kidnaps Tetra, then takes over the phantom ship. Link and Lineback chase after the phantom ship and attack Bellum's tentacles in a marine battle, sinking the ship. Finally, on the ship's ruins, Bellum possesses Lineback and turns him into a sword-wielding Darknut. Link defeats the possessed Lineback in a sword fight (as in the style of Ganondorf in Twilight Princess), and Bellum is finally defeated and disintegrates into the Sands of Time.
Shiwan reappears as the Ocean King, a blue whale, and says that the Fairies of Power, Wisdom, and Courage must leave with him to their world. Shiwan asks Lineback to make a wish, and Lineback replies that he hopes to find treasure. Link and Lineback say their goodbyes to Ciela, with Lineback pretending to not care about her. Then, the credits roll while a collage of Link's new adventures (in the graphical style of the introduction) is shown. Later, Link and Tetra find themselves aboard the repaired phantom ship. Soon after, Nico sails by and Link and Tetra reboard their own ship. Nico asks what Link and Tetra had been doing for the past ten minutes, and asks Tetra if she just had a bad dream, which Tetra denies. While the pirates argue, Link gasps, noticing that the phantom ship has seemingly disappeared and is nowhere to be seen. Link reaches into his tunic and fishes out an empty Phantom Hourglass. Link then runs over to the opposite deck of the ship, where he sees Lineback's steamboat sailing off into the distance. Link smiles in relief and there, the game ends.
