If you wanted to play the hottest games at E3, there was plenty of queuing to be done.
On the Nintendo stand, the only line was for The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, and despite there being eight DSi running the demo, there was a line until the final hours of Thursday. I hate queuing so that was when I jumped on.
The demo featured three separate elements of the game.
The first was the standard dungeon experience, which as with Phantom Hourglass had you controlling Link with your stylus - his movement and attacks following where you tapped on the screen. This time though he had a phantom buddy to help out.
These big, chunky, walking suits of armour armed with a mighty sword previously featured in Phantom Hourglass's multiplayer modes, but in Spirit Tracks you get to control your own phantom - useful both in terms of his battling skills, as well as dealing with traps and puzzles.
