Rides the Rails in The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks

Nintendo has just dropped word of their latest upcoming title: The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks. It will feature everyone's favorite wide-eyed hero of time exclusively for the Nintendo DS. Showcased in some very brief footage shown at the Nintendo GDC 2009 keynote, The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks has cel-shaded Link abandoning talking boats and the beloveded Epona for a train, that's right a train.

It's set to be released later this year, but I wouldn't be surprised if this got delayed for a while.

Pixel Addictions: Best Thing You've Heard All Week

Okay, so we all know that Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time is one of the best games ever made. Doubt as may, Hip Hop is also one of the most popular forms of music today. So in the rare instances when these two worlds collide, its pretty much gives us a visual and audio orgy blowing the mind. Okay, so that was an exaggeration. But, in quite possibly the best thing heard all week, Team Teamwork has created a mash up of tracks from the Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time and blended them with lyrics from hip hop giants such as Dr. Dre, Jay-Z, Common, Mike Jones, and Snoop, to name a few, and the end result is exactly what you think. AMAZING!

I wish more people would offer fans media like this. Listening to these tracks brings back so many memories of playing Ocarina of Time and bouncing along to these songs on the radio. Download the full album below and enjoy the audio bliss.
