[edit] Powertrade, I agree with you that Zelda:TP did not sell as well as some thought it would, though, over the long run it may end up selling a lot.
Also, Children of Mana comes from a series that isn't known for its consistency in generating quality titles, were as most of the handheld Zelda games has been great, if not classic (that includes the great Oracle of Ages/Seasons). With that pedigree I wouldn't start comparing the quality of Zelda:PH to Children of Mana in any regard (though I have a feeling this wasn't your intent).
I agree with you that this game is undervalued as of now and I remain optimistic that this game will have time to gain momentum. With Japan's obsession with the DS, even if this is an okay game, if it is polished enough-coming from Nintendo this is almost assured-it will sell.
