Heathens!

Here's hoping BotW is Wind Waker on land.

Why would you want that?? Thats a massive step backwards from what the trailers have already shown.

I liked both WW and TP. Wouldn't mind BotW taking inspiration from both.

This is interesting new info on the change from another Wind Waker to Twilight Princess. I thought a major reason was because to the lackluster sales in the West due to the audience not liking the cartoony art style, which pushed towards a more realistic Zelda game, to appeal to the western audience. That's what I heard some time ago.

The Wind Waker is my favourite, but I'm glad we got Twilight Princess (hard to top the best :p)

but really, it's nice to see variations and different styles

WW is the more timeless game although for the franchise TP was a good decision.

I loved Twilight Princess.

Good, diversity is better.

I thought we already knew this, or at least that Twilight Princess started out as a Wind Waker sequel. The horse part I don't think I heard before. I agree that would have been weird to have in WW style. Anyway since Twilight Princess is better, and sold way more (and a WW2 on GC would have sold even less than the original WW as well probably), the right decision was made. Besides, WW actually did end up getting a sequel; Phantom Hourglass, I don't see why they'd forget that one.

As a sidenote I do want that book, february it is then.
