But what about the non-Link playable characters in the new 3DS game?

evilore drunk thread ?

Or someone got hacked lol

 

[Wavebossa]

You don't need female Link,
you already have Zelda.

Perhaps the next game could have a playable Zelda character
Zelda's daughter with link?

Link cant get Zelda pregnant... Link's a girl.

Does anyone read the OP anymore?

EDIT: Now Sheik on the other hand... that's a real man's man. He could give Zelda the business!

doesn't count

Spoiler

because link isn't a girl

Read the OP sir

But seriously that PR is so bad haha

 

[Moff]

link can stay male

I just want a sheik game. adventurer by night, politician/princess by day

 

[HiroTSK5]

Man the 3DS can't get a break. Metroid Prime: Federation Force has a negative following, Fire Emblem Fates has more Waifu stuff that's pushing people away, Nintendo's stance on Triforce Heroes isn't making anyone happy, at this point I'm expecting an article a week from now to say that the NFC reader that's supposed to come out around AC: Happy Home Designer wipes your 3DS' SD card or something.

Here's hoping we at least get Linkle in Hyrule Warriors 3DS

 

[Kater]

That's not a pillow, Link, that's a cats backside.

 

[Alo0oy]

I'm fine with making every male character have a female option.

or the opposite

Maybe as an extra post-game unlockable.

 

[FUNKNOWN iXi]

Would a female Link be sexist and generally more offensive to fans, regardless of gender? We have Zelda/Sheik and Impa, so why not use established female characters for a new game instead of turning a character many wouldn't consider a blank avatar into one?

 

[E_Darkness]

Read the OP sir

But seriously that PR is so bad haha

fuck

I forgot link was a girl now

 

[Jotamide]

OK, this got a chuckle out of me.

 

[Saint Gregory]

Adjust your 1950s-era PR statements and internal development memos as appropriate. Print new editions of your ultra-important half page long Legend of Zelda lore pamphlets.

All your Links are girls.

All of them, from her landmark NES game onward. Thanks for understanding, Nintendo.

Sigh, trying to use powers meant only for @taylorswift13 I see. I'll pray for you...

 

[liliththepale]

Zelda is an action-adventure, not an RPG.


You've already seen them but, for completeness, there ya go.

Are you telling me that this isn't a Roll Playing Game?

 

[Wavebossa]

Are you telling me that this isn't a Roll Playing Game?

LMAO

I laughed too hard...

Now everyone at work knows i'm not working...

thanks alot liliththepale

I don't get this! Link IS a blank avatar. You can rename the character to your name! Link was designed to be THE LINK to the player. Link is the definition of a blank avatar lol.

 

[Rizzi]

But Link is a boy though.

 

[Neiteio]

OMG, haha, this is just fantastic

 

[morpix]

Not anymore she ain't. GAF has spoken.

Totally forgot about Sheik

Yeah that would work!

 

[-Horizon-]

Somewhat unrelated but: Am I correct in that this completely random "what if link was a girl" entire silly 'movement' started because of a photoshopped image that made the rounds on message boards a year or so back.


I love the internet, but people are fucking crazy sometimes.

No, I actually thought Link was a girl from the Zelda U trailer in the direct, not the one someone posted in the thread here. The design screamed anime girl warrior design to me. Guess Aonuma played me like a fiddle.

 

[Wavebossa]

This EviLore knows his stuff, he should open a community focused gaming site.

Spoiler

rule34 got you covered

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Lol I'm typing on a phone, seriously though female link is a dumb idea and I'm not a part of this we.

Just joshing ya..

lol..hilarious.

 

[QueenOfThorns]

Link cant get Zelda pregnant... Link's a girl.

Link is a trans girl. Boom.

 

[Kriken]

I don't get this! Link IS a blank avatar. You can rename the character to your name! Link was designed to be THE LINK to the player. Link is the definition of a blank avatar lol.

 

[Pandy]

I look forward to the inevitable 'Kratos a girl' and 'Master Chief is a girl' threads.

 

[Alo0oy]

Link is a trans girl. Boom.

I hope that happens just for the meltdown.

 

[Übermatik]

Are you telling me that this isn't a Roll Playing Game?

God damnit lilith! I'm stealing this...

 

[Wavebossa]

/dead

Spoiler

He really looks like her

 

[Ahnez]

This thread is only getting better and better lol

 

[ZSaberLink]

Artwise, it's really easy to switch the gender in the Zelda series. And it does not even have to be sexualized in a creepy way...

That's pretty adorable . No idea why EvilLore just made this topic though, but I guess he can do what he wants lol.

 

[Alo0oy]

I look forward to the inevitable 'Kratos a girl' and 'Master Chief is a girl' threads.

Make that thread for maximum hilarity.

 

[Kriken]

I read this wrong at first and assumed it was supposed to mock Dark Souls, that's pretty clever

 

[Wavebossa]

Link is a trans girl. Boom.

For some reason I feel like this would explain alot...

 

[BGBW]

Here's hoping we at least get Linkle in Hyrule Warriors 3DS

I want Pinkle.

 

[jmizzal]

haha great thread Female Link it is

 

[-Horizon-]

I hope they put idols in Zelda U and make Link(fe) the lead just to create a second Dead Sea on the planet.

 

[Azure J]

link can stay male

I just want a sheik game. adventurer by night, politician/princess by day

I want (in this order):

- A Queen Zelda game when she just says fuck the rules and runs around giving imperial decrees with her fists. I blame Hyrule Warriors' incarnation for this.

- A Shiek/Impa stealth/character action hybrid.

- A Midna and the Twili RTS. Because why the fuck not. :lol

 

[The Giant]

I don't mind a gender swap for games. but I do hate it, if the idea is forced on people. Just because their is an outcry for it.

 

[KefkaPalazzo]

Please, Link is about as much of a girl as Samus.

 

[Pro from Dover]

Boobies!

 

[FunkyDealer]

As long as we agree to make her left-handed again.

 

[mrpeabody]

As long as they don't mess with Tingle, I'm cool.

Where does your love of samurai fit into this

Why are female character forced on people but male characters are the default choice?

 

[Megidolaon]

I look forward to the inevitable 'Kratos a girl' and 'Master Chief is a girl' threads.

Well, they're not reincarnated in every new game.

Link is kinda unique as far as Protagonists go. It could be like the Legend of Korra where the Spirit of the triforce picks a new host and it just so happens to be a girl?

 

[QueenOfThorns]

For some reason I feel like this would explain alot...

It's pretty much canon. Just need to wait for the official word.

 

[Mass Effect]

I'd be okay with this.

 

[Robotguy]

Boobies!

RIP in Peace.
