i do, but that style seems much more appropriate for a sci-fi space-faring game than it would be for something like zelda lol

actually, this may be my worst one of them all

[spoiler]it pains me to admit that i was one of those ers who was abhorred by wind waker's art style when i first became aware of it, i specifically remember thinking it had "worse graphics (artistically) than ocarina of time"

thankfully it grew on me in time, it's easily the prettiest 3d zelda and the only 3d zelda game that virtually hasn't age at all while all the others even as recent as twilight princess look like garbed super fx-era messes today[/spoiler]

i think games like a link to the past aged very well...but i dunno, well-done 16 bit still just looks very appealing to me, and a link to the past is a very colorful and visually interesting game

agreed, that's why i made sure to exclude the 2d games from my complaint about zelda games aging poorly lol

the only 2d zeldas that have aged badly are the very first two imo, while alttp/ooa/oos/mc will always look great

If you think about it from the Atari to the SNES they were working on getting 2D right, and it ended with the SNES being the best 2D arguably. Now the 3D generation, N64 - Wii are like the earlier consoles to the SNES. My point is your only gonna enjoy the realistic zelda graphics as they come, and once they're time has past....well then they look bad, like how the NES Zelda is crap to ALttP. I think WW and SS both are amazing looking games, but I also think they achieved that by avoiding realism. I need to play TP again, but I think that was an awesome looking game too, just dark.
