Someone else submitted this video link but I made a separate thread as people who are not interested in the Wii U version would otherwise not see it:

The beginning of the video shows the Skystones card game.

EDIT: Link works now - copy/paste failed me, the first time around...

It 404'd

I think its a bit confusing. I could get used to it though

Whats confusing about it? If you ask here I may be able to help you get your head around it.

Hmm, that actually looks quite interesting.

Trading cards ingame HMMMM interesting..................

Did anyone else notice the following:

- The debug menu when the game played on the Gamepad only? This suggests to me that this isn't the final build of the game.
- That Lightcore Eruptor had both his upgraded volcano attack and blobs had faces. Both were different upgrade paths in SA, so maybe Lightcores can have both paths?

Yep all new characters can switch between paths

Skystones is awesome!

Is a difference between switching and having both paths for a character.

Actually looks quite fun, I hope it gets more intricate as well.

I doubt that is the final version as well because they had nothing about the "drop and drag" thing.

If it is I am disappointed with the GamePad use, stats are not that important and already accessable, and Objectives will be useless Post-3 Stars.

I'm just not going to worry about the path specifics anymore. I'll just report when the game comes here and tell you all how they work with the reposes and the new characters and stuff.
(Either way I hope we don't get to pick both paths at once. It would make every character except pretty much Wrecking Ball and Trigger Happy overpowered. )

That Skystones gives me a Final fantasy feeling, where you also had to collect cards in a simular game style!! You could basically ignore the whole story line and just keep on playing that game. totally Epic!

In case you didn't know, Skystones is actually a game played on a 3 by 3 board. Here is how you play:
1. Your opponent puts down a Skystone on the field
2. You choose a Skystone and play it on the field
3. If you have a Skystone with more spikes on it to one side than the one next to it, you claim that Skystone
4. Once the game board is filled, the person with the most Skystones on the field wins!
If you are still confused, go to the link in my signature and go to the tab "New in Skylanders" once you get there.

(I know all of this information because I got S:G early )
