Link, his friend Tetra and her gang of pirates are sailing unexplored seas when they come across a ghost ship.
When Tetra wants to explore the ship she disappears and Link, who goes after her, falls into the sea and becomes stranded on an unknown island.
While remaining true to the traditional Legend of Zelda formula, this game's controls are drastically different from other Zelda titles.
This time you only use the touch screen to make Link move and attack instead of buttons.
For example, swinging your sword is done with a short line horizontally or vertically in front of Link, or by tapping on a specific enemy.
Link can somersault forward by having the player draw a small circle on the edge of the screen while running.
The boomerang can be thrown in a specific path by drawing its exact route on the touch screen.
You can also use the touch screen to make notes of secret treasures and items on the map simply by writing them down.
Sailing across the sea is also done by simply drawing the route on the map.
While the route is being traveled, the player can pan the screen around to look out for enemies and other obstacles.
The ship's route can also be changed while traveling if something else catches the player's attention.
Later on, the player can even go fishing in the sea, using the stylus to pull the rod and reel in their catch.
The game is presented in the same cel-shaded style as the Wind Waker but it is displayed from a classic top-down perspective.
About Nintendo Wii U
The Wii U (2012) was commercially Nintendo's least successful home console, hampered by market confusion over whether the GamePad tablet controller was a new device or a Wii accessory. Its low sales mean smaller overall print runs across the board, and several first-party and indie darlings have already become noticeably pricier than their commercial performance would suggest, since there are simply fewer copies in circulation.
Gamevaro tracks The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass for Nintendo Wii U with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This WIU release dates back to 2007.

Condition matters a lot for collector value: loose (cartridge/disc only), complete-in-box (CIB, with original packaging and manual) and factory-sealed copies are tracked separately because the price gap between them can be significant, especially for older releases.
