Nintendo Direct - Cloud Reveal Trailer, Twilight Princess HD, & MORE!!

Cloud Strife announced for Super Smash Bros, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD unveiled, and MORE in the latest Nintendo Direct!

Arguably the biggest surprise today was Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy VII debuting on the popular fighter, Super Smash Bros. for the Wii U and 3DS.

The music sure got me pumped up. The Midgar stage looks fantastic, and the summons look amazing. Definitely a character I am looking forward to playing as. No release date was announced, but Nintendo will be doing a special Smash Bros-centric Nintendo Direct in December so keep an eye out for more info and surprises.

Nintendo also officially unveiled The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD for the Wii U, along with a brand new Wolf Link amiibo.

You can purchase the amiibo bundled with the game, though Nintendo has not announced what function the amiibo will serve. Other series-related amiibo, including Link, Zelda, Ganondorf, Sheik and Toon Link, will also be compatible with the game. Furthermore, Nintendo revealed that the data on the Wolf Link amiibo can be transferred to the upcoming Zelda Wii U game. Expect to hear more on that tidbit soon.

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD will be available on March 4, 2016.

Nintendo also showed several other upcoming titles such as the new Fire Emblem, Hyrule Warriors Legends for the 3DS (Featuring a female Link!), and a rerelease of the original, first generation Pokémon games. For all that and more, here is the full Nintendo Direct for your convenience.

The Legend of Zelda - Wii U Gameplay Demo

Nintendo has revealed new gameplay footage from the The Legend of Zelda for the Wii U!

The demo premiered last night during The Game Awards. The graphic design and draw distance look amazing, and the game world looks enormous! This will be a game worthy of exploring via horseback.

Furthermore, Star Fox was announced to be releasing next year before The Legend of Zelda hits. It could be a great year for Nintendo fans.

The Legend of Zelda for the Wii U is currently set to release sometime in 2015.

Hyrule Warriors - Features Trailer

Watch Link, Zelda, and more in action in this awesome gameplay trailer for Hyrule Warriors for the Wii U!

While the game certainly appears to lack the depth of a regular Legend of Zelda game, there is plenty of action and variety to make up for it.

The game is developed by Tecmo Koei with the hack-and-slash gameplay style of their Dynasty Warriors series. The cast boasts several playable characters from different games in the Zelda series such as Midna from Twilight Princess, Fi from Skyward Sword, and Princess Ruto from The Ocarina of Time.

Nintendo has been releasing individual gameplay trailers that focus on specific characters and weapons. For example, check out this gameplay trailer of Impa using a Naginata.

Make sure to check out Nintendo's YouTube channel for more gameplay videos.

Hyrule Warriors will be released for the Wii U in Japan on August 14th, in Europe on September 19th, and in the US on September 26th.
