So you can transfer the character to the Wii U version....
Oh, I see. Ugh. Nintendo taking heavy notes from Western AAA DLC practices this gen and I really, really do not like it. (no, I doubt Tecmo Koei would be allowed to implement this without Nintendo so don't even suggest it's their fault.)

At least we know now that it is Hyrule Warriors 3DS. I can only imagine the hype shitstorm that would have happened in the E3 thread when the direct would have shown that hyrule/triforce logo in the beginning and everyone went batshit crazy over thinking it was Zelda Wii U.
Although, who am I kidding? People will still see the Zelda thing and bitch a ton when it turns out to be 'just' Hyrule Warriors 3DS.

That's an interesting question in the other direction, too: would my purchased content from Wii U be available on 3DS?

I don't know if I want to double dip.
There's no way it'll double the original. It may be on a higher user base but it's still a very late version.
Makes me wonder if they'll release an update to allow the Wii U version to do that. Being able to switch characters on the fly was one of the things I wish the original had

3DS has a user base that's orders of magnitude higher than the Wii U's. For KT, it's absolutely a sensible decision.
How about as incredibly limited run amiibos?

They already said Zelda Wii U won't be at E3

Yeah (very Smash 3DS) but, I don't know... the Wii U struggled with the game when it got hectic. Would cell shading really help with that much of a power difference?

Ok, ok, maybe not always, but most of the time. The point is that it doesn't mean anything about whether it's new 3DS exclusive or not.

This needs cross-save functionality SO BADLY. If it does, I'm buying this on day one without any hesitation.

I swear, if this port has online coop and not the Wii U version, all of the oceans on this Earth won't be able to hold my salt.
This is pretty awesome though. More Hyrule Warriors is always welcome.

Weird. Then again the Assets from the Wii U game weren't too me anything special. I guess it was feasible to do a port.
I really wonder how much the framerate will suffer and the number of enemies.
Honestly I would rather an original handheld entry with all the the Toon Link and 2D Zelda characters.

So this is an "enhanced" (obviously not graphically) port, yes?
Also, I assume the WW characters will be released as seperate DLC for the Wii U. I don't think they will lock them behind the 3DS version but rather will give them out for free as a reward to those who own both, similar to what Smash Bros. did with Mewtwo.
Hyrule warriors is like crack, they gave us so much of it for so little money, we loved it, we took it all, we are hooked, we will now all pay the full cost of a 3ds game for a just a couple of characters

I know, but that never has stopped (crazy) people from still hoping. I just feel that people would have convinced themselves Nintendo had lied and decided to surprise us with it anyways based on just that logo showing up.

NCL's, maybe.
Original Hyrule Warriors had a very different DLC setup in Japan if I remember correctly.

could we in theory get a second season pass now?
??? I'm confused, what is wrong with more characters? Hyrule Warriors had a very healthy rooster without the Season Pass (With it you have an incredible one since the movesets are so different) and I'm pretty sure they will offer them for purchase as they did with the other DLC characters...
I don't see what the problem is with this tbh. It's a game on a different format, with format exclusive characters, The bonus is that you can then upload these to your Wii U if you own it on that too.

Looks like Smash 3DS. Is it possible that they used the same engine? Was that Namco made?

You mean like Mewtwo in Smash 4?

So very sick of these pre E3 announcements.
I would have bought this over the WiiU version if I'd had the choice. Infact, Hyrule Warriors was what tipped me over the edge to get a WiiU in the first place, so I'm actually a little pissed off this took so long to get announced.
Ah well, I'm not too bothered by Tetra, and that Hyrule destroying Boat King can fuck right off. Skipping it.

They show the box art at the end, and it's not the New 3DS box that Xenoblade had.

To people freaking out about how this could possibly work on 3ds, here is this fantastic launch 3ds game I poured tons of hours into:

Any more unlisted Tecmo Koei leak videos out there? Maybe like a Ni-Oh or something?

Marin and Ricky hype.
I believe the DLC was just more expensive in Japan.

Right, I think that's actual evidence for it not being exclusive.

Well then it's not an E3 spoiler. It's a pre-E3 spoiler.
I'm sorry, but all of games, no one can feel short changed by the amount of content Nintendo gave in the base copy of Hyrule Warriors. If anything, they are probably funding the new characters via this port and just figured they could easily port them back to the Wii U as well. I don't see this as some huge bilking.
