Pasted from news comments:
\"What\'s with all the PH hate? Jacob\'s spot-on - it\'s Zelda in great handheld form. The difficulty and length were perfectly judged in the context of the hardware, as were the controls. If you want more variety and challenge then that\'s what the home console versions are for (although I wouldnt say any of them are gruellingly difficult). PH was tailored for the DS and the short-bursts of playtime that usually accompany it.
This will probably be just as good, although the veil of the train to compensate for large navigable spaces doesn\'t work as well as the boat did (mainly because you can see all the low-poly land you\'re not exploring).
This will no doubt be workmanlikely brilliant. Crap name though.\"
Why are people moaning already? Of course it\'s a \'PH clone\'. Everyone knew it was going to be after PH\'s producer said they planned on reusing the engine. It\'s an invalid argument unless you sighed and moaned when Oracles or Minish Cap turned out to be Link\'s Awakening clones.

i wonder what the point of that train is, as opposed to say... a horse.
Train is completely controllable in 3D. With a horse they\'d have to give you control, and open 3D areas would look pretty ropey on DS.
