For the final announcement at Nintendo CEO and President Satoru Iwata's keynote at GDC, he revealed the latest Legend of Zelda game. Titled The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, this new title will be available for the DS in 2009.

Very few details of the game were given, but the video reveals that the graphical style and gameplay will be similar to The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. New features include the ability for Link to control other creatures and a train for navigating the world.
