Tuesday’s Video Twofer
The flow of news will start to become slim as we get closer and closer to E3. A lot of the big names are holding out until the Expo, which is now just a few weeks away. We’ll save speculation until another day as we get even closer.
For right now, I’ve got two videos that may grab your interest. The first is probably the best video I’ve yet seen when it comes to demonstrating some of the nitty gritty mechanics of Phantom Hourglass.
As you can see, this clip is from gamevideos.com, which may run a little slower than what you are used to from YouTube. But you’ll quickly find the video worth it as it gives what I think is the best idea yet of the mechanics. A lot of pundits have said that this game is sort of a melting pot of Link to the Past and Wind Waker. But after taking a look through that clip, it honestly reminds me more of the mostly overlooked Minish Cap on GBA from just a few years back. Which was outsourced to Capcom instead of seeing development in house at Nintendo, but still was a kickass game that threw the franshise for a loop in a totally good way.
The second video I thought might tickle your fancy is a follow up from yesterday’s post. This is the advertisement to be run on UK screens in the not too distant future, featuring Nicole Kidman trying to best the Good Doctor on her DS.
Allright. That’s not hardly as Earth shattering or revealing as the Zelda clip, but I thought you’d still get a good jolly out of it. Was I the only one expecting her to slam the DS on the floor and start shouting?
“SCISSORS, DAMNIT! SCISSORS!!”
