The inclusion of online multiplayer in The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes can be at least partially attributed to feedback Nintendo received from Four Swords Anniversary Edition. In an interview with 4Gamer, Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma mentioned that the team learned via surveys on Club Nintendo that players wondered about the lack of Internet functionality within the DSiWare title. With Tri Force Heroes, the team wanted to make sure that online support would be integrated.

The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes features over 30 costumes that can be accessed through normal play. But there’s one that is only obtained by teaming up with friends locally.

When playing local multiplayer (including Download Play), you’ll receive an item called the “proof of friendship”. You’ll get one “proof” per friend’s system. A currently unspecified amount is needed in order to obtain the special costume.

Speaking with Japanese website 4Gamer, Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma and Tri Force Heroes director Hiromasa Shikata explained that the team thought they should make a reward for those people for play locally. Head past the break for our translation of the interview excerpt.

Nintendo has opened the full website for The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes. Access it here. You know what to expect – information, screenshots, and videos pertaining to the game.

A couple of days ago, Nintendo published a Zelda: Tri Force Heroes gameplay video with series producer Eiji Aonuma. We now have a video with much more extensive footage, which you can view below.

Aonuma was actually playing the game as the first online demo period went live in Japan. Nintendo is planning two more sessions next weekend.

Those of you with North American 3DS systems can now pre-load The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes from the 3DS eShop. By purchasing the game now, you can download most of the data ahead of time. You’ll only need a small update when Tri Force Heroes comes out to begin playing.

I did want to point out a small other tidbit as well. The eShop listing says that the Circle Pad Pro is a supported feature, so there’s a handy piece of information for you!

The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes launches later this month. The game is scheduled for release on October 23.
