I'm sorry for disappearing for the last few weeks. Just been dealing with a lot of stuff. I hope everyone is having a great 2016!

How about a ton of new Twilight Princess HD news??

Here's a new trailer with some Wii U exclusive features:

Do you like Miiverse stamps?

Apparently Miiverse stamps are hidden throughout chests in Hyrule.

Some other details:

  • Hero mode is confirmed. Flips the world and doubles the damage. No heart drops.
  • GamePad functionality includes maps on screen, quick item switches, and gyro controls for aiming items
  • The new "Ghost Torch" item allows players to find Poes more easily
  • Pro Controller is supported
  • File size is 4.509 GB
  • Release date is March 4, 2016
  • Game w/Amiibo is $59.99; Wii U digital code is $49.99
What about Amiibo?

"All physical versions of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD will include an intricate Wolf Linkamiibo figure. Purchasing The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD and Wolf Link amiibo bundle will currently be the only way to get this amiibo figure. Using this amiibo will allow players to gain access to the challenging Cave of Shadows. Also, some of the data stored on the Wolf Link amiibo figure can also be used with The Legend of Zelda game for Wii U, which launches this year. More details about this functionality will be revealed in the future. In addition, several amiibo in the Super Smash Bros. series (sold separately), including Link, Zelda, Sheik, Ganondorf and Toon Link, can also be tapped to the GamePad for various in-game effects."

Actually, we now know what the other Amiibo do.

Link and Toon Link: Both of these Amiibo replenish Link's stash of arrows to full capacity.

Zelda and Sheik: Tapping either of these gals to the GamePad will replenish all of Link's hearts, restoring him to full health.

Ganondorf: Using this Amiibo is more sadistic than the others; using Ganondorf makes all enemies twice as strong. If you use Ganondorf in Hero Mode, the odds stack higher against you, with enemies dealing four times the damage.

 

Here's a screenshot from Hero Mode:
