Link returns in an all new adventure, with a brand new cel-shaded graphical style.

Set on a small island in the middle of a great ocean, Link is living peacefully with his Grandmother when some pirates pull up next to his island. Soon after a giant bird flies in out of nowhere, and grabs the young pirate captain, Tetra. As the hero that he is, Link heads off and rescues her, only for the bird to kidnap his sister.

Now Link must head out on an even bigger adventure to save his sister. Along the way, he will discover the mystery behind the great bird and the secrets of the ocean around him as well as receive the Wind Waker, a baton that allows Link to change the tide of the ocean, so he can sail to new destinations he wasn't able to before.

Along with the new adventure, Link will also come across new items, including the grappling hook, the deku leaf, and the Tingle Tuner, allowing you to connect your Game Boy Advance to the GameCube and use Tingle the fairy on the GBA to find hidden items.

Trivia

You can not drown the pigs of Outset Island by throwing them in the ocean (the first thing I tried when I got the game), but with luck you can trap them behind one of the rocks you're supposed to practice jumping on. The pig(s) will swim back and forth along one side of the rock for an indefinite amount of time, making them much more suited for an archipelagian adventure than the wimpy kid you have to control.
