...and they're looking hot! The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass is slated for a June 23 release in Japan and a holiday release elsewhere. While it seems like an eternity to wait, these new images make it feel worthwhile. Several new locations are shown off, as well as 3D conversations, chicken torture, and more touch screen fun. The game looks infinitely more polished than last year at this time, making Nintendo's painful year-long delay quite justified.
