It more likely suggests those two characters will be available for purchase separately. Or they might be unlockable through amiibos.
The DLC page says :
The Legends Character Pack, which costs £10.79 / €11.99 and will launch in summer 2016, includes Linkle, Skull Kid, Tetra, Toon Link, King Daphnes and Ganondorf’s trident weapon. This pack is not available as part of the Legends of Hyrule Pack Season Pass. Tetra, King Daphnes, Skull Kid and Ganondorf's new trident weapon will not be available to purchase outside of this pack.
This part seems to say indirectly that Linkle and Toon Link can be unlocked by other means. Maybe the will be sold separately or can be acquired through their weapons in the £8.99 / €9,99 Season Pass on Wii U. Weird.

As of now, the only way to get extra characters for Wii U, is to purchase the 3DS game and use the code. The Season Pass page mentioned something about getting a 3DS character locked to a certain weapon is you purchase that DLC Pack. I'm not sure abot that, though.
And yes, you can also purchase DLC Packs for Wii U, and you'll get the same characters and weapons as 3DS game does. Only Adventure Maps seem to be exclusive to Legends.
I've fully completed the game along with all the DLC. All character up to level 255, every piece of heart, every weapon, every skulltula, every A rank, and every medal.
How may hours played?
This makes sense.It says if you haven't purchase them through the Legends pack or downloaded them with the Legend pack in code, if you buy the DLC packs that give them an extra weapon, they will only be playable with that weapon, not their default weapon.
For example, if you purchase the LInk's Awakening Pack, but you didn't get Linkle through the Legends Pack DLC or the pack-in code, then she can only use her weapon from the Link's Awakening pack, not her crossbows which is the weapon she starts out with.
Around 450 I think.
Ever just look at how much time you've spent on a game(s) and feel deeply ashamed? Yeah, that's me right now.
So no maps for WiiU? Not interested then. I don't understand the logic behind this because the 3DS version doesn't appeal to me, but I guess they have done their marketing research.
Only the characters and weapons is far form everything. Plus it is only the characters and weapons for more than the previous three adventure map, characters and weapons season pass cost.Love that you can get everything on WiiU, pretty detailed plans too!
Spent a lot of time on this game, will be happy getting that DLC. Hopefully we'll get a HW2 someday.
The Great Fairy weapon was a thing and pretty large so who knows.Wind Fish would be awesome but I think he'd look kind of pathetic if they scaled him down too much so I'm not sure if they'd be able to pull it off.
Love seeing so much added to this game. I guess at this point there might not be much left for a sequel...groose was robbed!
I want the LA rep to be the frog prince from that other game boy game just for the odd factor.
What if you play as the Wind Fish?
The new maps probably incorporate the character switching mechanic pretty extensively.
ok, so, i can just get everything, even the new characters, on wiiu without spending money on the 3ds version? that's great, happy to go all-in again
You Kidding? There's still a ton left. All of the OoT sages that aren't in the game, Makar, Salvatore, Darunia, Mikau, Deku Link, Groose, Yeto/Yeta, and King Bublin would be good characters, and there are a ton of areas from those games would make good levels that aren't in the base game. This is all just from the 3D console games too, there's still a ton they could add from the 2Dand handheld games.
That's true. I was thinking of characters that would be "big", but the game is aimed pretty squarely at Zelda fans so even the most obscure characters will please many. I'd love to see characters like Malo, WW cannonball game owner, Batreuex, pretty much any unique NPC to be honost.You Kidding? There's still a ton left.

Just the weapons and characters, not the maps.
Has to be thisWe already have the great Fairy as a giant character. It's not out of the realm of possibility...
What options do we have? Marin? The Owl? The shopkeeper? Link's Awakening is a fine game, but doesn't have many noteworthy characters I think.
I shall join #TeamWindFish. I can already seem it falling to the ground for a massive smashing attack. Yes...
I'm planning to buy the DLC together with a friend. I own the Wii U version and he's gonna buy the 3DS one. I assume you buy one and get the code for the other, ala Smash, right?
The true VIP from Links Awakening need representation

It is there already. Lv 3 ball&chain Link's weapon added in a previous DLC.
Already a weapon in the base game. The final level of the Ball and Chain.
It's actually in the base game.
Thanks, couldn't remember when it was there.It's actually in the base game.
Hyrule Warriors 2: The Groose is LooseGeez. They don't seem to be leaving anything for the hypothetical sequel that would cover the older games.
Is there anything left other than LoZ, ZII, and LttP?
Also this is getting nuts. I haven't gotten this game yet, always intended to, but Jesus I just want to be able to get all the content on WiiU and not pay a ton of money for it.
Fingers crossed for a Complete Edition on NX or something.
Thanks, couldn't remember when it was there.
In any case, I'm #TeamRichard.
Marin is ze waifu and she's too pure to commit any sort of violence.

This is awesome news. Marin, Ravio, and Yuga seem obvious, but I think Spirit Zelda will get in over Linebeck.
