Why is a stupid fashion based zelda game Canon? Has Nintendo gone mad?

The fashion thing doesn't bother me at all but what really makes me mad its that damn multiplayer thing. I can't play a Zelda game with other people my friends won't buy it even if they do we work different hours, thats why I'm not buying it.

You do know there's single player right? There's also download and play. If you got 2 friends next to you with 3DS's but they don't own the game, they can still play using your copy. I'm not entirely sure the restrictions, but it says you can play all levels through download and play.

Who cares what games are/aren't cannon? If it doesn't have an effect on future games then it doesn't matter. The four swords games are also cannon and have a fair amount of zelda mythology tied to them due to minish cap. This game is really only tangentially linked (sorry) so it's even less a part of the timeline. I swear that the internet has collectively forgotten that the four swords games exist.
