I never had any complaints about previous Zelda games' graphics. I wasn't sure I would like the Windwakers graphics until after I tested out the game - and I was blown away; until I bought it, that is. I played through and beat the game, and it was pathetically easy. I went through entire dungeons without so much losing a single piece of a heart - even beating the bosses for the first time. And then what happened with the whole Triforce fork thing? It was horribly lame.
I don't think that we need to worry about graphics in this upcoming Zelda game - they've always fit in good so for. What we need to worry about is whether or not they can make us want to keep playing it. And the way we accomplish this is by leaving out incredibly lame quests like the Triforce forks and giving it a reasonably difficulty level - I began to wonder if the game had been tested at all!
If they can grasp my interest in this upcoming game, then we have no need to fear the graphics...
