With the most recent Nintendo Direct, we got a look at a new Zelda game. Unfortunately, it's not the new 3D Zelda game we've been waiting for. Instead, it is "Hyrule Warriors"... a spin-off title made in cooperation with Tecmo Koei, creators of the "Dynasty Warriors" series... that this new game seems to be taking it's gameplay from.

What he said. ^
I've never played a normal Dynasty Warriors, but I have played a couple of the Sengoku Basara games and they were fun, and this doesn't seem very far off...
The trailer looks exciting. I want to play it and I want to play it now.

Looks pretty cool, certainly needs some polish, but I'll keep an eye on this. I'd have liked to see more than one character, hopefully they'll expand the roster. Right now Link already has a greater movepool than any Dynasty Warriors character, but still, much of the draw for those games comes from the variety of characters to choose from. If it were Link and only Link I could see this game getting boring after the first 20 hours or so. Although the variety of enemies certainly adds something, not simply cutting through hordes of faceless minions.

I'm thinking that they'll add a few sages, Zelda, Shiek, and if we're really lucky we'll get to play as those heroes from the bar from Twilight Princess.

I honestly think the game looks exciting enough where it doesn't really matter if there's more than just Link. I'd be happy with that. But I can't say I'd be disappointed if they had more to choose from.
The Zelda series doesn't really have many established badasses though aside from Link. I can see Sheik working and maybe someone like Darunia or a similar Goron badass, but that's about it. If they expand the playable roster beyond Link they'd likely have to come up with original characters, which wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing but I'd find it hard to be as excited about them as I would be about Link.

They could do kid Link and have the transformation masks from MM, I know its a stretch but it'd be cool.

I think it's more likely they'd have goron or zora characters (most likely original ones for the game) that may play similarly. I'm not really feeling this multiple Link thing everyone seems to be pushing to be honest.

Noticed this wasn't in here.
It's long, but definitely worth a watch.

Well that was an interesting video, I'd say the game is shaping up nicely.
