Whatever happened to the DS upgrades this game was supposedly going to have?
What? Sounds like BS someone made up.

Sucks living in Australia, I don't think we're ever getting this game, oh well, not like i'd pay $70 for it anyway, it looks awesome though.

Nintendo said themselves that the US version would have DS connectvity stuff
 
This version must have something different, there's no way in hell Nintendo would actually give Europe a game first if the NA version wasn't better in some way.
 
Was it Wario64 who did the rumor to Minish Cap having DS capabilities? It was either a rumor or a planned side-project that was never completed. I remember hearing about around the time of E3 so it could have been one of those 'off the cuff' remarks from the staff.

Has anyone found out what the U.S. version will have other than a more expanded and 'fixed-up' script?

Haha, I didn't make any rumors up but I swore I read something about DS and Minish Cap before...

Wow it's no longer even listed on Australian online retailer sites anymore!

It was supposed to come out months ago, i haven't seen it in store!!!

Yeah, i'd like to find out what the new content is. Guess we'll have to wait until someone gets the game...

More Kinstones! I've heard they can bring good luck and all. Ok, actually I have no idea what the new content is...
 
It's possible that Minish Cap will just be DS Aware, so it can go into sleep mode. I believe I read that the translation has been improved too over the Euro version.

It's in the JP version. Hopefully they fixed that for the US one. Also the third house bit...


Hang on is the Euro version missing the 99bomb bag? And whats wrong with the 3rd house bit (I haven't done it and was wondering how to)
 
I hear this game is great, but pretty short (like five dungeons). Why doesn't Nintendo believe in eight dungeons anymore?? (If I recall, OoT is the last Zelda game to feature eight).

Another pet peeve: quarter hearts are DUMB. If you can't get through a level without getting hit six times (not to mention random hearts you find) then you need to PRACTICE. Stupid quarter hearts...
 
I'm incredibly pumped for MC. I didn't import and I refused to play the english ROM, so I could go into the experience an MC virgin.
 
I just got a used GBA from my cousin with an old Zelda game he said was on the Super Nintendo before. I love it so if this one is similar I will have to buy it. :)
 
Played this at E3 -- it was great then and will be great now.

I'm excited to know what "new" content the US version has. A DS exclusive feature would be pretty cool. Maybe a permanent map on the opposing screen? Or a touch screen inventory? Would be hella nice for busting out that fairy when you are about to get pwned.

I think that 40 hours quote was with all of the stone subquests completed.

its about 20ish. You will want to do frivoulous stuff. The completist in you will take 40 but the average joe will take 20 which is great
 
I've heard nothing but great things about this game. Hopefully it will surpass the greatness that was Link's Awakening.

Wario, thanks for letting us know that it will be $22.99 at Target. I'll have to get it there. :)
 
Im thinking about getting this game, mainly because it seems more like Link to the Past then anything else. But Im going to israel and one of the reasons IM thinking about getting this game would be because I wanna consume time, so how long is the game?

It's Link's Awakening with Four Swords graphics. Take that as you will
 
Got a complimentary copy from nintendo today (not mine don't get to keep it :sad ) I will hit you guys with some impressions tonight.
