That does look very good!
But why oh why didn't they develop the new zelda game for the revolution instead of the gamecube?!

I've just lost count on how many good reasons there are to buy the DS...

Yeh another great game heading to the DS. I bought a DS about a week after the release date and was relatively let down by the lack of decent games released for quite a few months after. Now tho there is plenty of decent games for anyone getting one for the first time and with the release of mario bros ds and zelda it will simply cement its position as the best handheld out there!

couldnt agree more, seems fairly stupid really as im sure they will be released around the same time. and zelda as a launch title would have definatley boosted sales.
im sure nintendo have something up there sleeves though

Yeah one thing i've learned over the years is just to trust nintendo. They know what they're doing, and when they announce something odd, I just go with the flow now and enjoy it! They are one of the few free-thinking and experimental companies left in the business. Although they are obviously a company and therefore out to make money primarily, I have always felt differently about nintendo - they just seem to be driven by a love of gaming culture and not concerned with meeting deadlines and sales figures and I believe that in this day and age that is to be commended |

mike | But Nintendo have already announced that the Revo will support a custom controll method for this game. So even though it's a GC game it will still boost Revo sales if launched at the same time!
