I like the moments when nintendo's characteristic sanitized toy-like direction dissipates and you can see the abyss...

But for real, it's very atmospheric and somehow secretly melancholic, and one of the last nintendo releases I actually loved. Gameplay is also much more polished compared to 64 and Sunshine, but without feeling too streamlined like some of the later 3d entries. Wished Koizumi fully directed another game like this or Majora's.
