I feel like if they went with the style of the tech demo, it could potentially match twilight princess in sales. I really don't think it looks like a big system seller now. What do you think?


Video game message boards are the worst place to gage mainstream opinion. Why? Because we're all nerds. Nerds will vote for cartoon graphics. But nerds make up about 10% of the console industry. The rest are dude bros and in betweens and those types want realistic graphics and mature games.

You are compeltely right. If Nintendo made Zelda like a 3rd person Skyrim, voice overs and full production values, it would be a SMASH hit commercially. But unfortunately, Nintendo are too conservative. This game will probably sell like SS, if it's lucky. And that's not to say it won't be a great game. I'm sure it will. But the WW is proof enough that cartoon graphics=fail.
