They make Zelda for Zelda fans, and the true fans don't refuse to play Zelda because of the graphics.

I know they didn't make the graphics to impress people, but i wish they did. Obviously everybody already has their favorite Zelda game, but if Nintendo wants to make newer games that appeal to everyone, then they should try totally different styles in many aspects of the game for each new installment. I'm not saying that they aren't planning on doing that but I think it would be best. I just can't stand how it looks like Link's big eyes are just glued to a round flesh-colored ball. i hate cell shading. The new Turtles game coming out is cell shaded too. It's a great concept but I know right now that I just won't be able to play it because of the cell shading.

The graphics are a work of art, but the rest of the game just left me unsatisfied. It was nowhere near to Ocarina of Time or A Link to the Past. But the Nintendo Gallery was a cool idea, but the reward for completeing it was pretty worthless.

You didn't WHAT!! NOT EVEN AGAINST THE 3RD BOSS?? wow.

Ocarina's graphics were great - for Ocarina.

Wind Waker's graphical style is a perfect fit with Wind Waker's story. And my oh my, what an amazing story.

You've never played ocarina.

Actually, the graphics are quite realistic. There's blur on the sea to mark distance. When the wind blows, the grass and trees sway. After you come out of the water, you drip. The facial expressions are awesome. The movements are so fluid it's like watching the real thing. Just proves that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover.
But that's me. I'm Nintendo biased.

Wind Waker is the best Zelda game, besides Ocarina of Time. It was soooo good! I love the Nintendo Gallery. I've got a figure of Ganondorf.

YOur nintendo biased? welcome to the club!!!

I didn't die playing OoT or the one for GB, Link's Awakening.

Anyway it seems that 3D games tend to be a bit easier for some reason. Nothing in the series compares in difficulty to the first Zelda.

Really? Maybe its because you played it on GB. Every video game thats been converted into GB happens to be easier.

IP finished Windwaker The day before yesterday.

It's my experience that every "old school" video game with "new school" sequels or additions tends to progressively get easier and easier.

To all those who complain about Link being a little baby boy, that is crazy. Wahahahahaaaaa oi oi oi lalala oooo AHH!!! Crazy! Link was 10 in Wind Waker. Same age as child link in Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask. I too though, would of liked a more realistic style in the game, but still, it is classic Zelda, and draws me back to the snes days of Link to the Past.

Ah, link to the past. Great game. And I agree with you. You know what I think?

Amazing, amazing game. So much fun, and so full of life and colour and imagination. Maybe not quite EarthBound-amazing, but I'm only partway through it, so who knows?

It's astounding how video games have evolved into a medium by which people can tell great stories - and make them look so good, too. Of all the games that are out for the next-generation consoles nowadays, Wind Waker is the one we'll remember in ten years. Kind of like how I still play Super Mario World when IP is at UA.
