Has Zelda franchise lost its way since Ocarina?

[Kos-mos]

No.

Majoras Mask was the most magical Zelda game.

Wind Waker let you see the ocean instead of forest. Change isn`t bad. Cell what? Who cares?

Twilight Princess was Ocarina of Time all over with funny Wii controls. This was the first Wii game and I loved to try out the nunchuck and Wiimote.
