Emblem Warriors

Emblem Warriors would be a game exclusive to the Wii U as a follow-up to Hyrule Warriors, a collaboration between Tecmo Koei and Nintendo. The most obvious change would be that instead of being based in the Zelda universe, it would be based in the Fire Emblem universe, making for more characters and varied playstyles.

Even though the concept for Hyrule Warriors has received a lot of heat, I personally think it's an interesting idea, and an interesting way for series to cross over. However, when I further pondered the idea, I found myself wondering why Zelda was the franchise they decided to use for a tactical battle game. My thinking is that the main reason they used the Zelda franchise is because it's one of Nintendo's three most popular IPs along with Mario and Metroid, but I personally don't think it's the best suited universe for this genre of game.

Instead, I feel that Fire Emblem would be the most fitting and interesting franchise to cross over with Dynasty Warriors. It is based around battlefield control to begin with, and every game in the series contains a collection of cool characters. Moreover, each of them has different specialties in combat, which would translate to different playstyles in a Dynasty Warriors context.
