I thought the graphics used in TP where okay. And I like the graphics being used in SS. But I can't choose which one I like better since I like both equally.

Ugh. I prefer the graphics from TP. I really liked the gloomy vibe and it was easy for me to find the beauty in it. I realize that's not the case for everyone and maybe the brighter feel will allow us to paint our own picture like it did in OoT. It's all kinda relative to each individual. But honestly I don't like the cartoon vibe as much for a handful of reasons. 1- because most of us our adults or older kids that play these games, with exceptions of course. So I don't like feeling like I'm playing a game marketed towards toddlers. I'm 19, and its weird when my girlfriend thinks I spend hours playing a video game for little kids haha but that's my own complex I suppose. 2-being the fact that I was in paradise when my lifetime favorite game came out with the TP graphics that felt like it captured the world of Zelda just how I had imagined. So I'm kinda sad cause I was hoping they'd improve and expand on that. Hopefully these new graphics will be to a lot of u guys what TPs were to me. I understand that a lot of people say it's not about graphics but when u have grown up playing Zelda u immerse yourself into this world and dream up what it all looks like and when TP hit my dreams spot on I didn't have to imagine anymore. It was like going from the original top down Zeldas to OoT, but even better. So in my opinion graphics may be just as important as the gameplay and story line when it comes to the zelda series, not for realistic purposes, but just for the overall effectiveness in capturing the world as we all like to imagine it. Tho thats a losing battle since its once again all so relative. With all that said, and some left unsaid to spare us all the time, I think the SS graphics are most likely much more suiting to this story and particular world. I'm really excited for this game and hope it's a huge success. Hope I at least had some valid points to offer.
I agree with Phantom Zelda, TP was a lot darker and SS is more cartoony and bright.
