I knew Zelda was dead, but I also switched from N64 to PS2 because the GCN lineup was trash

I felt like I was being trolled when comparing it to the Gamecube tech demo. But once the shock wore off I was impressed with how it basically looked like a playable cartoon.

If you saw Melee and didn't immediately buy a Cube you were never a real Nintendo fan

I would shit talk it on forums and irc, but once I actually played it (when it was discounted to 20 dollars) I enjoyed it more than the previous zelda games. I didn't even mind the sailing.

The console war shit at forums were silly. Kids would call WW kiddy and then play Kingdom Hearts

I was pissed off. Then later I played the game and enjoyed it for the most part in spite of its lowered difficulty coming from Majora's Mask.
I wish Nintendo haven't nerfed Zelda games' difficulty. Twilight Princess also suffered from this if you compare it to the base challenge of Ocarina of Time.

I like the brown sleeves better. The change was last minute too. It doesn't really make sense for link to wear his tunic over an exact same color undershirt

I remember liking the aesthetic itself fine but not how overly cartoony the choreography in the trailer was, the moblins doing that Looney Tunes run-over-a-pit and tread on air before looking down and falling, corny as shit

Couldn't believe they were serious. This was the first time I laid eyes on it and I couldn't process what I was seeing.

The fact I grew to actually adore this art style and think it's amazing is quite a testament.

Also, as this article alludes to, this was what people saw back at the 2000 Spaceworld show. It was quite a difference from the expectations they set.

Absolutely not. There was an actual difference between the consoles back then.

Damn, they even made fun of CD-I Link back then too.
Did any prehistoric poops existed too? I mean, if Space Ghost CTC can happen, so should it.

I didn't keep up with gaming media back then. I was just a kid who thought the box looked interesting and bought it as my first Zelda. I don't think it imprinted onto me in the way OoT would have for older gamers, but the game is still burned onto my soul.

i was surprised and disappointed, but the gameplay still looked like zelda and i was a big zeldafag so i picked it up on release and really, really enjoyed it.

I defended it, insisting graphics don't matter (we didn't call it art style at the time.) but that the story and gameplay matters the most.
Then the game came out and I stopped talking about wind waker until a decade later when I played it again and realized how everything in the game was wrong, the artwork is unfinished and looks like crap, and the gameplay and story are trash.

Younger me couldn't accept this possibility.
