Actually you can have diversity with 2D games, just look at the NES and SNES and handhelds, and only one 3D Zelda has ever passed 2D Zelda.

Its more profitable to make games 2D, you can have more diversity and more games out in a year with 2D, and sales will be on par or even better than 3D, so yeah 3D is pointless

Avinash, the first Zelda is not a proper metric here. It outsold every other 2-D Zelda by 30%, minimum. The 3D vs. 2D sales battle is roughly even, except that Twilight Princess tilts it in favor of 3D

  No OoT is the best argument for 3D, but TP proves the flaw in 3D Zelda, no 3D Zelda will ever equal OoT, but you can be sure TP was more expensive than OoT, and much more than LttP or LOZ 1, for less sales than LOZ 1 and only a bit more than LttP
