Aonuma: "realistic" Zelda gets a better response than a cartoony one

Spinning already? Doesn't matter. The head already admitted. Whatever you want to spin is not official, like his words. Realistic has a better response.

"Everyone has been imitating this (snaps fingers) (laughs). I was told by many people that it was ‘beautiful.’"

Aonuma says a lot of things. People love unrealistic, and Aonuma knows it.

And more people love realistic, as he said in that video.

Here is the part that I think you are having a hard time with: Response does not equal sales.

People react well to seeing a realistic looking trailer.  Doesn't mean that they line up and buy the game.  You can call it spin if you want, but install base certainly is a factor when dealing with sales.

That's why OoT sold more than 7M in less than a third of the Wii installbase. Right? Oh, what a casualty, OoT is also considered realistic. Why don't you go to Nintendo and tell them how wrong they are?
