So Zelda was fine the way it was back in the 80's, right? Nintendo released Adventures of Link anyway. It was fine the way it was then, too, right? Nintendo released A Link to the Past anyway. Zelda was fine the way it was then, wasn't it? Nintendo released Ocarina of Time anyway. Surely Zelda was fine the way it was then, no? Nintendo released Wind Waker anyway.
You guys have to face facts- Nintendo constantly reinvents the Zelda series. It's one of the main reasons it's my favorite videogame franchise of all time, because Nintendo is constantly offering new perspectives on it. There is no RIGHT style. I'd rather Nintendo experiment with a new style than have them make cel-shaded installments for the rest of the series's lifespan. I wish YOU guys would stop claiming to know what Miyamoto wants with the series, and what the correct style for it is. Just shut up already, we're tired of hearing it. If Nintendo sees the benefit in making a darker Zelda, great for them! Games don't have to be dark and mature to be good, but that doesn't mean a good game can't be dark and mature. Get over it.
