windwaker style smoke?

just wondering if anyone would have any advice on how to achieve a similar look. I cannot tell if in game its just a an alpha mapped poly with an animated texture, actual particles or what(been too long since I've played it). any info is appreciated.

Particles, not animated, rotating and scaling like mad.
