Some may recognise this title as Four Swords, as stated as the title at E3 2003. In this game, you and up to 3 of your friends will go on a quest in which you will be competitive to collect the more rupees than your friends, while still having to work together to advance.
The world in which this game consists of makes this game just as fun, spanning to your Gamecube as well as your Game Boy Advance. You will explore the full world on your television screen, but whenever you enter an area where a roof is over your head, you will have to take your eyes to your Game Boy Advance screen, from where you can find what's within that area. There are numerous areas that you can access in this area, including Mt. Doom, the Lost Woods, and the Dark World.
You will also find many recognisable items in this game, including the boomerang, sling-shot, bombs, and of course, the sword. With these items, you won't only have to use them to advance, but to also steal your fellow friend's items.
For those of you that are worried about the need of friends and/or a GBA, worry no more! It has recently been confirmed that for a single player, you can use your faithful Gamecube controller, and whenever you enter a roofed area, a small window will appear on your TV screen, taking the place of your GBA, but of course, if you want to play with your friends, you will need a GBA with a link cable as well as your friends.
Note: Due to what seems to be on behalf of the western responce, Navi Trackers has been cancelled for releasal in North America and Europe.
This game seems to be the original Tetra's Trackers displayed at last year's E3, this is a title that takes Zelda in another direction. In it, Tetra, the infamous pirate from The Wind Waker, will lead you and your friends on a "scavenger hunt" in which you must race your friends to collect the various stamps from Tetra's band of pirates. Sure it sounds easy and all, but you will have to search for the pirates, and collect the stamps in a certain order.
Most of the action of this game takes place on your Game Boy Advance, while on your television screen, Tetra will provide hints on where the pirates are located.
It is not required for others to play this game, but you will need a GBA Link Cable, which is speculated that it could be possibly included in the package, and of course, a Game Boy Advance.
In this game, you will become Link, who will defend yourself against other Links by using traditional Legend of Zelda items such as bombs. Last link standing is the victor!
The world for this game seems mighty impressive consisting of special lighting effects and overlays, making it look great in motion.
Unfortunately, this game does require the use of more than 1 GBA and GBA Link cable, meaning that you'll need at least 1 friend to play.
