Plus 1 for the demo and game comparisons MetaMS. It's pretty exciting seeing how much better the games look than the demos. Hopefully the Wii U will be no exception to that. I can't see it being released for a while, but you never know. Nintendo could surprise us and release Zelda early on in the Wii U's life.
HAHA thanks man. Although im not the one who made this comparison lol. Nintendo must have a new Zelda in the works as they are always working on the next Zelda game. Im really excited for the next zelda game. I really hope they go with a realistic art style!

For their premiere Wii U game, they need to have something as close to the look they gave @ E3 2011 as possible.
After that, though, I'd love to see them experiment again. Quite frankly, I'd find having every Zelda game look like the E3 2011 video from now on would get to be very boring after a couple of games.
What needs to happen is we need to stop thinking of art styles in Zelda as "Realistic" and "Cel-Shaded." While Wind Waker added some still fascinating diversity, it can't be the only alternative.
There are two looks I contemplated a little bit back, and I'd like to know if you think either would work and how.
1. Surrealism
Some of the more famous examples are Persistence of Memory by Dali and L'Ange du Foyeur by Ernst, but surrealism isn't a style that's defined by an appearance but rather its content. It must be an extraordinary view of that which is ordinary.
I found a slideshow on YouTube accompanying Badfinger's "Dear Angie," and it struck me how realistic some of these pictures can look while retaining their sense of fantasy. Other times, a characterized appearance brought out a certain charm. Imagine Epona riding through those woods and disappearing where there is no tree. Imagine that floating planetoid with Hyrule Castle on top. The possibilities are there.
Just take a look and see what I'm talking about.
Again, it doesn't have to look exactly like that either. While this lends itself to the calmer side of a dreamlike atmosphere, they could also take it in a David Lynch direction à la Twin Peaks. If you've never watched the show and are or know someone who is subscribed to Netflix, watch it now. Tell me you wouldn't be interested in seeing Link in weird situations like that. Majora's Mask already handled that Expressionist tone, but I'd like to see them go full-force with it.
2. This one is more akin to cel-shading, but this arts and crafts appearance could lend itself to a very interesting interpretation.
The Electric Bunnies Album Cover
Here's more. I didn't want you all thinking this was the only idea right away, so I put it in a link.
The eyeball plant on the cover could be a Deku Baba. Also, I could see those colored bumps with eyes being Sheikah Stones.
Again, what do you think of these ideas? How could you see them working well in a Zelda game?
I look forward to seeing more from everyone else if they'll take the time to think of some ideas.
I could see this working but not a whole lot. There's no way Nintendo is gonna make an entire game based of this kind of art style. I get the sort of spatial distortion felling from those pictures.
What i could see them doing is putting this kind of style into a certain temple or maybe even another world altogether but i can't see it happening as a full game.
Don't get me wrong it's a great idea but i personally just don't see it happening.

First i want to say that i think it'll be about 2 more years until we see a new Zelda game because if i know Nintendo we won't see another console Zelda for awhile. So my question to you now is what kind of art style would you like this game to have? Personally i would like to see a TP art style as it appealed to me the most and it fits with the Wii U i take it you've all seen the demo.
If not here:
Next thing i want to ask is when should this game take place. I personally think it should be a sequel to Twilight Princess. I would like to know what happened to Midna and the Twili race.
Lastly i would like to show you all a picture. Im not sure if you've noticed this or not but i won't spoil the surprise and tell you about it.
Here's the Picture

#7537 A Nintendo MMO

I for one would really like to see Nintendo's take on the MMO genre and im sure a lot of people here would as well. It would have a large detailed world as well as a large variety of characters and NPC's as well. Nintendo is well known for their amazing characters and gameplay elements as well so the game would be deep in terms of story as well as gameplay.
So what do you think? Should or shouldn't Nintendo make and MMO game for the Wii U or not?
