For the record, I deeply dislike Wind Waker's art style. For me, Twilight Princess looks better, aesthetically anyway. 

As for WWHD, even disregarding resolution, which is still a pretty big differentiator at 480p vs 1080p, I reckon it still looks massively different from the GC original courtesy of its new lighting model and the redone textures.


Haha, i dislike it too.

Sure, WW HD looks different. But at the same time WW GC without all those changes but in HD also looks good. And often not that much different. I'd really say that TP HD would've benefited more from an overhaul as big as Wind Wakers, even if it keeps the low poly meshes.

In that we are agreed. Updating the lighting model from DX7 level to DX10/11 level would have greatly improved the overall look.

Still, I get the sense that this is a rather modestly budgeted production, without the investment required to heavily rework the graphics. Nintendo might also have Tantalus on a very short leash as far as changing the original designs.
