Now that the Phantom Hourglass has rendered the celshaded era, do you think the console versions of Zelda will follow the Twilight Princess design from now on? Additionally, Twilight Princess was designed for the Gamecube, so will the graphics of the next Zelda game be that much better on the Wii?

Depends on which link they use. If they use kid link, Celshaded graphics definitely. If they use adult link...then more "photorealistic" graphics. however, both links are as equally badass.

I've never been a fan of the cel-shaded Zelda graphics and I also hated the Wind Waker. I like the Phantom Hour Glass but I still prefer the more realistic look that they do with Ocarina of Twilight Princess.

TP is hardly more realistic looking. Its just a different kind of cartoon.

I do enjoy the WW look, but I think the next Zelda will follow TP style. And yes, I'd imagine the graphics to be much better since it'll be coming out about midway or towards the end of the Wii's life.

I definately hope that they make Link the realistic version. I didn't have a gamecube so missed out Wind Waker (even though I contemplating buying it now, since backwards compatibility) but if I had one I would have been WTF?! I definately find the realistic Link much more appealing.

It will be interesting to see what Nintendo can do with the Zelda graphics on Wii, as you said TP was designed for Gamecube, and I though the graphics were good when I first got it. I don't think that the graphics will be as good as Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicals: Crystal Bearers (I writ the whole name cause I felt like it) but Square- Enix rocks at graphics so it is unfair. But anyway this should definately be the indicater for what Nintendo can do with the system, and what we can expect from future games.

I would prefer the TP style because WW and PH made the legend of Zelda seem like it was some kids adventure and less like an epic adventure. Although I liked it I would much prefer TP style though, also a while ago like near the start of 07 on an GamePro article it said that Nintendo would like to do another darker Zelda game. But I not sure if it was true now but yeah thought ya might want to know.
