Whether it's shields or mini-sites, we can't seem to stop torturing ourselves with Phantom Hourglass news. We're actually physically pained by the fact that Japan will be receiving the game as early as next week; meanwhile, we're still waiting for a US release date to be announced, wallowing in self-pity with nothing but Destination Software's Chicken Shoot to look forward to. We want to chase chickens into corners, carry them over our heads, or even slash at them with a sword until a flood of poultry pour into our screens to defend their friend -- not shoot at them! We cry fowl at Chicken Shoot!Nintendo's latest commercial for The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass depicts a young girl finding clues, taking notes, and counting Link's steps to unlock one of the game's many secrets. As you'll see past the post break, no chickens were harmed in the making of the video.

I know this has been asked but does anyone know if you have to use the stylus to move Link? I'm really going to be disappointed if that's the case.

@3 I have yet to find any confirmation as to we'll HAVE to use the stylus to move Link.
Hopefully when it releases in Japan, we'll find out if there will be a controls option to use d-pad, buttons.
From the looks of the commercials, they seem to be banking on complete control w/the stylus.

@1 & 2 - Pity the girl doesn't come with the game though. ;)
Why are people so against stylus control? I'm looking forward to it! d-pad control is a pain in this kind of 3D environment...
That said, I do hope the option is there.
