A Goron character is most likely due to how the tweet was hinting at it. Which I'm fine with. If it is a Goron, I can only imagine the only choices are going to be Darunia and Darmani, I'm going with the former since the latter wasn't all that important. Darunia also has two movesets he can utilize if he is a character, being his Fists as one and Megaton Hammer as the other.

Power Gloves trailer is up!



This is a badass moveset. I was expecting this to be much slower, but holy crap. This is waaaaaaaay faster than I anticipated it being. I honestly think that it's faster than his Sword and Shield moveset. Let's get a rundown. He can dig, he has some form of electric rekka, he can pick up a giant pillar, he can pick up an enemy, and he attacks ridiculously fast. I'd call this Link's best moveset right here unless his 4th weapon can bedazzle me.

Did he just flip the ♥♥♥♥ing screen 360? And is that a butt-rock Ballad of the Sky Goddess? This game just keeps climbing the ladder of ridiculousness higher and higher, there's just no end! This week is probably OoT week, with Darunia, the last DLC costumes, and probably(finally)Ganon. Maybe even Twinrova? Either way, there's no denying that this game is going to be the quintessential LoZ spin-off. Fanservice to the max, amazing gameplay(for a Musou at least)and some of the greatest butt rock to grace the Wii U! BRING IT ON.
Edit:Darunia just confirmed, along with Ruto and Shiek! So that's Agitha, Fi, Lana, Zelda, Shiek, Impa, Ruto, and Midna as the confirmed females. And considering how the cast is 50% female, that means we're missing at least 6 more playable males, unless yet another female gets annouced. I'm assuming its Groose, Ghirahim, Zant, Ganon, Vaati and maybe the Skeleton Dude from TP?

So when exactly are we going to get reps from Majora's Mask now that we got OoT reps, TP reps, and SS reps? A friend of mine suggested Skull Kid and the Happy Mask Salesman, and I'm trying to think of what other chracters from that game, besides the Masked Links, should go alongside with them.

That would be a little weird to see the Happy Mask Salesman as a playable, fightable character. Although it would be hilarious to see him run around with the Bunny Hood, Blast Mask, Captain's Hat, etc. as his move pool. The Masked Links could definitely be a playable character, even as only one character - similar to something like, Pokemon Trainer from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. If there was a quick transition from mask to mask, it could create an interesting dynamic and strategizing when it comes to fighting.

Deku Butler would be an excellent choice. Insanely out there, but I think out of all the Deku's that could be represented(if they have Zora's and Gorons then I think a Deku is gonna get in) he's the easiest fit. Unique design, an attack moveset that's gotta be one of a kind(seed shooting from the mouth combined with that spinny flower thing anyone?) and I'd even throw in some crazy plot, like him following the Skull Kid to exact his revenge!

Agitha got in despite having no fighting experience in Twilight Princess, so the idea of Happy Mask Salesman in Hyrule Warrior isn't much of a farfetched idea anymore.

Also Fi is playable, which kinda means that ANYONE has a shot. Just saying, we NEED Tingle. I'm already buying, but Tingle would be icing on the joke.

Dang... Power Gloves Link is pretty fast. In the trailer Link is literally just chilling with a massive ball and chain like it's no big deal. And he flips the screen upside down! Looks like it's going to be fun to use!

Edit:Darunia just confirmed, along with Ruto and Shiek! So that's Agitha, Fi, Lana, Zelda, Shiek, Impa, Ruto, and Midna as the confirmed females.

Or we could have a female dominated cast 8) Although I do see Groose returning. Haven't Ghirahim, Zant, and Ganon been confirmed as enemies already? Why would enemies be playable characters?

Something to the effect of NO.
Don't care, just want him to throw Rupees everywhere, and fly on his balloon. Don't judge me xD

He wouldn't throw Rupees everywhere, he'd charge you exhorbiant Rupee fees to translate treasure charts.

And fly around on his balloon.

And still look like a child molester.
And with that, he'll become overpowered. Kills enemies with overbearing fees and rocks.

So not only will he be a 35 year-old manchild, balloon-riding, Jew pedophile, he'll be an overpowered one on top of it.
Exactly. XD Don't worry, it's only my weird wishes.

I doubt he'll be in, to be honest. It was only meant as a joke. :p

No one even posted the trailers for Ruto, Darunia, or even Shiek while I was away? :(

Ruto:


Darunia:


Sheik:


Really don't have much to say about any of them. They all look great and positively fun to play as. Sheik is probably one of my more anticipated character to play as though. I'm loving the fact that she's incorporating the Harp into her moveset. I like how she's playing the Ocarina melodies for her Harp attacks, it's a shame that they're rather slow to initiate. Her moveset seems to be a mix of Kunoichi, Cai Wenji, and Zhen Ji.

Oh, I also played some Hyrule Warriors over at the Nintendo Gaming Lounge. Was pretty fun. I managed to play Link with the Sword and Shield, Zelda, and Midna. I wanted to try out Magic Rod as well, but the wait time was ridiculous >_> I'll put some brief impressions for all of the characters below.

Link: Standard fare. Most people shouldn't have a problem using him. His animations are short and his range is decent. I found that his crowd control was rather lacking though. Do note that this is for Sword and Shield.

Zelda: Probably the worst of the three that I've played. A lot of her attacks have some long-winded animations. In particular, her C3. It's a zig-zag attack that ends with hopping into the air followed by a repeated rapier pierces downwards, you have the option to let Zelda float to the ground after the rapier stabbings or rekka into an impact that instantly brings her to the ground. The problem I have is that during her repeated rapier stabs, she's completely vulnerable because of how long the animation takes.

Midna: Probably my favourite of all of the characters I've played. Her moveset is very mobile, lots of range, and hits hard. Not much to say other than that.

You get all my likes, my good sir. Thoughts on each trailer broken down:

Ruto - At first I was a little skeptical considering I never expected her to be in it (was she bouncing at the beginning of the trailer? lol) but she looks like an all-around good fighter! Not to many weaknesses in her fighting style, considering it's almost Neji-like where her attacks can go 360 degrees at once.

Darunia - Okay, I've found my fighter for Hyrule Warriors. I was utterly blown away by 1.) how fast he was moving considering he's such a large, heavy character and 2.) his range on his attacks is ridiculous. Plus, it looks like he got the equivalent of the Skull Hammer - one of my favorite weapons - which I hypothesized earlier that Link was going to get. Nonetheless, I'm happy someone got it, and Darunia all and all looks like a pretty damn badass character.

Sheik - Not going to lie, I was disappointed with the Sheik trailer. As she's my favorite Super Smash Bros character to use, I was hoping for...a little more from her, I guess. I like the speed they gave her, but I don't like the range of her dagger attacks as you're basically up against everyone which can be really bad when you're getting swarmed. I'm also just not a big fan that her main attacks seems to be with the harp, which personally to me doesn't really qualify as a "weapon" of sorts. Still, it's good that Nintendo is giving some diversity when it comes to each person's arsenal of weapons, but all and all my opinion of her was meh.

Hyrule Warriors is basically confirmed to have online play:



Purchase of additional content
Automatic posting of play status to Miiverse
Play special battle in adventure mode
http://www.nintendo.co.jp/wiiu/software/bwpj/index.html

Or, idk, it depends on how you take a look at the 'special battle' bit in adventure mode.

You can see Link's arms underneath her in the beginning. It's a reference to how in the past she did nothing for herself and made Link do everything, but now she can hold her own in battle. :]

I was surprised Darunia was holding the hammer because when I first heard about him I thought he would just be smashing things with his fists. Not disappointed though! He looks really great. In the beginning, Sheik also looked pretty fun but the Harp animations take pretty long, not sure how those are going to work out.

I'm really excited for this and multiplayer. My brother hasn't played Zelda before so it'll be a fun way to introduce him to all the cooler characters other than Zelda, Ganondorf, Sheik, Link from Smash Bros (he doesn't want to start with a larger game >.>)

So when this comes out we're gonna have some kind of Hyrule Warriors event Dragon, right? Riiiiiight?
Yesyesyes. Please. :3

Typically online for Warriors game only allow two players per session, so no big four player frenzy. Anyways, Impa has a new weapon to show off.



A naginata, hmm. Looks like Koei is giving Impa all of the Japanese flair it seems, haha. From what I've seen, I like it! It's not too slow and it has decent range. I'll be honest, stick this weapon into Samurai Warriors and it'll in just fine.

But wait! I'm not finished! Let's take a look at Lana's new weapon, Deku Staff. (this is like a week old though lol.)



Gameplay starts at around 2:05. I don't like this as much as her Magic Book, but it's decent moveset. Very reminiscent of of Zhou Yu. She covers a decent amount of range in the front of her, which is good. It doesn't seem like her Charge moves are going to be covering her backside, so that will most definitely be troublesome on the higher difficulties.
