It looks like Nintendo’s official website for Spirit Tracks in Japan is live. Although it’s fairly empty, it does offer a better view of the artwork on European box that we saw earlier, and with the already rampant speculation fluttering around about the tower in the background, I expect this website to make that explode. More visible now are the ominous tower (complete with treacherous terrain below), a mountain made of ice, and a volcano with a winding pathway.
In addition, a graphic at the bottom of the page indicates that Nintendo might be giving away feather styluses once again, so if you didn’t manage to get one the first time around – when Phantom Hourglass came out – you’ll probably be able to get one yet.

Wow that volcano looks pretty cool. That tower might be like the temple of the ocean king or whatever it is called. I might get this game even though i'm not liking the train that much.

This gives you better detail on the back round with the tower and the mountain of ice along with the volcano this game is looking better and better each day

correction on the article, near the end.
"so if you didn’t manage to get one the first time around – when Spirit Tracks came out – you’ll probably be able to get one yet."
It should say Phantom Hourglass, not Spirit Tracks

I went to the website, and it Zelda suppose to be … glowing?
November 4th, 2009 at 11:43 pm
Indeed, it seems confirmed that Zelda has a glowy look. Think she's with us in.. spirit. …or… anyway.
Yaaaaaaaay just jumping up and down because she'll have to be important in this game, and I like her a lot.
Also.. the top triangle is missing. …it's missing, not there.
…In the background though it sometimes seem to darkened, the other times, it's the middle triangle I always thought to represent the whole the three pieces create or even the dark side of thing (insert boring analysis here)
this one triangle missing or shown by itself makes me wonder.
And makes me happy because it gives me the impression there'll be a plot more complex than PH.
…hey, I can always dream.
If not, Zelda's still somewhere else than in the background.
I should toast to this simple detail.

I don't think that Zelda is glowing. Her outline does like blurred where it overlaps the border of the image, but so does the smoke coming out of the train…

Thanks – fixed!

She still is pretty pale and ghost-like in comparison to Link, and other art of her.
November 5th, 2009 at 3:04 am
wait…. Zelda's skin is glowing…. as in…… it s-sp-SPARKLES? ZELDA HAS SPARKLY SKIN!? NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! THAT YELLOW-EYED, EMO, SELF-LOATHING SON OF A BITCH!!! HE GOT ZELDA! HE GOT ZELDA!!! technically he should be after Midna, seeing as what she's the princess of, but NOOOOOO WE MUST SAVE ZELDA! RALLY THE TROOPS! BREAK OUT THE FLAMING CHAINSAWS! GET HIIIIIIMMMMMM!!
heh, heh, that was a stupid joke.

But in all seriousness, if that tower is like the Temple of the Ocean King, I'm gonna be pissed. I hated that place. Its what has prevented me from replaying that game.

So it's confirmed that Link needs coal for his train, you better not run out of coal in the middle of Hyrule Field! This game is looking better every day, I wonder how many rupees a stone of coal will cost. A train is a new vehicle, I hope Link will get a kite in Zelda Wii.

Is the site not working for anyone else? For me, it loads, then nothing. It shows a the background and nothing else. D:
November 5th, 2009 at 11:30 pm
Heehee, good thing for that feather stylus. I lost mine. =P
