That's because your noggin is abnormally HuUuuuuuGGggGGgge. I've seen pictures!
That's right! You can't challenge my absurdly big brain!

What happened to your nose...
<]=)
My large brain requires an especially large oxygen supply!
(Or perhaps my nose took the brunt of a Bloat Tool).
I have a Brain Age of, like, -20!
Ahhh! My nose isn't nearly as big, but it's large and pointy! I usually don't get enough oxygen, so I substitute it with coffee.
Maybe you clicked on the balloon tool instead of the bloat tool.
I suck at Brain Age and never got around to buying it because of that reason.

I see other big things in that picture that are MUCH more interesting.
Gasp! Don't look at me that way, I'm self-conscious! I can't help my good looks and large cranium.
What do you mean he meant Olivia?
My wonderful wife surprised me with ZH today when I got home!
She's awesome.
I can't wait to play it! Unfortunately I don't know when I'll have a chance to really finally spend a couple of hours on it. Probably not until the weekend.
Oh well, here's to the weekend!

Lucky. I've been trying to convince my wife to buy it for me. I guess

Me too, I'm finally getting that soon. I'm pretty excited.
Phantom Hourglass was fun. It was pretty easy compared to other Zelda games. A lot of the puzzles were really simple. It was pretty short too, it seemed.
Well, I finally had an opportunity to start ZH yesterday. It definitely took a little bit of getting used to. My only complaint is that I like to play my DS as I'm lying in bed at night, and having to use the stylus while holding the DS with my left hand propped up on my chest gets a little cumbersome at times.
Other than that small issue, and the small controls learning curve, I think they did an excellent job with the controls.
Writing on the maps is awesome. I keep drawing sharks and whales in the ocean.
Also the way you draw your ship route is pretty fun too.
I'm not very far in to the game at all, but it's definitely been fun so far. And with that said, I'm going to go get in bed and play for another 30 minutes or so.

I've had this game since Monday, and despite the fact that it is quite easy, In my opinion it is the best DS game yet!
The only things i don't like are the repeated visits to the Ocean King's Temple and the dredging for treasure, avoiding those annoying aquamarines. Other than that I love it! The controls are great, which is a shock to me as I was prepared to be annoyed by the touch screen.
If any of you are not sure whether to buy it or not, go get it right now!

I started playing and got up to the first temple (fire I think it is), so far I'm loving it, the controls are for the most part well but its kind of annoying when Link attacks instead of moving and doing rolls is practically impossible.
The doodling on map is a pretty nice thing and of course I see lots of potential for the touch screen further down the game.
Graphics are great, music is traditional zelda and its overall a great game, definitely a must-buy.

Wow I just played a bit more and I'm loving this game, sadly it is a bit on the easy side but it is still quite fun to play, navigating can feel like a chore at times but at least you have plenty of things to do while sailing so its not TOO boring and of course you have the frog warp system.
The only thing I'm not digging is having to do the same portions of the Ocean King Temple over again each time I do a temple.
I'm having so much fun with this and Pokemon Diamond that I really don't care about anything else but my DS right now.

I have all the heart containers now and just need 6 more courage gems and 4 more wisdom gems to reach level 2.
I also finally got the freaking ship cabin I've been looking for. Why do I always get the stupid demon and tropical parts!!!

Okay, so I just got to the part where you have to "press" the maps together.
Absolutely brilliant!
Though I will admit that I did have to look up a walkthrough on it because I was at a complete loss, and I would have NEVER thought to do that! I mean, I realized it was an upside down image of the sea chart, but I would have never imagined doing that!
I love how interactive this game is. Of course the stylus, but also blowing out candles, yelling in to the mic for various things and "pressing" the maps together.
Great game!

They borrowed the close lid thing from Trace Memory. If I hadn't encountered it there, I probably would have bee stumped.
I found another wisdom gem. I'm not going to fight the end boss until I find the rest of the gems.

Incredible.
My wife got the "press" thing without a problem.
I was waiting for her to get there so I could smile smugly as she tried in vain to figure it out. Well that sure didn't happen!
Every now and then my wife makes me feel like a complete fool.
And by "every now and then" I mean every day.

Just beat the game (well, ok, a couple days ago). That was such a fun game! The boss fight, especially the last couple with the head boss and the machine, were tons of fun. I highly recommend this to anyone that hasn't bought it yet, one of my favorite DS games ever!
