Click on to find which Nintendo titles stole the top three spots in the Top 30 and how Famitsu reviewed Eternal Darkness.According to the latest Famitsu, "takuto" in the title "Kaze no Takuto" refers to the baton that an orchestra conductor uses. As a result, like its predecessor Ocarina of Time, music will probably play a role in this game. It is also very likely that the Baton of Wind is an item in the game just like how the Ocarina of Time and Mask of Majora were in their respective games.
Nintendo grabs the first three spots in this weeks Top 30 in Famitsu. Star Fox Adventures (GC) leads the pack, with Super Mario Advance (GBA) in second and Densetsu no Starfy (GBA) in third.
