Zelda U: The Zelda title the Wii U deserves, but not the one it needs?

I really hope cell-shaded Link is a temporary model holder. I am DONE with cel shading, I loathe it more than peas, and I can't f**king stand peas. 

When 3rd party zombi-U can do realistic character models, there's no excuse for a lack of HD Link.

They're going to do cel-shading, it's Anouma. He wants to build on Skyward Sword, never mind the fact that a good amount of the community wasn't impressed with it.

The game looks great, but it feels like they missed out on a mjor opportunity. A realistic Zelda like the one shown at E3 could have brought the Wii U back from the dead.

This looks good, and I'm sure it'll be a lot better than Skyward Sword, but I doubt it pushes Wii U sales. 

I liked Skyward Sword quite a bit. I was ok with the cel-shading graphics, because it was a SD system. Wii U is a HD system, so Zelda needs to show it's HD. Hell, even animated films are better looking than this these days.  It'll sell for the hardcore Zelda fans, but it's not going to be a big system mover.

Maybe its time that Nintendo got Retro or another western studio to make the main Zelda games?
