| BraveNewWorld said: Definitely adult Link. I think The Legend of Zelda works much better with a darker tone - Twilight Princess is my favorite Zelda - and a darker tone works better with adult characters. Most people agree with me; look at the reactions and sales of Wind Waker (4.5 mil) compared to Twilight Princess (8.5 mil). I like what they're doing rith now with more cartoony Zeldas being smaller adventures on handhelds and more realistic Zeldas being grandiose adventures on consoles. It matches the target demographics of each type of Zelda. |
Wind Waker outsold TP on the GCN.
I disagree completely, bet everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
I don't think the Wii U Zelda will be "darker" because of how Aonuma talks about it, and how the last three Zelda games (Skyward Sword, Wind Waker HD, and ALBW) have all been the oposite of "dark/realistic," but I think it's up in the air whether he'll do another adult console Link. I feel like there's a good chance he might go for younger because we've had a whole generation of adult Links, and he already said that he's getting bored with how he's been making recent Zeldas and wants this one to be a drastic change.
