Yeah i agree graphics aren't a good reason to not play the game. I guess I should say the real reason why I didn't play Windwaker is because i don't own a gamecube. If i would have owned one I definitely would have atleast given it a try, and probably in the process would have enjoyed the gameplay and gotten over the whole cartoony look. In all honesty, i actually like a lot of cel-shaded graphics, i remember the WOW factor i had when playing Jet Grind Radio on my dreamcast for the first time. I think the graphics fit the personality of the game perfectly. Also, i loved Dark Cloud 2, and it featured cel-shaded graphics. I don't know why I didn't do the same for windwaker, i've really gotten over it now though. I plan on getting the game once i get my Wii. Maybe when i finally do get my Wii, i'll just get Windwaker and Twilight Princess and have two Zelda games to play through.

Looking back now though, i have to say even if you don't like cel-shaded graphics, quality wise, Windwaker's are incredible. When watching that Zelda retrospect and seeing the game in action i was really impressed, especially by Link's facial expressions. I think people to have to get over the graphics, i mean Link was a Kid in Ocarina too right?

I've heard that the sailing does break up the game a lot though for sure..i've also heard the game is pretty easy. I'm still determined to play it sometime though.
