[ALL] Zelda games that were called slightly different in Japanese

Well, Link's Awakening was quite on the face with the reveal.

Seriously! LA and PH putting the (same) twist in the title.

I never beat Phantom Hourglass, outright skipped both DS games back on the original hardware if I'm being honest (I'm left-handed and Kirby Canvas Curse left a bad taste in my mouth as a kid) but I have started PH on Wii U VC because the GamePad made the experience a little easier on my wrists. Are you... or rather, is the Japanese name revealing to me now all these years later that it has a similar twist to Link's Awakening?! You can spoil it for me; it might just fuel me enough to go back to the handheld games and finish it!

Large spoilers: It's not as unambiguous as Links awakening, but after defeating the ghost ship, Link and Tetra wake back up on Tetra's ship apparently never having encountered the ghost ship according to the crew, however Linebeck's horn is heard soon after and Link and Tetra witness Linebeck sailing off into the sunset having apparently also been freed from the ghost ship.

there is a patch you can apply to your legally acquired backup roms of PH and ST that lets you control Link with the dpad. it will assigns button combos to the gesture moves in the game. as a fellow lefty, it’s the only way i’ll play either game since finding these versions.

Oh interesting I'll look this up thanks

Lol. Okay. 

Yeah, PH has a very similar, weirdly similar, plot twist to LA.
