I don't limit myself by saying one is better than the other. I love the cel-shaded graphics of Wind Waker. I think they are very crisp and well done. It's a joy to play and look at. Realistic graphics are great, too, when done well. But there is no one that I prefer.
I personally don't really like either one more or less. I think they just need to meet the style the game it trying to portray. Therefore i believe the graphics in WW were just fine for the game.

Same here, the cel-shaded was a nice twist from the same ole' same old'
I thought that the cel-shaded graphics were beautiful. Sometimes it was hard to tell if I was playing a game or watching a cartoon. Now, I think I would have rather had a Zelda with realitic graphics, and that's why I am beyond excited for Zelda 05. However, the cel-shading was exactly what the story in Wind Waker needed. It would have been weird talking to a realistic-looking boat. In many ways, cel-shading was a good break in the series, and it suited the Wind Waker perfectly, but I am foaming at the mouth for realistic graphics.
I really liked the cell shaded graphics. The ultra-stylized look really made the game. That said, now that we've seen it done, I'm ready to see the more realistic graphics of Zelda05.
The graphics are good when Link is a kid, but they wouldn't work well when he is older.AJ_THE_GREAT
(I know this won't happen but, who cares) wouldn't it be cool if someday they do it to when your a kid the graphics are cel-shaded or "kiddy" and when your an adult the graphics are "mature" .

That would be one of the most revolutionary ideas ever. I suppose it could ever be plausible if the two halves of the game were included on different disks. But the development time on that game would be soooo long. It just might be worth it, though.

One of those things that anoy me are what I call (graphXlvers), the ones that say anything but what they like is bad. So, why become something I don't like and just say both:)
I LOVE CEL SHADED GRAPHICS! But when WW first came out i was really disappointed that it had cel shading. it didn't seem right for a zelda game to have them, at first. but now i don't mind it and actually like it alot. i like normal zelda graphics better, though.
The first time I saw some footage of Wind Waker I felt dissapointed, specially after watching the great Space World demo. However, when I played the game I was amazed by the quality of the graphics and the animation. This was a great look and I don't regret the decission they made. Nevertheless I am very excited by the new look in The Legend of Zelda. I like both looks, as long as it is Zelda.
I love cel-shaded graphics, and in my opinion it looks a lot better then the graphics they used on Oot and MM. Believe it or not but I was a little disappointed when I found out the next LoZ was going to be realistic :P.
The cel-shaded graphics were somewhat refreshing in my opinion. Though I'm excited to see the return of the more "realistic" graphics in the next Legend of Zelda, I think it just gave it something special.

I wholeheartedly agree with the original poster, punky424 . I realize that it's just artistic preference, but I can't stand the cell shading. Maybe it's because OoT was the very first game I ever played, but I'm just not a fan of that style. It was really disappointing after loving the graphics in OoT and MM as much as I did (and still do!). That being said, it's no wonder I'm drooling all over myself every time I watch the new trailers.
