Hyrule Warriors: Legends - Nintendo 3DS

I forgot how addictive this game was on the WiiU, and the 3DS version is no exception. The downside is that the game is only 1 player, but being able to switch between characters in battle makes up for it, as this comes in handy to save time traveling between bases and mission objectives as well as help level up all characters in a mission. I just wish Nintendo would already release the one character everyone has been dying to play as, yes I am referring to Groose!!! Common Nintendo, let the Groose be loose already!!!!

It is a dynasty warriors game through and through. Solid 7.5 the gameplay is good. Not plot heavy at all but interesting combat and mini puzzles keep it interesting for a good amount of time.

As a big fan of the Wii U version, I found myself never really wanting to sit in my living room to play the game, as I tend to play PC more. This allows me to play on the go or a battle before bed. Ive far surpassed my play time on the Wii U and actually find it to not look or perform nearly as bad as I thought it would (New 3DS). I did try this on a 2DS though which was not only a terrible frame rate, but far fewer enemies. Basically, it is essentially a New 3DS exclusive without actually being labeled as such, probably to sell a lot more. So while the game runs flawlessly for me, avoid at all costs unless you have a New 3DS!!!

For those of you who think this game should be exclusively for the new Nintendo 3DS, I have something to say: I disagree completely. Ive been playing it on my orriiiggiiinnaaall 3DS and it is a blast & a slice, if you know what I mean. After only having it for a little over a week, I had already sunk (Im not sure how many) hours into playing it. As a matter of fact, I almost couldnt stop playing. Hyrule Warriors: Legends is absolutely, perfectly fine to be played on the original 3DS. The only thing Ive noticed that seems to be lacking is being able to play it in 3D (and yes, I did notice that it said on the back of the game box that 3D gameplay is only available for the new Nintendo 3DS/new Nintendo 3DS XL), which is fine by me because playing these games in 3D can be disorienting for your eyes anyway. Hyrule Warriors: Legends is quite possibly the most addictive handheld video game Ive ever played.

I am playing this game on the original 3DS and I absolutely love it. I havent played my 3DS very much since Kingdom Hearts 3D and I was feeling like I was about to retire my console. I seriously love this game! I have had no problems with the graphics at all! The cut scenes are beautiful. Ive loved playing my 3DS again! Usually I can only play games for a couple days before getting bored but Im still having a blast. This game is fun and very fast paced. And again, I have an old 3DS. I bought it at the same time as Ocarina of Time.

This is a great game, very much like the Samurai games, and Ive not experienced any of the game play/display issues that everyone is going on about.

A little bit different style of game from the other Zelda titles, but still fun

The story was okay and the graphics could definitely be improved. The usually Zelda games are more strategic. Most of the battles are one to one, or one vs. a huge beast. In this game, its gives the feel of one vs. an army. This game is also the type were you play to level up instead of completing a story. This game is like a new breath of air into the Zelda Universe. Im giving it a four star because I enjoy the story more than actually trying to level up.

Gaaaaaaame

Honestly, Im just plain impressed that they managed to cram such a massive game onto the 3DS. Getting it to run is a miracle, too! Good thing I have a New 3DS, cause Ive heard it doesnt run well on the original 3DS. At any rate, I LOVED the original Hyrule Warriors on the Wii U, so it stands reason that I love this too. And I do!
