What has happened to Zelda this generation?

That's a good representation but in my case I am still upset that ALBW reused so much of ALttP. This might be fine, but this is coupled with the fact that Nintendo is remaking so many other Zelda games at the same time. It's been 4 years since anything genuinely new. This is still assuming Zelda U makes it this year. When you represent it by generation instead of year, it also looks even worse.

If I'm not mistaken, ALBW only reused the overworld of ALTTP. Everything else was different. It's like me getting upset about a good chunk of Dead Space 2 being set in the ship from Dead Space 1. 

And really, it doesn't look worse. Last gen had two DS games that aren't seen as very high quality by most of the fanbase, coupled with a GCN port and a new game that required motion controls. In contrast, this gen we have a sequel to what's thought to be one of the best games of all time, 3 remakes of some of the best games in the series and a beautiful, original home console Zelda with the biggest overworld in the series. I'd say this is the best gen to be a Zelda fan, personally.

I don't think it's all that reasonable to get upset about the remakes, when they're not really taking away anything from the fans but rather filling time while we wait for the games we would've had to wait for anyways. You know what I mean?

I'd be angry if I was a dead space fan and that happened. Personally, I really enjoyed PH. I didn't like ST because it had a shitty travel system and overworld. I think that last gen had a way better showing in new content then this gen. We clearly disagree on this and since this is what we are arguing over and it is entirely subjective, this is as far as anything can go.
