OoT has been called LttP 3D for nearly 20 years. TP is OoT Jr. to many fans. Any Zelda fan will acknowledge that the formula has barely changed since LttP, and in regards to formula my statement holds true. If you wanna be vague and then dive deeper when questioned, feel free, but it won't invalidate the point I made. 

I was one of the few that said OoT is ALTTP 3D, but at least it has something new, like a new overworld and new dungeons.

ALBW has the same overworld, music and dungeons, except the Wind Mansion and the Misery Mine (level 6).

I could make a point about how there's the whole Rental system that completely changes how the Zelda games can be played, and that this small change alone differentiates more than enough from LttP to be considered just a B-tier redo, but I'm gonna leave that point be. There's still no real correlation between Zelda fans and Metroid fans outside of the fact that they're both subsets of Nintendo fans. Zelda fanatics overpurchasing everything Zelda is unrelated to Nintendo's handling of the Metroid franchise. Nothing makes that point clearer than Nintendo making unrequested spinoffs of both Zelda and Metroid coming in the next year. 



You should check out my YouTube channel, The Golden Bolt!  I review all types of video games, both classic and modern, and I also give short flyover reviews of the free games each month on PlayStation Plus to tell you if they're worth downloading.  After all, the games may be free, but your time is valuable!
