Ocarina of Time style. The first 3D Zelda game were the best in style, because they had a 'Fantastic Realism' style. It didn't look too real, but it was believable enough. It's the perfect style for Zelda.

I'd be happy with anything other than Twilight Princess. It has less appeal to me than Ocarina of Time, Wind Waker and Skyward Sword, in terms of art style.

Trophy Cards are classy too! LOLZIGZAGOON

I think the Wii U Zelda tech demo really shows the perfect style for the franchise.
If you try to fail and succeed, which have you done?

Meh, Art style for the WiiU Zelda game doesn't really matter to me just as long as I can recognize who is who. I'm not holding my breathe either that the Zelda tech demo is what the WiiU zelda is going to look like. There is a good chance it will be just like that Spaceworld demo to just show off what the WiiU can do. Since every 3D Home console Zelda has had it's own art style (Besides Majora's mask), It will most likely be something completely different.

I really like the art style on the Wii U demo because it's detailed but it's still stylistic. It has the nice water reflections, detailed textures and detailed character/object models while still having a kind of fantasy feeling, and the "gothic" style goes really well with it. All in all that demo is a thing of beauty, it's how I wanted next-gen gaming to be.

I hated the graphics style of Wind Waker. I would not object to a Skyward Sword style. I loved wind waker the game, hated wind waker the art style. That really should have been reserved for a different game altogether (considering wii u specs). Hope they the keep the actual graphics they actually showed in the trailer.

didnt aonuma say he wanted zelda wii u to really take advantage of the system's power? the best way to do that would be to use the E3 demo's art style, i doubt they won't use it, i know he said it's not definite but its likely they will come to that conclusion :)

also he said the art style has to suite the game style. i expect the next zelda will have maybe a stronger emphasis on magic since thats one thing that has never been done to its full potential in a 3D zelda game. a zelda which has a lot more use of magic would suite the twilight princess art style perfectly i think, just another reason to go for that art style (if im right that is) :D

Hey I don't care if it's a LoZ game then I don't think that people play it for the graphics we just play them because the storyline and gameplay is exelent! So I really don't care what art style it is in.

this is nintendo we are talking about here. i swear sometimes it seems they do opposite of what fans want just to piss us off. i wouldn't be surprised if they went with another art-style... but i would be extremely pissed!

i would be surprised, they said they want the next zelda to really take advantage of the new system's graphical capabilities. sure that can be done with any art style but no art style is better to do that with than tp, and they know that, thats why they showed it off as an example. i would be extremely surprised if zelda wii u didnt look like the "experience" shown at E3 :D

well I could care less what art style they use. It is a Zelda game and that is good enough for me. But preferably something like the one at the tec demo.

I like his TP Style. He looks best in this game and it, to me, feels like the right style for Link.

How about photo-realistic Link?
