Hyrule Warriors (The Minish Cap Trick On Switch)

Twilight Princess is probably Midna's true form. Here is hoping for Ilia and Colin.

Kafei's chances just went up vaguely I suppose.

Also I can see Nintendo pushing this DLC method hard in Smash Bros for some reason.

Spent all afternoon getting stuck into this, then had to go to work.

My day 1 review: Is it the best Warriors game? No. Is it the best Zelda? No. Is it the best Dynasty Warriors x Zelda game we could have hoped for? Absolutely.
10/10

I not sure it it's from been deprived of gaming for a good long while due to work, but I had a blast on Hyrule Warriors this weekend. It's definitely technically ropey in places (love the way co-op works, but it does push the Wii U to the edge!), but the DW hack-and-slash gameplay has been all new to me and boredom hasn't set in yet. I really enjoy trying out the combos and "applying" your hero like a deadly cream on the areas of the battlefield that need it to force a win. The Zelda-styling definitely help, some of the battlefields are gorgeous, and the heroes are nice and distinct. Plus it has an old-school wealth of extra content and hidden stuffs (even if the DLC ad on the main screen looks a bit jarring). It's not mind-shatteringly awesome, but I still find myself really looking forward to a few more evenings of warring in Hyrule this week.
How's other people's mileage? Enjoyed the Story? Anyone got all that far in 8-bitty Adventure Mode yet?

I've just put up my little review in last game you finished as I've just done the Legend Mode which is rather good, now going to tackle adventure mode.

Bought the DLC pass with the rubbish "Dark Link" costume in a cold+lemsip-induced haze last night. Not sure if it was such a good idea (there's plenty of game left to go), but I have enjoyed it thus far. Getting a bit fed up for the Zelda RAWK music, but the gameplay has kept me interested. The core hacking-and-slashing has become entirely secondary to the act of winning the field now...
(it also gives me craving for a real Zelda adventure I can get lost in *sighs*)

Epona is one of the new weapons in the first DLC packs.

Just bought the game myself, haven't had time to give it a go. I have never played a Warriors game, so this could be hit or miss for me.

More than a bit good, this. I've never played a "musou" game before, but can see myself getting into the whole "control the battlefield while semi-mindlessly slashing up enemies" thing, especially with a jolly pretty Zelda-based lick of paint. And the RPG-like "upgrade yer stuff" in the Bazaar is pretty good too.

And I'm actually enjoying the remixes of the Zelda tunes so far! ("So far" being "the first level".) My only problems thus far are the awfully voice-acted narration, stilted dialogue, and the camera being a bit too much of a free spirit.

I downloaded this last week and whilst I've only spent 3 or so hours on it, that time flew in. Metal music is right up my street so I'm loving how the songs have been remixed. I think the only way I could describe it would be to call it bloody chaos in the most wonderful way.

The DLC I think went up today, I will download sometime over the weekend to play.

Second pack is November 27th and Twili Midna is playable also confirmed one of the new costumes for link is of a familiar Zelda character, I'm going it's tingle costume.

We know your fav princess now balla

I was referring to the Tingle outfit.

Sure you were balla

3DS Version coming with new characters which look like they will be transferable to the Wii U version.

Is it New 3DS exclusive? If not, I'm all in for that - really loved the look of Hyrule Warriors.

The box at the end of trailer is normal 3DS box I think but is a Japanese Box and I only saw quick that it might be New 3DS.

If it is on Old 3DS, how's it going to run on it.

Needs its own thread, surely?  I probably ought to actually play the Wii U one before I make it, though...

EDIT: Oh, it's just a port? Never mind.

Maybe but at the moment we don't know much part from that trailer.

My experience of Dynasty Warriors on Vita has put me off of the 3DS one enough. I imagine this too will feel super basic and just less fun.

Female Link's crossbow was spotted in the trailer, could she also be in the game. Be cool if she is, I'm buying as be cool to play as Tetra in the full fledged Wii U version.

We still don't actually know that its a female Link, right?

Well the link in the art book is female that holds the crossbow.
