Sadly, I fear you are right. A Zelda in the style shown at E3 2011 would be amazing, but knowing Nintendo they'll opt for some sickly Nickelodeon look instead, like Wind Waker and Skyward Sword.

I'm going to be honest, I wouldn't mind one bit if Nintendo decided to stick with cel-shading for Zelda.


I'm not a fan, for me cel shading too often results in bland masses of colour. I don't want it  to look like Skyrim, that would be boring, but that Zelda tech demo looks exactly how my dream Wii U Zelda would look; such an elegant blend of realistic yet stylised. 

Looking at Nintendo's history though, (Skyward Sword, the DS Zeldas, Wind Waker on GC -a console similiar in philosophy to Wii U- and Wind Waker HD) I'm sure we'll get one that's too cartoony for me. Does Nintendo not realize how many gamers would be sold by a "Twilight Princess in modern graphics" visual look for the next entry instead of another toon one?


Personally I have no issues with cel shading, but MOST people want to see Zelda in HD gfx. We have been waiting for years for this to happen.

Since Nintendo is doing a wind waker remake I want them to use real HD gfx for the new Zelda.

Also I know most have seen this video of the fan made Majora's Mask in HD. 

I would buy this remake (as my original got stolen beforeI could finish it) if it looked like this haha:
