The fact that it took everything it made Zelda so great and throw it from the window? (let's be honest, Zelda games started doing it aa early as ALttP, but it has become worse and worse). The fact it abuses fanservice in a very negative tone (unlike Smash whose mere existence comes from fanservice and it does it in a very lighthearted, fun way)? The fact it abuses DLC? The fact it relies on cool, action moments that are basically alien to Zelda? The fact its gameplay is a mere button masher, unlike early Zelda games were positioning and timing was still relevant? The fact it's just a Warriors gane but with a Zelda skin? The fact the female villain, who is in danger to have a sudden wardrove malfunction at any moment, is not even allowed to have an honest lust for power?
And no, don't say it's a mere spinoff. Hyrule Warriors, as a game, has no good reason to exist. It was made because they could made it. Nothing like early Zelda, or classic and modern Mario, where there's some incentive and creativeness and sincere intentions behind.
And while it's too early to speak about Metroid Soccer's quality as a game, again, I repeat, Youtube people are hating it with burning passion. And you cannot acuse Youtubers from being alternative gamers who are critical to modern Nintendo's practises. Yet they (and many communities) are very vocal against Metroid Soccer. Somethink to think about.
It's not supposed to play anything like a Zelda game. It's supposed to play like a Dynasty Warriors game. If you're judging it as a Zelda game, throw that idea out the window and play it again. I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "it abuses fanservice in a very negative tone", as I wasn't aware that fanservice could be positive or negative. Also, it's existence DOES come from fanservice, so the Smash Bros comparison doesn't really work. I'm also not entirely certain you even played the game at all, since a significant portion of Cia's character development is that she wants to obtain the triforce (and thus, does have a lust for power). The reason this game exists is to give fans of the Dynasty Warriors franchise a taste of Zelda, and vice versa.
Also, you seem to have missed my point about "Metroid Soccer", as you keep calling it; The people criticizing it know basically nothing about it other than that it exists. They haven't played it, and they certainly didn't develop it, so them saying that it's terrible is about as informed of a statement as me saying that it's the greatest game to grace mankind with it's presence.

It's definitely a shame we didn't get that many surprises here, but I think people are just throwing way too much hate Nintendo's way here. Everyone needs to just step back and look at the games for... well... their gameplay. I think a lot of them look fun even if they weren't my expectations.
