I'd be up for a playable giant Cucco and the attacks is uses are just swarms of smaller Cuccos.

DW8 is the main series, another good one is Warriors orochi 3 which is the combined Dynasty warriors and samurai warriors game.(original story, no need to play the previous games before it, although it was made before 8 so it doesnt have those new characters from that title.)

They better have Tingle as a playable character.
Well, seems they have a good working relationship with Tecmo. They worked together on Metroid after all. Nothing about this is truly that unusual. They work with Namco and Sega a lot too.

Since the only playable character that we know of is Link, this gives Koei/Nintendo an immense opportunity to tease information.
It's like Smash Bros. all over again. Every week or so they'll announce a new character/location/feature.

Maybe if Nintendo fans are lucky Nintendo will announce Cranky Kong as a playable character in this at the next Nintendo Direct.

And for the sake of the argument, Kanye went from Graduation, to 808's and Heartbreak....
Yeah. Regardless of how much you appreciate DW games, there is no guarantee that you'll enjoy this game.
If you play on a difficulty higher than normal you pretty much have to do more besides just smashing square or you will die.
I always kind of felt that brand dilution applied more to games of a similar genre or audience, personally.
Like: NBSMU, SM3DW, NSMB2
or Sticker Star, Dream Team.
I don't feel it applies to a brand if the games are different. Like going from playing Sticker Star, to SM3DW, to Mario Party (or something), to Mario Kart, to Luigi's Mansion, I wouldn't feel "too much Mario" because each game there is completely different.
So I know this Zelda game has fighting, and Zelda U will have...fighting, but that's about it. I don't see a big overlap so I don't see too much of an issue.
Playing and owning NSMBU could make someone slightly less hype and excited for something like SM3DW, because they're platformers. But if something like Hyrule Warriors made someone look towards Zelda U less....that'd be crazy.

Lol Kirby could eat demons and gain their powers digital devil saga style.

Link's own inventory from thoughout all the games could already fill out a playable roster on its own, if the fire staff from the video is any indication.
Heck, if they could do something crazy with, say, the Cane of Burma, that'd just sweeten the deal for me.

I was joking but now I am reminded of an Onion article. Time traveler from 2006 reports discoveries on HD games to Iwata.
Better screens
Lol, this game is ugly. And I don't think it's 60 fps because I feel I saw a little slowdown in the trailer...but we'll see.
It was always my understanding the issue with Other M was not what Team Ninja did in terms of gameplay but the story (how Samus was written) and how it impacted how you played the game (not being allowed to use weapons, etc). All of which came from Sakamoto at Nintendo.
Sweet Jesus you can say that again. Looks like a Wii game with some extra horsepower for more enemies on screen (that all look the same)

When they were 14? The series has received marginal to negative reviews throughout its lifespan.

I am happy that you enjoy the game, but even you have to understand that the game series has a rather tainted reputation. This leads a lot of people to be skeptical about attaching the Zelda name to it.
Meanwhile: Women still have no fingers
Dynasty Warriors style games attract people for different reasons so its hard to explain the series. Some people like doing everything and the grind, others like the challenge of the higher difficulty levels, some just like killing stuff, and the list goes on.
If anything, I would think that a game that actually focused on Bowser, his armies, and possibly his rise to power would be what I think could be the best usage of "Mario series" characters in the Musou formula.
Plus, Bowser has been needing his "own" game (re: no Mario or Luigi) forever. Why not give him one that would allow him, Junior, Kamek and the Koopalings a place to tear shit up?

Should look up Wonderful 101
BARF. holy shit, and i thought the final graphics in w101 were a bit weak.... (still love it tho)
Should look up Wonderful 101
Let's be fair, that went from atrocious to bad wrapped in plastic.
That said, I don't this 'Hyrule Warriors' looks that bad visually. To be honest, I quite like the HD Skyward Sword direction they're going for.
It looks painted.
It's understandable that people aren't expecting much from this game. But why are people expecting that this game is a sign of future Zelda game quality? Nintendo isn't making this game and I highly doubt that it's interfering with Zelda WiiU development. This is just bonus fanservice for Zelda & Musou fans, just as the Gundam and One Piece games were.

Should have been called Zelda Basara... since Sengoku Basara is 100x better than the warrior games.
but gaf told me that reviews dont matter!

So this is just a Zelda skinned Dynasty Warriors? Gross. Zelda is so far above this franchise, i feel like it's getting tainted by being associated with it. Is this the beginning of Zelda being whored out? Are we going to get Zelda Golf and Zelda Tennis next?

Wow ... just wow.
The end is nigh.
Now they are exploiting Zelda for a mindless dynasty warriors game and people flip about it.

I'm not expecting this to be incredible or anything, but if this releases in 2014 I'll get a Wii U this summer so I can play this, Mario, Smash, Mario Kart, and a few others.
Are Dynasty Warrior games typically multiplayer? I'd love to play a game like this with friends.

If you think it was just story you are sadly mistaken, there were those dumb pixel hunting moments (which you could argue were story related). But then we have the horrible HP system that is unlike anything else Metroid related (can only recharge HP when you are about to die who thought this was a good choice?), the uninspired item choices which is basically the standard Super Metroid items, the awful FPS missile usage that makes Samus stand still like a moron, the fact it can only be played with the Wii Remote sideways, and no option at all for Nunchuck, the linearity that made everyone appreciate Metroid Fusion all the more.
If Other M wasn't a Metroid game I could write it off as some bland action game but it's a Metroid game and it is bad on about every level.
I agree that Basara is better, but I rather the team focus on Sengoku Basara.

you're posting in a ZeldaxDynasty Warriors thread
Posts like these confuse me.
Zelda has already had spin offs before.
Four Swords. Crossbow training.
And this looks like a lot of fun! How is this tainting the franchise? Get over yourselves.
