People who had their first experience with Zelda from Breath of The Wild and got hooked (Or at least liked the game and may or may not have wanted to try more), are probably looking for Breath of the Wild type games, such as Skyrim.
These fans have most likely only played BoTW, or maybe a couple older ones like Twilight Princess and Wind Waker. This is good, as they are getting a pretty good mix of open, linear, and other things too.
However most of them probably never made their way over to the Original, the Oracle games, or even Minish Cap, most likely, meaning they only know a little bit of Zelda, and none of the 2d titles.
Fans nowadays expect open world games like BoTW that are so massive that they would take hours just because that's how long it takes to walk to the final boss from the start (hyperbole). When newer (And most likely younger) fans of the series see that the next Zelda game is 2d, I am worried about how they will react.
I mean, if a trailer for Oracle of Ages came on today and I had only ever played BoTW, I'd be like: "Yeah, no".
This gets me worried.
Newer and younger fans, in my opinion, wouldn't appreciate what 2d Zelda has to offer without being eased into the idea of a 2d Zelda first, like after first playing SS, OoT, TP, and MM, and liking them enough to take a plunge into the older and less their type games.
Do you feel like newer Zelda fans who learned of Zelda (Or started liking Zelda) through BoTW would actually care about a 2d Switch Zelda title?
