Um, heard of a little game called Ocarina of Time? Miyamoto is consistent.
I'm not going to praise him more than he deserves. I thought Majora's Mask wasn't worth the price of a new game, and there's probably more games of his making that weren't all that for me. When he announced that the Wind Waker would be cel-shaded instead of the highly detailed 3D of which video material had been shown online, I thought he'd gone insane like everyone else. But Miyamoto has balls and he has a heart for games and gamers. That's why, even though the Wind Waker can't beat Ocarina of Time for epicness (is that a word?), it's still a great game.
The reason why the basic legend of Zelda keeps working is because it's just a very basic version of most existing legends. Hero, villain, princess and world in need of saving.
