Zelda Returns
Category: Life
I've mentioned many times how the Zelda video games series meant alot to Darrel
over the past two years. The Wind Waker game was how Rebecca and Darrel spent
most of their down time during their lengthy hospital stays. A few weeks ago,
Nintendo released the direct sequel to that game (The Phantom Hourglass) for
their DS system. Although he also enjoyed the Twilght Princess game that came out
earlier this year, he probably would have liked this one even more. It picks up right
where Wind Waker concluded, and is very similar in graphics and sound. Of course,
being for the DS, there are several new playing options available, which adds so
much more to the game.
Kira picked it up last Tuesday, and has been playing it non stop ever since. Hearing
the familiar sounds from the game brings back many memories, but unfortunately
Darrel's noises and comments while playing it are unavoidably missing. I'm glad
that the joy that The Legend of Zelda has brought to the house is still living
on. Even Rebecca, who only began playing video games because of Darrel, has
shown some interest in continuing the quest to rescue Zelda once more. Darrel
being here to share in it would have made it more special, but that was not to
be.
