Are you ready for the fan backlash that will come from Zelda Wii?

Can I ask a question, too? In response to that? I'm being serious.

What game hasn't had backlash that comes from Nintendo? Do 3D Marios and Metriods get less backlash than Zelda games?

I know Majora's Mask was just weird to some people, Wind Waker was too easy and tedious at parts, and Twilight Princess was too easy, too linear with a lack of sidequests, a gamecube port for the wii, tacked on sword wii controls and.."no soul", apparently.

That is a fair question, and I don't know if I have the proper perspective in order to answer it. I'm a lot closer to the Zelda-playing community than others. I think Zelda games tend to get the strongest amount of backlash because the players are so devoted to it, but my perspective is skewed on that front.

All games get some backlash, yes, but Zelda games are special

Then what could the series be doing wrong? I wonder what it is that makes a good deal of fans hostile towards the newer, recent games? Difficulty is one of them for sure, which I think was another disappointment that added to the anger for alot of fans with Twilight Princess. Seeing realistic Zelda as easy as Wind Waker must have displeased alot of people. Another was a lack of sidequests and things to do/fight in that huge open field called hyrule, which was mostly due to how big they made the main quest for a gamecube title with limitations. Not including things like controls, or graphics (it was a gamecube title, so its unfair to include preferenced aspects), I think those were the main problems. Right?
