I found that argument it be a complete failure. MM, TWW and OoX were all amazing games, I enjoyed the latter 2 and have just started playing the first and I love it already, it's so beautifully sombre and dark.

Another person to have a pop at cel-shading. I'm sorry but it's people like you who really rile me. A game is NOT a ****ty kids game just because it's graphics give you that impression. I found TWW to be an amazingly fun game, much more things to do on it and the boat feature was really fun, exploring the sea and stuff.

And OoT being the peak is completely subjective. I know that many people don't have it as their favorite Zelda game and that's because just because of it's commercial success doesn't mean it was the best.
