About the game (IGN.com)
Nintendo's thematic action-adventure sequel to Ocarina of Time takes the series back to its more cartoonish roots. Utilizing a completely new look with cel-shaded graphics, the game casts players in the role of a familiar young boy, who sets out to save his kidnapped sister. Gameplay is vintage Zelda, only that the game's overworld is covered by water. Players have to control the direction of the wind to sail across the ocean and find dungeons, towns, and plenty of secrets. A special Game Boy Advance link-up option lets another player join the quest and give hints and assistance via the handheld.

Emulation Status & Speed
    Issues:
  • Heat effects not working correctly, please refer to the Wiki for latest info on resolving this issue.

    Emulation Speed
  • The game requires a very good CPU.

Additional Information
The game is fully supported and playable. You might want to turn on the "Bleach Versus Crusade Hack" to remove the blurriness in higher resolutions.
Forum members Benito and Uhyve made a nice High Resolution Texture Pack which replaces UI elements and some other stuff, you might want to check it out here.

Seems quite playable. Although I'll prefer to wait for sound emulation before playing it in depth. I have the Pal version by the way.
I played it a month ago, and it was perfectly fine back then, I didn't enounter any crashes or gfx glitches (no sound of course).

How far did you go? If someone can confirm that finished it then I'll be more than happy to know that the sound is the only problem in dolphin with this game.

Even though it gives you a 5fps speed boost, keep EFB Copy enabled, or you'll get some pretty annoying depth issues at some parts.
Post updated, please post Information about sound.

I'm currently playing the game now , I'll post updates to as far I have got without any issues.
Apart from the game running slow and the lack of sound, the only issue I have found so far in the game is that the smoke put off from lanterns that you swing on causes a graphical glitch where there appears to be 2 copies of Link.

hey people
I have the us version and I'm experiencing a huge slowdown when I fall down to pawpalm isle
I'm using build 2745 (x64) on windows 7
my specs : core i7 , 6gb ram , geforce gtx 260
I have all the latest drivers and directx rumtime and what not
In the emulator I'm using opengl , diabled the sound , enabled dual core
so my question :
Why is it - Do i need to use different setting , does it happen to anyone else ?
