WW got a lot of backlash when it was announced, TP didn't. It got the most epic reception in the franchise. Aonuma wanted to create a sequel to WW, but was told to change the artstyle because a more realistic approach would sell more. And it did.


That was years ago. WW is well recieved now, and TP is universally looked at as a game that aged terribly. TP didn't sell more because it was realistic - it sold more because it was on two platforms, one of which was the massively successful Wii at the beginning of its massive fad.

WW is one of the worst selling 3D Zelda games. Together with its uglier cousin Skyward Sword. Metroid Prime 3 was on the massively succesful Wii, but didn't sell more than Prime 1... Userbase says little with core franchises like these.
