Better question is will this be the first home console Zelda game in forever to be loved from the start??
Wind Waker, Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword all copped a lot of hate for some time, usually until the next game came around =P
Not sure about Majora's Mask, probably in the same boat with that 3 day cycle.

No, because it's impossible. Zelda fans are spoiled and there will always be a vocal minority saying it's the worst game ever as soon as it's released. Or even before that - hell, since the E3 reveal there were actually already people complaining "omg they went cartoony kids again this will be crap". It's impossible for it to not get criticism because expectations for every new 3D Zelda are infinitely gigantic and there's millions of Zelda fans who love the franchise for different reasons and they'll hate on the games that don't follow the same structure as some other entry they love.

Still, I think both Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword were loved from the start, the hate only started to become really strong about a couple of months after their releases when the hype faded.

This.

As soon as it releases there's going to be an avalanche of "worst Zelda evaaar!!!1one!" proclamations, just as there was for the last four console Zeldas.
