i think they should use the split timeline as a marketing advantage. realease WW's timeline on the hand helds with the cartoon graphics and release TP's timeline on the main console.

I think that cel-shading has had its moment. Make way for realism!

That's an interesting idea... I like it.

If you think about it, they're already going down that path: FS, tMC, and PH have been using the Toon Link version (all portable), while the latest Adult Link was in TP (home console).

Since PH was technically that last Zelda game to come out (2007), you may have to wait awhile for another portable Zelda game.

I hate the idea of confining the prettier style to the weak system with a tiny screen.
I can't wait for an epic new cell-shaded adventure for the main console (whatever it may be at the time it's released).

i agree with both the opinions people have put out here, so im not sure which i would rather see,

the DS dosent do tWW style cel-shading graphics any justice

But the DS does realism even less justice.

Back in E3 2007 Eiji Aonuma said he's thinking about Toon Link on portable and realism on console. I think that's a pretty smooth move. The DS is doing WAAAAAAY better than any of the consoles...ever. So don't call it a weak system. Japan lives off of the DS and keeping Zelda on it is a really smart move.

no no thats not what i was saying, sorry

im just saying that i would like to see Toon Link on another console game, not take zelda off ds completely

I meant weak as in hardware weak. It can't do the beautiful Wind Waker graphics. And nobody said put realism on the DS, just "I want a new console Celda." The styles don't need to be exclusively console or handheld, is all.

I don't think Eiji would be ready to make another Cel shaded console game after Wind Waker was shunned by the American audience. Our feedback is the reason they canceled TWW2 so they could make TP. When the DS came out they saw it as a good opportunity to continue TWW's storyline. After PH Aonuma felt that Toon Link and the portable go hand and hand. If they make another console Toon Zelda they risk getting bad sales. Sad but true.

I have nothing against WW and PH, they're both great games, but enough is enough, how would you like it if they kept on making games with Oot graphics? It's okay to have a sequal graphically, Oot-MM, Lttp-LA, WW-PH, etc. but Nintendo should make something new and improved.

I think Zelda Wii will have the same graphics as TP but they won't reuse NPCs. (except link)

infact the DS is such a popular system that the next dragon quest game is goona be a DS exclusive.

Not graphics, artistic direction.

As far as a Celda style goes, I think that it really oughta be on the wii. The reason being is totally for myself. I prefer TWW to TP anyday, and believe that Nintendo ought to make a third installment to close off all (or atleast most) loose ends. In the end having people start populating a new world and such.

Also, it would fit pretty well with Nintendo's target demographic because of the less intimdating art design, but at the same time it would give us a sequel to an amazing story, and if it did its predecessor justice, we'd have an all around hit.

The other route Nintendo can take is sticking a TP sequel on the Wii. This would do well because of the fanbase that (for some reason) loves TP. I don't get what's so great about the realistic art style. Every freakin game out there is realistic. IT'S BORING! Sure it was refreshing to see it after a slew of Celda games but still, Celda is the way to go.

It's like eating a big desert. You have to take a drink to refresh yourself and get the taste out of your mouth but then when you eat the desert again it's that much sweeter.

Overall, I'm happy with whichever direction nintendo takes.

...You mean dessert? Heh. Sorry, I usually don't correct people but when I read that I invisioned someone eating sand...so. xD

What wouldn't be a bad idea to me is if Zelda went back and forth doing both cel shaded and realistic games. It would really give every fanboy group a chance to get what they want. It always scares me when I think that Zelda is going to go off in a certain direction and never look back. When TWW, FS/FSA and TMC came out I thought to myself...okay give Toon Link a rest and do something else, TP gave me hope that Nintendo is still listening to us.

yeah... dessert desert whatever.

I think the Wiis grafic power should not be squandered on texturless cartoons. Leave the Celdas do the DS, since it can't produce good realistic images anyway.

I liked the style of TP, very realistic!!

The DS can do some damn fine "realistic" graphics, actually. There was some war-based action game, Call of Duty I think, that's videos blew me away with it's high-poly graphics, not to mention Metroid Prime Hunters (which I actually own).
