I'll just watch the EU one at 8 AM, not going to wake up for the 5 AM one.
Hope this Direct sells me a bit more on the game. Still afraid it'll get too repetitive.

Yeah same, I really want to like this game but it doesn't matter how many weird & wonderful characters they put in if it's as repetitive as the other Warriors games i've played. I'd like to see some more information on the level design, game modes and mechanics instead of just another montage of a character whirling through hordes of fodder.
Still, bring on that Ganondorf reveal tomorrow.

Not really expecting much from this one. We already got a ton of info and trailers. I mean what more can they show?!
...Though the fact he only has two DLC costumes has me worried. Maybe his default is the Twilight Princess outfit, given he looked very similar to that design in the E3 trailer, with the Wind Waker and OoT costumes being the DLC?
His teaser did give a heavy TP vibe. And he doesn't have a Skyward Sword design since, well, he's not in it.
Also, no way they show Zelda Wii U, I wish they would, but c'mon, that's delusional.
I feel that we won't see anything about Smash in terms of Zelda until the JP release date of the 14th. And even then I expet a Dorf reveal and nothing else.
TP default with WW and OoT DLC costumes. Main weapon being sword and magic with another choice being WW dual swords.

Ya, just show me a collectors edition and I will be content. I'm ready for all the moaning that we've already seen 75% of what is going to be shown.

Show me a collectors edition so I can throw even more money at this game.
It's ok to be a little deluded going into a direct.

I imagine #Handsomedorf to look like Hoska from HxH. Also, FABULOUS.

Ganondorf NEEDS to have a Trident and a Dual Sword moveset, even if he won't be in pig form or have a WW costume.
I wouldn't mind a Magic Fist moveset based off Smash Bros.

I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
Here's what I think...
We've got three Ocarina of Time characters, so I think we'll have two more Hero Skyward Sword characters and one more Twilight Princess character. This fits with the amount of spaces shown in the NicoNico video during the Story Mode portion.
Of course I imagine villains wouldn't show up there, so Ganondorf would still be revealed. Maybe confirm/deconfirm if the humanoid villains are playable in Mission Mode/a Villain Storyline.

I did forget! And it sounds like it'll be the last thing I watch before going to bed.
Put in my pre-order for Hyrule Warriors this morning though. Here's hoping we finally see some villains.

I wonder if Nintendo is tending to make more one-game-focused directs rather then normal directs. I expect to see smash/mh/pm direct this year.

I think they will continue to do both. I still expect a "normal"/general direct sometime within the next month. It just really hasn't been that long since E3.

I see game specific NDs replacing the monthly ones in cases where Nintendo feels they don't have enough to fill an entire WW ND.
Putting aside my love of Saria for a moment, Hyrule Warriors really was made to be a Ganondorf power fantasy. Since he's likely the "Power" collection of DLC costumes in the Treasure Chest set, he'll probably be shown in the Direct tonight, so they can start promoting his part of the special edition package. Looking forward to it!
Real talk, I'm not really 100% on board with the DLC costumes packs that they've announced and I expect that stuff to be handled poorly.
If I can play as windwaker ganondorf, they will have my money.
I'd say it's likely. Human Ganondorf only appeared in 3 games. Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess and Wind Waker. So him having only 2 DLC costumes makes sense if by default he has his Twilight Princess design.
Not expecting the Wind Waker design to be fat, though.

I think they'll announce Saria costume for Lana after the game release.

The last costume set, Power, has been confirmed to have two costumes. He'll have an original design and his Orcarina and Twilight Princess looks for sure.
Or this. Which I'm fine with.
o.o Amazing.
Also, I did forget. And I'm surprised to see it at a reasonable hour (East Coast Gaf checking in). Will look forward to it.

Of course not. They don't want people to confuse Zelda and Hyrule Warriors. We will see Zelda footage next year.
