Talk:The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks

This Page needs a game template
I've noticed that this page doesn't have a game template around its title. I was wondering if we should add this to the page. After all, It will help to clarify dates and what not. Not to mention that even if the game cover gets released soon we can always change it. Smashbrother101.2 16:27, 7 June 2009 (UTC)


 * It is because the game has not been fully released yet, so most of the information is unknown. However, once we know the information, we will surely add it to the page.  17:43, 7 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Well the release date is really the only "unknown" information, and since the template is built to handle unreleased games and is already being used on Zelda Wii, I've added it. 21:37, 11 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Thank you Adam. Now could ask you one thing? Could you delete this account please? Smashbrother101.2 13:21, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Why is it that I can't edit this page? I was going to add this...

4-Player Battle Mode

During the 2009 E3 interview with Shigeru Miyamoto, he was asked if there would be a 4-player battle mode, an idea that was scrapped from The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. He than comfirmed that there would be a 4-player battle mode in the game. Although he did not want to reveal too much information, he did state that when playing battle mode, the 2-4 players would play a game similar to tag, and that there would be no swords.


 * It was protected from newly registered members editing it because of too many people putting their personal theories about what the game would be like on the page. The excitement seems to have died down now so I'll go ahead and unprotect it. 03:51, June 16, 2009 (UTC)

Spoiler in UK Advertisement
If you look carefully at the middle you notice a corporal Zelda in a scene never seen before. The only logical explanation for where that is is the final boss fight. The skeletal figure does not appear to be anything we have seen so far. What does this mean?


 * Actually, that scene is from very early on in the game, before Zelda even gets killed. It's hardly the final boss fight.Ganondorfdude11 21:07, 18 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Is it? How do you have that proof? I can't say either way, bit the fact that it is interpreted differently by different people means that it's not exactly a spoiler. :P 21:54, November 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * It was in the 90-minute Gamesradar playthrough of the game. But it most definitely is not a spoiler. Ganondorfdude11 22:03, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

I can't find any thing about that scene being in the 90 minutes. Prove that its there. http://www.gametrailers.com/users/mikegt/gamepad/?action=viewblog&id=492827 Ganondox 17:34, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

I noticed something else odd in the new trailer, right at the start of the video where link is swinging a sword, look at the hilt. Now what does that look like hm? So much for it being stuck in Ganons forehead at the end of WindWaker, unless its a 'new' one of said sword. Man, that would screw up so many timeline theories. Noskap 10:49, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

Also, notice how in the new Uk trailer that Link goes underwater...Ganon is underwater...on zelda Universe ganon theories are springing up. 14:28, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

That would be assuming that Link, Tetra and the pirates didn;t travel very far before and after phantom hourglass. and I mean not that far at all. Though its possible, the whole Anjean/Tetra theory could suggest that she obtained it somehow? we'll have to wait and see. Noskap 15:08, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

This needs to be updated
We now have several more trailers/commercials, 2 unmetioned bosses, and we now know what all the items are. We need to update this page and it's related pages. 14:23, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
 * I'll hope you are working on that. I'll be here catching up the patrol backlogs :p 00:01, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Wrong Release Date
I hate to bear this news guys, but I think there may have been a mistake in the release date that's been posted here for this game. I just went to Wal-Mart and Gamestop to try to get a copy of the game, both said it comes out tomorrow, not today. Someone may want to change this and the countdown clock on the main page promptly, because that date just isn't so according to every store around me. I'm going to try to check another Wal-Mart out of town to see if they give me the same response, but so far, I've had two places turn me away saying it's tomorrow, not today. Has anyone else has problems getting their hands on a copy of the game today? Link87 18:20, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
 * December 7 is the shipping date. Some stores might not get it until the 8th. Happens with every game. Ganondorfdude11 19:08, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Shipping date is not the true release date for store purchase however. The page should give the true, retail release date on which consumers can buy it in person. Link87 19:50, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
 * That would be an impossibility, as some retailers won't even receive it until the ninth, and shipping date is considered to be the true release date. This happens for literally every game, as shipping can take multiple days. 20:48, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't consider the game "released" until I can buy one at a store, and at this point, no store is selling the game anywhere today. They all say the same: the 8th. Link87 21:09, 7 December 2009 (UTC)

Shipping times and such vary. Some stores have it now, some do not because it takes longer to ship there. The official release date is the 7th, because it's shipping out to stores today. Ganondorfdude11 21:21, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
 * I've heard nobody say they have been able to buy one today at all, no reports of any. If that is so and it is available for purchase at all today in even one place in America, that's one thing. But if it's merely shipping out and is not for sale anywhere at all until tomorrow period (as has been told to me at 3 different stores), that's very misleading to say it's released today b/c nobody can buy one today. I'm in Illinois too, not Hawaii. Link87 21:23, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
