For being out a year in advance it should be more ahead than it is.

Hyrule Warriors looks awesome. But shouldn't it be Hyrulean Warriors? Seems more appropriate to me.

In the trailer at the end it says the title isnt final.

If they settle on Hyrulean Warriors they owe me a copy.

If they name it The Legend of Zelda: Warriors of Hyrule, they owe me both a copy and a WiiU to play it on.

They could name it Hylian Warriors as well. But maybe that would limit the scope of the character selection.

Neat, but I'll still pass.

If Nintendo wants me to buy a Wii U, they can:

a) Make a DS/3DS player (with option to switch screens between controller and TV on the fly)

b) Make a Smash Bros with a Belmont as a guest character.

c) Strike a Deal with Sega to re-release/re-make Saturn games (Shining Force Trilogy would be a good start)

Otherwise, I'm done.
...just another lost soul...

It is going to need to do alot to not be just another Dynasty Warriors. Multiplayer would be nice, but the DW games get so monotonous after a while.

I thought about the potential for DS and 3DS ports when I first saw the WiiU's controller. If Nintendo announced a DS or 3DS player for the system, I would buy the system immediately.

As cool as it would be, yall are dreaming. It would be far more likely to allow crossplay of downloaded 3ds games via the Virtual Console.

Yea. I'm not really sure why people are so hyped. Cross overs are great and all, but DW games get old fast, IMO. They continue to sell so I guess a good amount of gamers are still into the formula.

Sounds interesting but it looks like it really could have used some more polish before putting out teaser.

The AI seemed very dumbed down with most of the smaller minions were just tracking links movements while standing still. Plus when the enemies did attack they telegraphed it so openly you could easily dodge just by walking away. There was only one moment in the teaser where the dodge roll was even necessary and that was only because the player kept side strafing back and forth in front of the enemy until the last second. Finally there wasn't much visually appealing the enemies were pretty bland, and the environment was pretty open/empty.

I will give it this though Link looks great. His movements, character model, and special moves look awesome. It's just everything else that needs work :P.

Will be interesting to see how things go when its released. Hopefully it does well because it's a pretty cool concept.
