    I wish they had hinted at this sooner. I just replayed TP not too long ago. I probably won't be in the mood for a replay for a few years.

    I just want to know what gameplay changes there are. WWHD added stuff that would make me consider it the best version even without improved graphics, so I'm interested to see what they'll do to TP.

    And what the Wolf Link Amiibo does. Nothing vital, I hope.

    Well, it was leaked about a month or so ago but yeah...

    Luckily I last played through it about 3 years ago so I can't wait.

    That Linebeck costume is huge. Lets you see what's in the treasure chests at the end of each stage before they're opened.

    In single player, this takes all the random chance out of what item you get.

    Good point. If you're chasing a rare material and you see your team mate picking the Linebeck suit you're just gonna nope straight out of there.

    The Linkle reveal pretty much made Hyrule Warriors Legends a must buy for me now, and I'm glad that Zelda U is still going to be on Wii U.

    Disappointing that it seems like they're doing the bare minimum for the TP HD port.

    It's contracted out to a third party dev and being done on the cheap, not like Wind Waker HD, which was done in-house.

    Probably because Zelda U's development is in full swing now, so they can't spare the in-house team this time.

    The Wolf Link bundled version seems to be much more common than Majora's Mask was, managed to snag a preorder off Amazon. GameStop keeps resupplying its stock as well.

    I can understand the concern but I wouldn't write it off yet. The 3DS remakes of Ocarina and Majora were contracted out to an outside studio (Grezzo) and they turned out just fine.

    I love that the Linebeck costume lets you sneak a peek at treasure chest contents. It's so fitting for the character.

    While this means there probably won't be huge revisions I imagine they'll still fix most of the quality of life issues like rupee text and such.

    There isn't really anything they could add/change in Twilight Princess that would make me want to buy it again. When they first revealed it, I had a hard time seeing that it looked any different from the original. Yes, the head-to-head showed that it does indeed look a lot crisper and some of the textures are better, but... it's not a big leap. If I wanna play it again I can just get my copy back from my brother. It's cool that they're making it, though! I'm happy for the folks who are excited about it.

    Oh god I hope they fix that. But since it made a repeat appearance in Skyward Sword I'm not ruling out the possibility of it still being there. Nintendo has a way of being amazingly tone deaf at times.

    No but Wind Waker never had that problem to begin with. It's something new they treated us to when the Wii came along: excessive tutorials and hand holding.

    True. However, I think the problem is that you were turning the game off.

    The problem is not me turning the game off. The problem is that they made it reset when I turned the game off.

    Man I disagree. You should be sitting there the entire time playing the game end to end with no breaks.

    Would be interesting if that's what happened during the final tests before it went out... They had the testers just pause the game and go home and come back so they never ran into the situation.

    I didn't see the direct, Linkle's going to be in the WiiU version too, right?

    According to this: http://nintendonews.com/2015/06/hyrule-warriors-version-1-7-0-update-classic-tunic/
    You’ll be able to transfer the new playable characters from Hyrule Warriors Legends to Hyrule Warriors on Wii U.

    But that sounds like you have to own the 3DS version. I'm guessing they will be available eventually as DLC, though.

    Worst case scenario, I'll get the 3ds version from GameFly and transfer the characters over. Unless the 3ds version is for new3DS only...

    Maybe, but your 3DS can talk to the WiiU so it's possible it's just a wireless transfer.

    I thought they said before that there would be a code in the box?

    As for TPHD, TP is probably my favorite 3D Zelda, but I only have the Wii version. I've wanted to try the GameCube version, but never could; now I can, and in HD -- possibly with improvements!

    So yeah, I'm good.

    There almost certainly will be a code or something. Nintendo is weird about that kind of stuff. Like the free Ganondorf skins that only required you to have a Club Nintendo account but you had to do all this crazy opt-in stuff and jump through way more hoops than you should have to get it.

    It's been confirmed for a while that the new characters would be in the Wii U version via using a code in the 3DS copy.

    It just remains to be seen if they'll also offer them up as DLC as well. At least they frickin' better.

    For people already playing, that Linebeck costume is going to be useless. If it sometimes let you see Friendly Tokens inside of chests instead of regular items that would be something else. But I don't need anything out of chests anymore. I'm not even done with all of the challenges. 3 more in the Sky Realm (if anyone wants to join for two timed runs and the itemless run for the final level).
