I REALLY wanted to comment on this, because I just have a lot to say about it, surprisingly enough!

Cuccos are in the game! It's awesome to see a recurring staple of The Legend of Zelda series appear. As I said in my trophies topic, I thought it was lame that the pigs from The Wind Waker got a trophy and not Cuccos, since they have essentially the same function (except Cuccos can actually hover a bit) and they attack Link if he attacks them too many times (except Cuccos attacks are a LOT more ferocious!). What I love even more about this is the fact that I feel a greater connection and understanding when it comes to Cucco here, since not only have I seen dozens of macro images and fan-made comics about the infamy of a Cucco attack, but I've actually done it! Once... a long time ago. I was a kid playing Link's Awakening, and I noticed you could attack Cuccos (which I called chickens at the time), and I wondered if I could attack it enough times to actually kill it and get some a Rupee or something, then all of a sudden, chickens started coming out nowhere attacking me! I ended up dying... and never attacking another chicken again.

This does beg a question, though. In Link's Awakening at least, I had to attack the Cucco multiple times (quite a lot if I recall correctly) in order to summon the attack... I wonder how many times you have to attack this Cucco in order to summon the attack. It can't be too many, because I feel like no one would be dumb enough to waste time attacking it too many times. Perhaps just once? That would make the most sense, seeing as the idea is to NOT attack it. Speaking of which, I remember Sakurai saying in Brawl, certain Assist Trophies could be attacked, but as far as I could tell, the only one that could be attacked was Stafy/Starfy, and since his attack is pretty pathetic and short-ranged, it essentially made him the worst of the Assist Trophies by default. It's nice to see that there will be more Assist Trophies that can be attacked, though I have to wonder if Starfy is going to get beefed up, so he's not quite as pathetic this time around.

Anyway, good update! Glad I got all of this out there before the next one!
