I'm sure they will, especially since the schedule was thrown out the window. Usually the weird stuff happens when the game is rushed out, like Sonic 06 and Megaman X6.

They'll cut out whatever ideas they can't use here and use it in a future game. They seem to have a good sense for not pushing it too far (although some may argue they don't push it far enough).

Pretty much, it's what they've been doing with most of the Zelda games. Hell maybe the more weird robotic elements from the initial trailer was from the Sci Fi element ideas they wanted to do for a long time.

Apparently the Triforce Fragments were, at one point, supposed to be computer chips and Link was going to be traveling between medieval and futuristic time periods since at least a Link to the Past before they scrapped the idea. Obviously not going to be that extreme but I can see it.

For as completely ludicrous as sci-fi Zelda sounds, there's no real reason they COULDN'T do it...

Mega Man X games don't get much weirder than a ranking system based around not killing things in X5. Just saying.

Wii U ports to the 3DS? With ADDED things? Dammit, now i'm gonna have to double dip.

Yay now I can play it!

OBJECTION MAN · **Reply #2006 on:** June 10, 2015, 10:46:33 PM

The WiiU version chugs at times, so this port is probably going to be a lag fest.

At least the DLC seems like it will come to the WiiU? Or do you have to have both versions?

Amatiramisu · **Reply #2007 on:** June 10, 2015, 11:19:47 PM

Something like that would have to be N3DS exclusive.

Sakura Leic · **Reply #2008 on:** June 10, 2015, 11:21:31 PM

The Box Art shown actually shows that it's not.

Phi · **Reply #2009 on:** June 10, 2015, 11:23:42 PM

As some people pointed out, there seems to be less enemies on the screen than the Wii U version, and the draw distance isn't as good.

I don't think its DLC. I think Tetra and King of Red Lions are included, hell Tingle's shown in the very corner of the big image with all the characters so it might have the DLC pre-included.

I wouldn't be surprised if its like Smash on normal 3DS where it shuts basically everything else off to function properly.

They really should have made it N3DS exclusive though, it is a Wii U port for crying out loud.

OBJECTION MAN · **Reply #2011 on:** June 10, 2015, 11:44:13 PM

Even if it is a N3DS game, my expectations as stated above do not change.

Sakura Leic · **Reply #2012 on:** June 10, 2015, 11:51:49 PM

Guess I'll wait for the reviews before I decide to get it.

Hypershell · **Reply #2013 on:** June 11, 2015, 12:45:42 AM

I wouldn't trust reviews as far as they can be thrown for a game of this style, the original met with a lot of skepticism from critics but seemed better received by the general public (I for one thought it was amazing).

Marketing-wise this is a great idea, install bases and all, but in terms of the game's execution it's hard to imagine the 3DS version not suffering.

I'm not a big Wind Waker fan, either, so as much as I FREAKING ADORE this game on WiiU, it'll take more than Tetra and the King to convince me to double dip.

Phi · **Reply #2014 on:** June 11, 2015, 12:51:54 AM

I very much doubt that Tetra and the King are the only new additions. That would be beyond idiotic.

I suspect we'll be seeing new modes, 3DS-exclusive stages, the obligatory Street and SpotPass functionality and more.

Nintendo is usually pretty consistent with changing things up, based on the system's accessibility.

Perhaps, but with the WiiU Adventure Maps taking an eternity to clear, it'll be a long time before "not enough modes" is a valid thought in my head.

OBJECTION MAN · **Reply #2017 on:** June 12, 2015, 03:35:46 AM

I hate to say it but it may be their attempt at cutting their losses on the WiiU. It's not recovering to the point they need it to, and they could be taking the popular games (Smash, Hyrule Warriors, maybe soon others) and making sure the 3DS has them to keep up the 3DS money train. It's certainly cheaper than making a brand new game from the ground up.

Sakura Leic · **Reply #2018 on:** October 14, 2015, 11:47:07 PM

So I got 3 Download codes for the Tri Force Heroes demo however since Online Co-op can only be used at certain times I'm probably going to give 1 to my brother. Others are most likely to get them too.

Also NoA twitter wants people to vote which question(s) they want Eiji Aonuma and Hiromasa Shikata to answer. Obviously 5 is the most important one in my opinion.

"Why can't you play as Zelda?"

but you can, its just that she's named link in this game and might be a crossdresser.

seriously though that's the best part of the game right there.

why would you stop crossdressing

Sakura Leic · **Reply #2022 on:** October 15, 2015, 02:07:08 AM

I support a crossdressing Link and find it awesome, however I would have also liked an option to play as Zelda anyway.

Phi · **Reply #2023 on:** October 15, 2015, 02:30:23 AM

Crossdressing Link is best Link

Hypershell · **Reply #2024 on:** October 15, 2015, 03:01:43 AM

For once I was actually in on the demo code emails, though I'm disappointed they're not including single-player in the demo. Local co-op doesn't really work for me, though I suppose I could swipe a second code for my original 3DS if I just register a new NNID...
