They were good. and I think that Nintendo could have used the same engine for the next Zelda game. But then again, the new graphics is what I have wanted for the last four years.

This is only my opinion but i didn't feel satisfied when i finished Wind Waker for the first time, it just didn't feel right as the final boss was a bit too simple, even majoras mask boss was one tough cookie without the aid of the Fierce diety's mask, but this it just just a matter of timing when to press the A button. There wasn't anything special in my opinion about the game at all that made it better than OoT at all.

You can probably take it as a complete backtrack after the cel-shaded backlash of the first game. People saw the Spaceworld 1000 demo, said wow, then got hit with a glorified cartoon.

Not that it's really any of my business, but I thought that the cel-shaded graphics of The Wind Waker were top quality and the animation second to none ;)

Guy's got a point.

Shigsy did say it was "Wind Waker 2", because he was saying how Nintendo hadn't lied that Wind Waker 2 was in the works, they just didn't tell how graphically different it was to be to keep the suprise in store for E3. He also stated that he wanted the toon-shading (rather than cel-shading, people) for WW because it reflected Link's youth. And now he's in his teens, this new style is going to reflect this. Read into that what you will, but both things hint at it being a sequel.

Although the world is completely different. And Nintendo aren't saying anything for certain.

I've already been scrutinized for this statement so keep it to yourself okay.

Okay i'm not going to say anything else that might be scrutinized by any of you except this. If you can remember at the end of Ocarina of Time Link had given Princess Zelda back the Ocarina of time in that odd scene where they were flying through the air sort of thing and Zelda used the ocarina of time to send link back down to the Hyrule temple for link to put the master sword back into the pedastal for one last time. Which he did and then the 7 years that he was spent inside the Dimension with the 6th sage never happened and he was a kid again, and the last scene was where he went into the Hyrule Palace garden to once again meet Zelda looking into the throne room of the castle through the eyes of a 7 year kid....

So he wasn't grown up at the end of ocarina of time, and if you had bothered to play and take note of the age link must have been in majoras mask (as this WAS set after ocarina of time) he could not have been 17 years old. There.

For me the story is irrelevant.

Who knows what his actual age was.
For this game being a sequel to WW, Gamespot have this to conclude:

"The game won't be called The Wind Waker 2 when it's completed, and it won't be a sequel to the last GameCube Zelda game"

They got that from the Zelda Rountable at E3

If Link's meant to be 16-years-old, and this game's set AFTER Ocarina of Time, how does that work when, as I remember, Link was at least 17 in that game by the time he'd grown-up...?
