I'm prepared. Most Nintendo games, especially nowadays, will recieve backlash. There will *always* be a very vocal group of people who will find something they do not like about a game, and moreso with Zelda.
Look at the backlash WW got, especially when it was unveiled. Then Nintendo created TP, but quite a few people dismissed the game for being too much like OOT. After WW, many fans were crying out for a new, more realistic approach, in the vein of OOT. Nintendo gave them just that with TP, yet people complained because it was too similar to OOT. I'm 100% certain that if Nintendo had done the 'realistic' style for TP, yet had somehow completely revamped the rest to be different from OOT, and offer something fresh, people would have cried and complained it wasn't enough like their dear old OOT. There's just no pleasing some people.
This time around, I bet most reviews will praise the game for trying new, innovative stuff and mixing things up, but somehow hammer it because of the graphics. Because it's on Wii. I'm certain the game'll be beautiful, and in fact one of the, if not THE best looking game on the console, leaps beyond TP. Yet people will compare it to HD games and whine. Which is just silly, it's not like people compared PS1 to Dreamcast games either at the time.
I couldn't care less. I have faith in Nintendo, and I've loved every Zelda game they made so far to bits. I'm sure Zelda Wii will be awesome beyond words, and I've learned not to listen to wining fanboys nor biased 'professionals' long ago.
