In the visual style of the critically-acclaimed The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds comes a new adventure to save a princess from an evil witch’s curse. 3 friends team up – each as Link in different colour – to cooperatively make their way through inventive dungeons and battle bosses. Use the loot you get to create wearable outfits, each with a different boost or ability.
As Link, buddy up with two other Link characters and cooperatively solve inventive puzzles to progress through the game.
All three players share hearts, so they must work together to defeat enemies and solve puzzles.
Stack three Links on top of each other with the new “Totem” mechanic, which makes it possible to reach new locations to solve puzzles.
Collect loot to create wearable outfits, each with a different boost or ability.
Single-player mode allows the player to rent two paper dolls to take along to complete the team of three and face challenges in dungeons.
Team up with two other players in multiplayer mode via local wireless connection, online and with download play.

heat.
sales for this haven't been excellent apparently. read somewhere that it sold a quarter of what A Link Between Worlds did in its first week. I expect it'll dip below £20 soon.
it's a damn shame - I really enjoyed the demo.

From a massive Zelda fan i was hugely disappointed by this, the game is actually really good, its the finding a game that's the issue. If like me you don't have 2 friends to play with you have to play with randoms, if one of them disconnects or leaves the game ends, and you only pick a world so if you all don't agree on a specific level you can end up replaying a level you've already played. It's can be played single player but is 0 fun and just fiddly. Nintendo have really messed this one up

I had this preordered twice. I was really looking forward to some couch coop with the gf but everything you just said made me cancel it before release.
That being said. It's a Nintendo game. It'll not drop much lower than this I doubt so have some heat.

Just finished this and had a great amount of fun. Yes, people do drop out of games and you will lose connection sometimes.I would say that happened around 1 in 10 games for me. It was annoying but not enough to deter me from enjoying the game. It is better played with three players, whether locally or with random people online.
You can play through the game on your own, but it isn't as much fun and some of the bosses are trickier one your own, where you don't have a teammate to draw away the attention of the enemy.
Basically, if you enjoy zelda games then you will enjoy this. Not the best in the series but definitely worth playing.

I'll wait till sub £15 looks a bit half arsed like Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer. these past 2 games have been below Nintendo's usual standard
