Yeah. Didn't you know? The ocean in Windwaker is an ocean of moonshine.

I pre-ordered the Zelda themed 3DSXL a few days ago because I've been wanting to upgrade my regular 3DS. I can't wait to play the new one. I just hope we get virtual console releases for A Link to the Past before it comes out, preferably on the 3ds itself. Mine is loaded up with every Zelda it can be and I'd really like to have it on there too.
I'm right there with you. Well, I don't have a 3DS yet, but that may just change tonight. And when it does it will most definitely have every possible Zelda.
I'm playing Prime 2 now, and man, I couldn't agree more. Kinda surprised there hasn't been a new Metroid since Prime 3, but I guess it's always been their more neglected franchise.

I loved the way they use Master Hands in the dark world woods dungeon. Its fantastic.
I've hit a few brick walls in the game though, in the Ice and Swamp Dungeons. I've got the rest done, all the items purchased, and I'm wandering about finding the little octopus guys right now. I don't want to look up how to get by them online. I'm hoping a bit of time away and I'll be able to figure it out.
This. Overall the use of 3D is really, really great. I'm about 4 hours in and I adore nearly every aspect of the game.

The gameplay was fine... the story and characterization however, were an abomination.

A spin-off Zelda game is coming out next year.

Spin-off? Is it a battle game rather than an action adventure?

Not a lot of info is out yet, but it's been said it's not one of the "main games".

I've never played a Dynasty Warriors game so I'm not sure what to expect either. I'm not big on games that are all mindless combat so I'm not exactly excited.

An open world Zelda that looks to have learned from the extremely well implemented exploration style from Link Between Worlds?
Hell yes. Double hell yes.

Dynasty Warriors is a series of action games that replicate the historical battles of ancient China. You pick a general and relive epic battles. There will be a huge battlefield stuffed with your army and the enemy's army and your goal is to hack through enough of them to win the battles. Generally this means carving your way through various hot spots throughout the map where there's a constant tug of war between the two vying armies. There will be other objectives like claiming certain territories or taking out enemy generals or just surviving for a set span of time. The criticism usually comes from the fact that the combat is overly simplistic. The appeal is the huge size of the armies and a large roster of playable characters who can all be customized and upgraded. Typically there's a lot of variety in replay and game modes.
Hands on demos of Hyrule Warriors suggest that the typical Zelda gadgets will return and can be used strategically (bombs against Dodongo, timed for when his mouth opens, for instance)and it appears it will retain some degree of dungeon exploration to unlock new tools, but I'd expect combat to be the main appeal in the game. My guess is that there will be less characters than the dozens that are usually packed into a DW game, but the combat will hopefully be a bit more complicated. The director has mentioned they pulled in members of Team Ninja (Ninja Gaiden) to tighten the fighting. I'm kind of interested in it. It's not a system seller, but if the DW series is any indication, I imagine it will be packed to the gills with fan service and dumb mindless fun.
