I have to agree with Gangis on this one. I find it extremely unlikely that I will be able to get even the slightest bit immersed in something that looks like a badly-drawn imitation of the Ranma series (which would be bad enough if it were a perfectly done imitation).
It seems to me that Miyamoto is going the same route that Lucas did with Jar-Jar. Sure, it might draw a few people in who hadn't played the games before, but he's snubbing the loyal fans with this, imho. Especially after the sneak peek we got in the E3(?) gamecube demo that was originally shown. I KNOW it said that some of the games shown might not be made, but I thought that at least Zelda would be released as shown, since it got the second best audience reaction (behind only Metroid).
I had planned on getting a cube as soon as they came out, mainly because Zelda 64 was, in my opinion, one of the most brilliant games ever created (and I've been playing all kinds of games since the Atari 2600). Now, though, I think I'll hold off until Metroid comes out (unless they plan on breeding it with Pokemon to come out with a cheesy version of this, too).
Granted, I may be mistaken, and this may be even better than Zelda 64. And the next version of Windows could concievably be stable, too.
Suffice it to say I'm extremely skeptical.
