Probably something to do with the bunny?
That's my guess. Why couldn't the bunny just be yellow, though?shadyspace said:Probably something to do with the bunny?

True.rasberryjam said:Pink is cool.
I don't think this is quite it - SNES had a nice golden color available, but the palette for Link's sprite doesn't use it for whatever reason.Shed_a_Ninja said:The NES and SNES would have some strange color pallettes.

Deadbeat said:I always thought the liner of his hat was the pink part. Explains why the rest of his hair was okay.

His boots were brown though.Eusis said:They had 256 colors to use and the closest one was pink.
Hmm, looking closely at this image you can see that Link already has a lot of golden brown shadow around his face. I guess pink was chosen so that his hair would stand out more against his skin.Chet Rippo said:

Well clearly it was pink hair and brown boots, or brown hair and pink boots. And pink boots are even harder to take seriously.Chet Rippo said:http://i.imgur.com/WYHYD.jpg ?

EDIT: I always figured it had something to do with making it easier to tell what was what within the sprite. Similar to the way Mario got his moustache.
