Nintendo is known for using their brilliantly designed character franchises to help sneak their hardware into people's homes. Games like Mario Kart, Metroid, and Mario 64 DS help move Nintendo DS consoles off the store shelves.

But what can we expect from the Hourglass? A 3D adventure made to look like The Wind Waker? A top-down adventure like the excellent GBA titles that have come so far, such as A Link to the Past? Let's take a look at what we know about Zelda: Phantom Hourglass in the days after its announcement.
So when will this Zelda Windwalker look alike come out?
