Why? oh why? How could Nintendo do this to their faithful gamers!

Yes, I have been a fan of Ninty ever since the SNES. And their style and brand of their games has never failed to please and amaze me. But this!! Have you seen the way they've mutilated poor link for the new Zelda game for Gamecube? He's ended up looking like a monkey! It's not rehashing using realistic graphics, they would have been better off sticking with that format instead of the new one. My best friend who is mad about Zelda is very upset. The landscape looks like a child drew it!

We REALLY hope that the game plays a lot better than it looks!

i think link looks cool. plus its easyer to do better graphics with cell shading than normal 3d. and, zelda has always been about gameplay.

Skull Kid nice name please be aware the mags have not played it as it was shown in Video form..

Also the game will look a lot better than that yes it will be cell shaded but that was poor cel shaded the game will be more detailed as that is a really early form of the game.

As for the new look it = new ideas, new styles, comedy, easier to make, MY MOST EXCITED GC TITLE (until they announce Conker)

I'm also for the new look! I found Majora's Mask to be too similar to Ocarina of Time, and although it had great originality in it's storyline, it felt like I had played that game before.

So well done Nintendo! Show them that cartoony looks don't neccesarily make a game solely aimed for kids (Let me just remind you of a certain Jak and Daxter that has been released for the PS2).

It probably does have a lot to do with userbase... but I just want to read some reviews and play the game.

I like the new cel-shaded Link. The graphics are appealing.
