Trivia / The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

• Creator's Favorite Episode: Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma considers Phantom Hourglass to be his favorite The Legend of Zelda game.
• What Could Have Been:
  • Phantom Hourglass was originally planned to be a new The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords game, but Mr. Miyamoto wanted a Wind Waker sequel.
  • One interview prior to release claimed that Ganondorf’s evil had spread beyond the sea, indicating Bellum was planned to have a connection to the Gerudo thief. In the final game, Ganondorf only has a cameo as a nameless evil king in the intro, while Bellum seems to be a standalone villain and is never noted to have any relation to him.
