I remember this feeling setting in about half-way through The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. I was so burned out on the Zelda formula that I had to slog to the end of Twilight Princess and skipped Skyward Sword altogether. I don't know if the formula itself that got stale or how it was executed. Could traditional AAA Zelda (remakes, smaller projects not withstanding) have continued beyond Skyward Sword or was that formula a dead end?
I think traditional Zelda peaked with Majora's Mask but if Wind Waker had been properly finished and followed up with a true sequel I'd be all aboard a continued Trad Zelda timeline. Twilight Princess is exactly where The Legend of Zelda lost its magic for me.
