Should Zelda sacrifice its artistic integrity for the sake of greater sales?

No it didn't. It's cool to go against what your parents want. These ads emphasized that, it gave a reason (a stupid one at that) for kids and teenagers to want this game more. If the kid's mom didn't watched it, the kid would still get the game, and there's a chance the kid would still get the game even if his mom watched the ad.

But ok, if the ad stopped the mom from getting the game, that doesn't stop the kid or teenager from getting it, just like drugs, kids and teenagers find ways to get games without their parents knowing, it's not that hard, especially if you can download the game online.  

But in any case this isn't about the kid or teenager getting the game or not, is EA doing a marketing campaign towards kids, and like I said before, they know this kids represent a big group of today's gaming market.

I just watched the behind the scenes video. They targeted suburban conservative mothers just to scare them. Most of these women mostly by the looks of it had kids in their twenties and thirties.

Did you read what I just said? 

I understand your point. It goes in the same list with games like God of War, Last of Us, COD, Gears of War and others of that ilk that will try to get their hands on. I agree kids will always go for what they shouldn't have. I am just talking about the type of women they focused on in particular. It would pique my interest to see what mothers in their thirties and fourties would say about this game.
