Looks way more similar to Wind Waker to me.

About the only similarity to OoT (or any previous Zelda game) I see is that Link swings a sword, blocks with a shield, locks on to targets, shoots projectiles, and auto-jumps in a three dimensional environment. I haven't seen any enemies that look similar to the ones in OoT or any previous game, nor does their "style" (whatever that means) remind me of OoT. Meanwhile, we don't know if this game takes place in Hyrule or what this land in the sky has to do with anything. We don't know if there are seven dungeons with fire, water, forest etc. themes. We don't know if he rides any animals or vehicles around (although I did see something that looks like Pegasus Boots). We don't know if the plot has anything to do with Ganon (ok, yeah, I'm pretty sure he's in the game, but we don't know it yet). For all we know, Zelda might become a playable character. And there might be an actual town with an economy going on much like in Majora's Mask. They've been working on this for four years. I hardly think they spent all that time just to make Wii Motion Plus controls and cel shading.
