Yeah some of you want the same aesthetics all over again (uncharted 1-2-3-4) But I think Nintendo fans are very glad with the changes on that on every Zelda, Wind Waker was amazing and now everyone says it, some of you want all Zelda to be the same as Ocarina, and then haters can say "Nintendo does always the same" ...but well, they say it anyway.

The graphics don't fit Zelda. It's kind of like making Metroid all weird looking like that. It doesn't work. Even Nintendo themselves admitted the best art style is the more "realistic" version. Play Smash Bros Melee, go to Events, and one of them is fighting against Nintendo's "realistic" (they use that word too) characters, and Link is among them.

The fact is, when Zelda has the OOT/TP style it sells best. Twilight Princess was (and is) the most hyped Zelda ever, and one of the main reasons for that is the art style (if not THE reason).

Right now Nintendo needs all the sales and hype it can get, so it just boggles my mind they are going for the weird art style again.

Tbf, Twilight Princess is one if not maybe the most hyped game ever. Also, I think Zelda HD got a lot of love unlike The Wind Waker and Skyward Sword. I believe that the game has a lot of hype behind it, not as Twilight Princess but not abysmal.

I also don't think a TP sequel like the demo would have worked more than another Ocarina of Time sequel. Nostalgia alone would have locked 3M early in the first months despite the installbase.
