Those just sound like generic placeholder titles to me. You may be right, but I'm expecting it to be something more specific.
team ninja + Nintendo director on an hystorical Nintendo franchise.
I'm calling it: Zelda will have some voiced line like: "The baby"
One Piece Musou is called Pirate Warriors.
ω is the small Greek letter Omega, it's not a "w".
Anyway, I'm curious if the name will be Zelda Something in the West. I believe Nintendo does want the Zelda name associated with the game. I guess "Zelda Warriors" would be one name candidate.
What I find very curious is that Team Ninja is involved. Have they done any cooperation with ω-Force?

For what it is worth, Nintendo Co. Ltd, who regularly trademark Western names in addition to the Japanese ones, trademarked 'Hyrule Warriors' in Japan.
Well, it can't have a 'The Legend of Zelda' title because, well, it's not a 'The Legend of Zelda' game. Musou/Warriors would need to be mentioned at the very least, so you're pretty limited in your options from that point on.

Thanks for the translation JoeM86 and StreetsAhead. Exciting stuff.
... and I can feel Shia Labeouf references coming. I'm scared.

Hyrule Warriors or Zelda Warriors is probably it, but I'm still thinking that they sound too generic and that it could possibly get a different title.

Yeah... guess we'll see soon one way or the other.
Zelda Warriors would be a better name for the west.
Zelda fans who are hungry for a new Wii U game will buy it anyway, regardless of the price. The rest doesn't care either way. I don't see how offering it for a budget price would change anything, really.

From the price to the Famitsu reveal... yup, it's published by Tecmo-Koei (only in Japan) alright.
Hope price won't be too much of an issue. I'm surprised they couldn't get a cheaper price, since it's a Nintendo collab.

The mask on the woman in the scans is probably a Majora's Mask like being. Probably the "real" villain. I'm guessing it will have some of the classic villains in addition to the new ones.

Warriors of Hyrule sounds better to me. Or Zelda's Warriors. Charlie's Angels.
Don't forget that several years back, they pitched a Pokémon & Dynasty Warriors crossover, but TPCi turned it down and then Conquest came into play

Any chance this will release outside of Japan? These types of games aren't popular anywhere else as far as I know. With Link in it it could be mildly successful elsewhere
100%. It has been announced for the West since the beginning.
Edit: Btw., most of the Musou games make it to the West, so this is not just because of Link.
100% chance.
Nintendo is publishing it outside of Japan.

Dynasty Warriors pretty much always releases outside of Japan, add to the fact that this is Zelda and it has already been announced for the west and I don't see why it wouldn't.
I think it is 100% confirmed for a Western release. DW games as already seen Western localization before, as their licensed spinoff (Ken's rage, One Piece Pirate Warriors), it was presented on a WW Direct by Iwata and Tecmo-Koei is expecting 1 million units sold thanks to western awarness of the Zelda brand
what are you referring to?

The regular dynasty warrior games still get localized. Even if they didn't, Nintendo isn't gonna let a zelda spinoff stay unlocalized when wiiu needs games this badly.

Kind of hard to tell but yeah I think they both are the same character (correct me if I am wrong).
That bottom left guy kind of looks like a wizrobe...

Impa as a playable character makes perfect sense. If they're pulling from Skyward Sword then Ghirahim would be nice too.

I'd just like to see some solid assets like official art or screenshots that aren't from a compressed video.
It reminds me of the rumor which said samus, takamaru and others would be playable.
On the first page of the scan, there's a picture of Link from Twilight Princess.

I guess I should beat skyward sword before this comes to the US.
I thought one was the main villain Shia (glowing mask?) and the other was one of Shia's minions (Vi was it?)

Right, apart from the two released with the reveal, we got nothing. Hopefully we get some more once the magazine is on sale and Famitsu posts the info online.
Based on usual magazine/leak times. I'm guessing we shall get them on Thursday or Friday, if the official site doesn't update tonight.

You should do that anyway. It's awesome. I think I've played through it three times? Maybe twice completely, but at least two and a majority of a third. There is some padding that should have been excised but overall it's a wonderful game. Then again I'm not one of the "recent Zelda games suck" naysayers.
Really? Awesome. I've never played Dynasty Warriors beyond like a demo I think of an older one, but this should be a nice supplement until Zelda U proper arrives.
Zelda plus Shia makes it being not in the same timeline canon as SS

Guess I won't speculate too hard until we get some better images. But the mage looking guy on the bottom probably is at least one of the henchmen (Wizuro?). If that is his name that he is likely based on a wizrobe.

Do Dynasty Warrior type games tend to have split screen?
