That is unexpected as ****. Funny, just last night I was wondering how cool a Zelda game that was a proper hack and slash would be. I was already getting a Wii U when the new Zelda came out for it, but it looks like we'll be getting a proper game and this awesome spin-off. Day one.
You and everybody in the world. Even Iwata felt the need to say "remember this is not a part of the Zelda series", it speaks volumes of how much we shoulde expect from the game.

He said that so people wouldn't mistake this for Zelda U and freak out. It still looks interesting to me, the Bokoblins are plainly not going to be much more than the fodder enemy, anyway, as we see just from the trailer there are much more powerful enemies in game, and likely a lot more than we saw in a 1 minute trailer.
I'm stoked, this will help hold me over til Zelda U comes out.

Hmm I dunno, not really sold on the idea. I think Zelda should keep making Zelda style adventure RPG games and let DW do its thing. Don't know what the point of this is, other than providing an arcady hack and slash with a zelda theme... Focus on a decent addition to the saga, not a time filler that will taint the franchise.
Again, the fact that Iwata has to speak up to the community to explain this game is not the Zelda U game everyone is waiting for sounds like a disaster waiting to happen as misinformed buyers see this title in the stores.
Put this up in the Blue Oyster Bar, but figured it deserved to be here as well. Don't care if it's way too early for this, but hopeful characters to be playable in Hyrule Warriors:
Zelda
Bo
Ganondorf
Vaati
Midna
Aghanim
Off the top of my head.

Not sure I see how it's a time filler, unless you just mean our time. Zelda-U is still in production, and different teams are working on them. This game is not taking any resources away from the normal Zelda style, so I'm not seeing how this impacts Zelda-U in any way.
Do people think that this is somehow preventing other Zelda games from being made or something?

I'm not sure what everyone's so worried about, Nintendo always keeps an eye on any game where one of their IPs is in use, Other M, and Metroid Prime are both examples of this, the gameplay in those games was amazing.
This will in all likelihood turn out to be awesome, and it in no way negatively impacts Zelda U.
