You mean that console with "inferior tech" that had everyone picking their jaws up off the floor after this E3? (And the NX should be even more powerful.)

 

Nobody was picking their jaws up off the floor" after seeing the new Zelda. Well, unless you mean the already sold biased fanboys who don't know any better.

Majority of people were impressed and hyped because of what the game was aiming for, and for the route the franchise was taking. It wasn't because of any visual spectacle of technical achievements of any kind. If it wasn't a Zelda title, nobody would have reacted the way they did. But because it is a Zelda title, and because it's finally evolving passed the comfort zone it was sitting on since 1997, people are praising the direction it is taking. 


Spoiler alert: Don't take any of what I said as negative. I've been a diehard Zelda fan since 1987. And can't wait to play this new game. I've been asking for a return to source for like 3+ titles now (WW aslmost fooled me xD). Saying Nintendo should return to the open/exploration oriented/non hand-holding formula of the original. And it seems like BotW is finally aiming for that. 

Post above also applies to you.
