This week on Retro Reloaded, we’re doing a First Impressions episode for The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass on Nintendo DS.
Instead of a full review, this episode focuses on the early experience: the touch controls, the Wind Waker-style visuals, the story setup, the Temple of the Ocean King, and whether this handheld Zelda adventure makes me want to continue the playthrough or drop anchor early.
Joining me for this episode is Dan from Controller Wipez.

First impressions of Phantom Hourglass
How the DS touch controls feel today
Whether it works as a Wind Waker sequel
The good, the bad, and the in-between
Whether I’ll continue the playthrough
Question of the week:
Is Phantom Hourglass underrated, or is it one of the weaker Zelda games?
