Zelda is rarely a hapless princess. She's usually a Ninja Pirate Goddess Warrior Astral-Projecting Mage of Light AND Sage of Time who represents Wisdom incarnate.

If she were so wise you'd think she'd be able to avoid getting kidnapped every damn time.

 

But yeah, Dead Rising is a pretty westernized game today, and it really is just a Musou. With everyone's favorite enemies, zombies. ...My god, someone tell the HW team to shop in zombies everywere, this is gonna be HUGE!

You think just any character with some small amount of cunning and knowledge could evade Ganondorf at the height of his power for seven years while helping the hero and the sages the entire time? Or take over a pirate ship in their pre-to-early teens? Or understand the a time-warping battle plan they created back when they were the Queen of the Gods?

 

Bring me your champion of wisdom, knowledge, or cunning and - bar the Batman - Zelda will set their defeat in motion.
