Awesome. Hopefully both the Wind Waker and Twilight Princess camps can agree that this looks beautiful.
nintendo definitively won E3
(albeit most of their stuff was 3DS awesomeness instead of wii awesomeness but you dont hear me complaining)
thats too bad, since i really wanted to see some last guardian action, one of the most boring E3 ive seen, that is of course my humble opinion
the zelda shenanigans looks good though, but the world is too bloody picturesque for my taste

I love the look! The cell shading effect on the more realistic visuals of Twilight Princess really give this a look that I guess I've always kind of associated with the world of Hyrule. It just feels right to me.
With regard to the controls, I didn't see the presentation, but perhaps this is why the title is getting pushed back to next year. I would be shocked if Miyamoto allowed this to be released if it wasn't practically perfect.

Saw it this morning via LiveStream, and yes, the new mix between TP and WW in terms of art style is absolutely amazing. Technical issues aside, gameplay looks incredible, and the music sounded pretty good, too. In short, I expect another incredible installment in my favorite game series of all time.
I just wish we got more details on the story, since I'm really curious about that.

I'm surprised so many of you are liking this new aethstetic. I'm kind of disappointed so far. If you were to put in a different model for Link, this wouldn't look ANYthing like a Zelda game.. and that's bad in my book. Add in the Wii Motion controls and idk kind of sketchy.
Well, I love Zelda, one of my favorite franchises of ALL TIME. I was kind of hoping for something a tad different-but not to say this isn't awesome, i know it is!!!!!!!! Also, someone mentined the 3ds- this version they are putting out, (NOTE: because it is guaranteed as the day is long Nintendo puts out a new ds/game device every year or less) only has ONE analog stick! Yuck, i want two, two! I am hoping the new PSP in the near future goes w/ two!
Looks a lot like Twilight Princess in terms of the visuals. That's not necessarily a bad thing but I was hoping for something a little different.
Weirdly enough I wasn't as impressed with this game, maybe I need to see more? I mean if I had a wii i'd get it but still...
Looks great, though I kind of miss the darker look of Twilight Princess. This look (more colorful) is definitely more appropriate for the franchise, but there was something kind of badass about TP's aesthetic. Anyway, looking forward to finding out about the "gimmick" (Ocarina, Wind Waker, Wolf Form, etc) that sets this one apart from the other games and how the story (aside from the Gannondorf/Triforce business) factors in.
am i the only one who doesnt think the artstyle is that great?
i mean, it just looks dull from my point of view

I absolutely love ZELDA as a franchise, but I gotta be honest, there is nothing in there that really excited me. It looks like it's trying to capitalize on the controller for the Wii rather than the game itself. And if there is even a little bit of inconsistency or lag then the whole game will be a waste.
Also the enemies and graphics look worse than Z:TP, man sorry to be a downer I want to be pumped for this, but I just feel underwhelmed.

I'm really not sure how I feel about this. I mean, I really dug the visual style during the CGI (?) shots of Link, but the gameplay itself just looked incredibly bland.
Like someone above me said, if it weren't for looking at Link's back the whole time, I would have never known it was a Zelda game. And had this been a trailer for a non-Zelda game, I have a feeling not many people in here would be excited at all after that trailer...
Just my opinion, of course.

Well said, that's what I was getting at.

i just got a hot tip about the story: Gannon wants the triforce so he can turn the world all evil. you have to stop him by collecting sage-y wisdom-y crap and some items along the way. then some blah, blah, blah... boss battles, and save Zelda. Bam, story over.
oh yes, i am pretty excited. they seem to be going for much more action this time around, and with motion+ it should turn out great. people need to realise that this will all be with M+
Personally I'm glade they went for mostly ingame stuff rather then all the CGI rubbish so many companies are coming out with... instead of what the actual game is about
but thats just me, I prefer to judge games via deeper depth rather then just 'looks bland'

I'm really excited for this game especially when hands-on impressions make it clear that the controls do work fine. It was unfortunate that the infared devices from people in the audience ended up confusing MotionPlus during Miyamoto's live demo.
I really like the art style and its resemblance to The Wind Waker. By the way, peole should know that unlike in the past, Nintendo decided to reverse development order with Skyward Sword by crafting the game design first before the graphics and cut scenes.Obviously, they need more time to polish the visuals and complete the cut scenes.

Looks like someone combined Twilight Princess with cartoon graphics.
Which makes this Ocarina of Time 3, and...honestly, I've played Ocarina of Time a lot. I need something that won't feel stale in here. The wolf sections helped Twilight Princess, but...I'm not seeing an equivalent yet.

@Hiltz -
"crafting the game design first before the graphics and cut scenes.Obviously, they need more time to polish the visuals and complete the cut scenes."
That lines up with the cut scenes vs. game play mechanic visual difference. I really really hope your right, because it would be disappointing if thats not the case.

I think the game looks great. Also, all we saw was a five minute demo and trailer. A bit too early to decry that its the same old crap when we haven't seen all that much. That might be a fault of Nintendo for not seeing more info, but its a bit too early to say it will fail to bring more diversity to the series.
Who knows, maybe Link will be able to transform into a bird in this one,because there had to be a reason they showed him jumping off a cliff and the sword and the sky are tied together here.i
I've never been a huge Zelda fan, I haven't beaten any of them (although I'm close in Link to the Past on GBA and Ocarina of Time on the Gamecube) and I've hardly even touched Wind Waker or Twilight Princess. Still, I can't help but feel this could be the game that changes my mind about the series.
Matthew Blevins; Your eyes must be failing you because these graphics look great. It was a pretty smart idea to mix both the toon and the realistic from Windwaker and Twilight Princess. Still, Link's face looks a tad awkward. And the on-stage demo got me a bit nervous. I'm hoping it really was just interference or the sensor bar was badly placed.
Oh hey new Zelda. You seem to look exactly like the last Zelda except with more unnecessary waggle controls. Fun
Are those controls ALWAYS going to be shown on-screen? Because, man. I can see that getting annoying.
I was really hoping for a follow on to TP, but I agree that this look is just perfect for the series.
Well done Nintendo, well done.
