Man, I thought she was using the Wind Waker at first.  Which raises all sorts of interesting ideas about how the Wind Waker could've been used to fight, not just control the weather.

Edit: I feel silly; it is the Wind Waker.  That's pretty awesome.

Commander Shepard: *stares blankly at a video of scantily clad asari dancers* ...What kind of hotel is this?
Liara T'Soni: It is a luxury resort with an... exotic edge.  Azure is slang for a part of the asari body in some places on Illium.
Shepard: Where?
Liara: The lower reaches, near the bottom.
Shepard: I meant, "where on the asari body?"
Liara: So did I.

Link wailing on The Imprisoned using the Ball & Chain is just too awesome for words.

New characters are cool, though it's interesting that Darunia is the ONLY male other than Link thus far.  I've seen some people suggest Mikau, but since Ruto's already handling Zora rep, I don't know if that'll happen.  One way or the other I want to see some fin boomerangs, though.

Wii U -- Hyrule Warriors Features Trailer

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiice!  8)
I saw that on the eShop yesterday.  Glorious.  And yes, the Cucco portal mishap was frikkin' awesome.  XD  I can't wait to see what the in-game context of that is.

I also liked seeing that Darunia was putting the Megaton Hammer to good use.  Hopefully we'll see Volvagia in the game at some point.

I didn't see anything about it, but you know those DLC costumes that have been popping up in the Japanese trailers for the game?

Well it looks like they decided to take a page out of "EA, Activision, and Ubisoft's guide to [tornado fang]ing over a consumer who wants everything DLC Guidebook" and make the sets retailer exclusives (for the time being I imagine, they'll probably show up for sale eventually but its still a kick in the nuts.)

Ocarina's set is for Gamestop.
Skyward Sword's been sent to Best Buy (Which ironically they're the only retailer I know that still has SS in stock.)
Twilight Princess' are stuck at Amazon.

Obviously Ganon doesn't apply here, his are Club Nintendo.

Seriously, this is not a good move. [tornado fang]ing lord.

Most likely a consequence from it being a third party license. Toei probably was the one who made that call. Though it's unclear if Nintendo has any contractual control over it. So either Nintendo cannot object to it, or Nintendo could have but instead chose not to object.

I'd hate to think the latter. It could be Nintendo's way of testing the waters for this kind of business practice concerning their IP.

Well, if I can be a little more optimistic, "chose not to" doesn't necessarily mean they approved.  It could just mean they decided an aesthetic issue wasn't worth invoking their veto.  Nintendo doesn't exactly have a reputation for being easy to work with, it's possible they were self-conscious of that.  Hell, it's possible KT wanted to do something gameplay-relevant and Nintendo vetoed that; there's really no way for us to know for sure.

But I agree, it bites.  My main consolation is that Ganondorf's OoT costume was the only one I was really interested in, so Club Nintendo saves the day.  But the practice of making it impossible to actually obtain the "complete" game is not something I am fond of.

SO!!!

Nintendo World has demos of Hyrule Warriors available to the public. I was there today to try it out, and the game does not disappoint. It is a lot of fun. Pure, simple fun. I got to try Link, Zelda, and Midna and all three are awesome. Especially Zelda!

Cannot wait till this game comes out!
