My feelings on The legend of Zelda: Spirit TracksUpdate: The E3 Hands On
Update: Hands On. From what I understood from an Nintendo of America employee, Spirit Tracks is actually not a continuation of the Wind Waker series in terms of a sequel to Phantom Hourglass. Yet the game happens one hundred years after the events of Phantom Hourglass. The one thing I was complaining about before was of course the train game play. I said it is very limiting to exploration, and I w...
