Near to two years after the release of The Wind Waker, Nintendo released the next handheld adventure for the Zelda Series, this time around making use of the cel-shaded Link from the previous title as well as having similar death animations for enemies in the form of "poofing" smoke. Using an improved version of the interface found in the Gameboy and Gameboy Color titles, The Minish Cap has many unique items that have more intense animations than previous games.
