Dreams. Hopes. Desires. All of these have been crushed. Yes, those looking to see Skyward Sword‘s main villain, Ghirahim, enter the Smash Bros. fighting ring as a fighter will have to try again in another 5+ years as he’s making an appearance as an Assist Trophy.

“”No, I’ll just beat you within an inch of your life!” Demon Lord Ghirahim makes an appearance in Smash Bros!! He’s an Assist Trophy, so he could conceivably back up Link, too.” — Masahiro Sakurai

As it turns out, Koei Tecmo and Nintendo listen to their fans, as Zant and Ghirahim are only playable specifically because fans wanted them to be. The original plan was just to have them be enemy characters and nothing more, but fans spoke loud and clear – so I suppose I should be thanking all of you for finally letting me be Lord Deb… I mean Ghirahim. Of course this is the point where fans wish Koei Tecmo and Nintendo had listened even more, since we’re all still waiting for the Groose to be loose…

More images from the official Japanese Hyrule Warriors art book have emerged. Along with the photos, we have also gathered up some translated details from within the book.

It’s finally Hyrule Warriors day in Japan, folks! This also means spoilers are bound to be lurking in every corner. Following the Japanese release of the game, Koei Tecmo has uploaded the final character trailer in their series. This one is for Lord Ghirahim, the third playable villain in the game. He looks absolutely glamorous in his introduction, and, from that alone, it looks like the team has captured his personality perfectly. So fabulous! With equal measures of both sass and class, Ghirahim proceeds to show us the extent of his powers…

The Hyrule Warriors Official Japanese Website has been updated and we have some new details about Zant, Ghirahim, and Ganondorf, confirmed as playable characters in this week’s Nintendo Direct. Also, we have some other info about two enemies: Manhandla and King Dodongo…

We’ve had our suspicions for a while, but last night’s Hyrule Warriors Direct finally provided confirmation: we will be able to play as villains. While this is a completely new feature for The Legend of Zelda (outside of Super Smash Bros., of course), this is far from unusual for a game in the Dynasty Warriors franchise. And between the footage from the stream, the plethora of new screenshots we received today, and the official descriptions thus far, we’ve gathered quite a bit about these wanton warriors. While there’s still no character…

Some great new Hyrule Warriors screenshots recently appeared over at imgur, and there are a lot of new images of Cia, Ghirahim, Zant, the Dark Wizard, Volga, and Ganondorf, with some content worth theorizing about. Check out the pictures after the jump!

In tonight’s Nintendo Direct, Demon Lord Ghirahim from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword was announced as a playable character in Hyrule Warriors. He will fight with his sword and also make use of his teleportation abilities. His featured weapon is titled the Demon Blade. Similar to Fi, he is able to momentarily transform into a blade during battle. One of his special finishers also allows him to use his final transformation from the third encounter with him in Skyward Sword…

Hyrule Warriors‘ release is fast approaching, and now thanks to Nintendo of America we have even more information for you today. Earlier today we revealed Fi’s first official trailer and a slew of high resolution images, but now we have the descriptions for Fi, Ghirahim, and The Imprisoned. Head inside!
