That's not saying much as WW was widely ridiculed after its reveal due to its art style.
Zelda U is a hyped game among the Nintendo hardcore like you and me, but in terms of the industry as a whole, its hype level is relatively low. Most gamers are far more excited about the likes of Uncharted 4, Final Fantasy 15, FF7 Remake, etc, and don't give a hoot about a cartoon game on a platform they don't care about, especially one that has bugger all shown of it.

True, but later after people actually played game become one of the most loved Zelda game and ended up with sale of 4.5m on small GC instal base, and today people think that WW art style and game itself are great.
No, game isnt hype only among Nintendo hardcore fans, its hyped among regular Nintendo fans too. And like I wrote those who are not very hyped (Nintendo and Zelda fans are very hyped), are very aware of Zelda U game.

Nintendo fans aren't that big a group any more, as evidenced by Wii U's sales. Why restrict Zelda's appeal to a limited audience when you could reach a broader audience by taking the series back to the style of its most popular entries? It's just bad business to handicap one of your key franchises that way.

Again, OoT sold so much beacuse was probably best game ever (MM with similar art style is worst selling Zelda), while TP sold beacuse was launch title on best selling Nintendo console ever, and we have WW sold 4.5m on instal base of 22m, so realistic art style isnt reason why those games have that sales.
