The Next Zelda NEEDS To Have Realistic Visuals

But let's say Twilight Princess sold more because people like a dark Zelda game. Do you think another Zelda game as dark as Twilight Princess will be enough to attract the other gamers who enjoy franchises like Uncharted or Skyrim? 

Never said make it gory and gritty, I said make it dark like Twilight Princess, that way it's got the best of both worlds and can bridge the gulf between the two audiences.

And parents tend to be less worried about fantastical violence against monsters than about violence against fellow humans in games.

I don't think the audience that would normally avoid touching the Wii U will settle for a dark Zelda game like Twilight Princess. Its violence is too mild compared to Uncharted and Skyrim.

I can see your point about violence against monster. But what about the violence done towards Link or other Hylians? And will Link have the freedom to hurt innoncet Hylians like killing npcs in Skyrims? This is what these gamers expect and want. Having anything less is selling them short and will lose their interest. Twilight Princess is a dark Zelda game but it isn't even a dark and realistic game compared to other darker and realistic adventures games for the Xbox or Playstation. We have to face the fact that Zelda is in the same genre as Skyrin or Uncharted but is limited to milder violence due to its traditional appeal to children and adults. Zelda will not be Zelda anymore if it wants to cater to those gamers.

I don't think i has to be Skyrim violent to attract this crowd, just like Twilight Princess didn't have to be God of War violent to attract the "hardcore" who avoided Wind Waker like the plague.
