Oh please let that be so!
That being said, though Wind Waker was indeed a game that had many things new about it, and was far more innovative than Sunshine, it didn't quite have that breathtaking "I've never seen a game like this before!" feel of OOT. Maybe the sequal that the MM guy is working on will do that. It may use the same engine, but I'm sure it can be done. I suspect the next game will involve the quest to find the new Hyrule, and with that in mind, a journey of discovery across an even wider ocean (with some more shortcuts of course) could be done, with HUGE continents to explore rather than just islands. How would it feel totally amazing like never before? I'm not sure... I suspect it'll be adult Link this time, which may allow for new things. Maybe some sort of relationship thing could be done. Perhaps a political side game could play a part, with Link and Zelda having to win over the opinion of the current residents of the new land, or something. However, something kinda similar was done in Ogre Battle, though I'm sure in Zelda it would have a unique twist. I dunno, I'll leave it in the hands of the Majora's Mask genius, though to be honest I have no choice in the matter :D (yet). Despite any of this, only two things are really needed for the new game, even if i does end up just being a basic sequal to WW. It needs a bit more length, and it needs a bit, well maybew a lot, more difficulty.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
