Topic: Hyrule Warriors (& Legends) - OT

@larry_koopa - Well, it may not be New exclusive but there may be some New 3DS-unique features. Like the C-stick camera you mentioned and generally making the most of New's improved specs so the frame-rate is better on the system compared to the regular 3DS, and other stuff like that.

I've finally fully completed the on disc adventure map (A rank in every stage and all collectables obtained).

The famitsu scans today show even more info, the story content of the 3DS version seems to be playable in the Wii U version.

I plan to get Legends. I wanted to play this game on the 3DS pretty badly.

@LztheQuack: I want to play all my Wii U games on the 3ds pretty badly!

I was interested in the DLC...but then I heard that 3DS version is needed. Screw it. :c

I really hope the 3DS version's unique content will just be DLC on Wii U or there is enough unique content that justifies the second purchase.

Well, it's a new bit of story with new characters that actually do something in it. Instead of one or two random characters that are just kinda there and a map filled with variations of things you've done before.

It could be worth it. We don't know how expansive will the WW story be, or if the game comes with other new things.

Same here.I also hope that the miniblins don't make their annoying sounds.

I'd be very disappointed if they don't do their "tah deh" sounds.

Do we know for certain that this game has all of the DLC from the Wii U version? I thought when it was revealed at E3 that the trailer or whatever only really mentioned the characters and not everything else. If it has all of the DLC, I will definitely wait for this version, but if it is only the characters I may go ahead and get the Wii U one.

As far as I know, we don't know much about this game.

A trailer and first gameplay:

Also a release date in Japan of 21st January. Really hope Europe has a 22nd January release date (21st is a Thursday)!

Yeah, I know, it's just that everybody seems to be implying that this game has all of the DLC, so I was just wondering if I had missed something because nothing that I have seen has said that.

@Tsurii: The only Adventure map DLC which features important unlockables is Master Quest (level 3 weapons for Cia, Volga, Wizzro). The 8 bit weapons are cool but not necessary to do well whereas using level 1 weapons for Cia, Volga and Wizzro make them pretty useless. What would be interesting is whether they make it that you need to complete Cia's Tale to unlock the Wind Waker story. Of course there wasn't requirements in the Wii U version for progression because what kind of game forces you to buy DLC to finish the disc story? Cia's Tale I'd assume would be on the cartridge and maybe it links in somewhat to the new story part.

As for what the Wii U version gets from the 3DS version, I think it'll be everything that separates the 2 versions but some content like the extra story missions may just be a standard "update your Wii U version to 1.8.0 and if you've completed both Cia's Tale and the disc story you get access to the Wind Waker levels" or "update your Wii U version to 1.8.0 and download this new DLC from the eshop".

@Tsurii: I forgot that you would actually be using Tetra and Daphnes so only either transferable from 3DS version and/or part of another season pass makes sense. The reason I think there will be some way to get the Wind Waker missions in the Wii U version is because it sounds like before that part of the story in the 3DS version is just copypaste from the Wii U version outside of worse graphics and less enemies. So you'd go through the events of the Wii U version and once you've completed the final Wii U mission you'd get the credits followed by the cutscene involving Lana and the spirit fragment.

I'll end up getting this game used. I just can't throw $60 at a game I'm not sure I"m going to like.

I'm having a hard time A-ranking the mission for Agitha's 8-bit weapon.I tried it multiple times in single player with Agitha(level 255,level 3 weapon) but I always get too much damage.So i tried as 2P Link(also level 255 and level 3 weapon)with wiimote+nunchuck in two player mode (while 1P Agitha was standing still in a safe place) but I still failed because,while I took little damage,I went overtime.

@Randomname19: Is your Agitha's badge collection complete? If not, work on doing that first.

As for general strategy, spamming the stag beetle combo (I think it's a stag beetle anyway, BBY is the combo if you're using Zelda controls) generally makes short work of enemies. Having the hookshot equipped also helps with the Aeralfos.

I haven't attempted that stage yet as I'm trying to 100% Master Quest before moving further with the Twilight map but that strategy hasn't failed me for the Agitha missions I have done..

@Grumblevolcano: Yes,i have all of her badges.
Thanks for your advice .

EDIT: I did it!
