Product Description
The Legend Of Zelda: The Minish Cap takes young Link into an all-new adventurewhere he'll explore Hyrule and battle evil on the microscopic level. An ancient magical sword releases the evil mage Vaati and he causes trouble all over Hyrule. Link has been sent to restore the sword and seal Vaati inside it -- but it can only be done by visiting the Minish people and getting their help. Linnk will have to shrink to do that - and the strange Minish Cap will be his guide in this new mirco-world.

4 out of 5 stars Great game, excellent condition   June 6, 2008
I honestly have only one complaint about this product.
Although the game arrived in just about perfect condition (even better than what I would expect buying used cartridge games from a physical store), and I can't even find a good reason why anyone shouldn't play this game, I have to say, its rather short!

Other than that, though, this is just an all-around good game. Its cute, its fun, the graphics are colorful, smooth, and well-animated. Even the music and sound effects (which seem to be stolen from Ocarina :P) are fantastic, and I refuse to play the game without good headphones to enjoy them with.

I have a feeling that I'll be playing this game over and over again in the years to come.



3 out of 5 stars Let down   March 8, 2008
I guess that any Zelda fan really should own this, but it is a let down from the rest of the series. This is mainly due to the inconveniently designed landscapes and corny items. It's all right, but it definitely could have been better.


5 out of 5 stars My Newphew loved it!   January 1, 2008
Gave this as a gift. My nephew loved it. Only thing is he said it didn't take him long to finish the game. He is seasoned player, so it would be more challenging for beginners.


4 out of 5 stars Zelda Minish Cap   February 10, 2007

This is a very good game. It has many sub quests and an interesting storyline. There aren't many dungeons in this game, but there is more exploring and fighting monsters in this game. Since you can shrink down in size, twists in the overworld and dungeons are influenced by size as well. The dungeons get pretty complex around the end of the game, but there aren't any overly difficult areas that make you think for a long time in the overworld. Overall, it is a good game, it just needs more dungeons.


5 out of 5 stars A Highly Addictive And Fun Challenge   February 7, 2007

If you have played A Link to The Past (Four Swords), well, your in for an even better surprise. The minish cap is a very challenging game with loads of puzzles. Similar in theory to a Link to the Past, where you go from light to dark worlds, in Minish cap you go from the "light" world to the minish world a world where you are shrunk down to pea size. Actually, you have full size game play, play in "pea" size minish mode, and third play full size while a minish in the minish world.

Coming straight from a Link to the Past, the first thing you will notice is that the bosses are much harder to defeat. Second, the dungeons have some very difficult puzzles to solve -- and really make the player think.

When I bought mine, I didn't get the play book, so I got off to a slow start -- then found a walkthrough online. I didn't use it for cheating, but rather, to get an overview about what type of items are in the game, the overall quest, and fusing.

Overally, I would say I've finally made it to the last dungeon, Dark Hyrule, after a good 40 hours+ of play time on and off over the last month. Beware though, I do recommend taking breaks at least every 30 minutes, otherwise, when you stop you will have double vision (really).

I really hope a sequel will come soon as I'm near the end.

In conclusion, if you love the Zelda series, you will love this game. And for the complexity and time it takes to beat, you really do get your money's worth.
