Hard to tell but clearly something major happened since they aren't showing shit at e3. Maybe they are finally changing link to female and they are incorporating breast physics for the first time! Or maybe they are finally giving Zelda VA and they need to redo a lot of the dialogue and stuff! Hard to say though


The first of your theories isn't true, I don't believe. Reason 1) It wouldn't take you months/a year to incorporate a different gender and breasts lol but I think you know that. Reason 2) Nintendo want Link to be a male and Zelda to be a female. They aren't going to have Linket save Zelda because they are a very conservative company in a very conservative country that does not support things like homosexuality (or really, sexuality in general) and having a female save another female (and have a strong relationship of some kind) would imply that a little too much for their liking probably. They are a family friendly company and the games THEY make THEY know that the familes expect them to make games that they will find safe for their kids. I'm not saying this is or isn't my opinion (I certainly have thoughts on this, but I'm not sharing them here), but I do believe it is Nintendo's perspective.

The second of your theories I could see happening and taking a huge amount of time.

Well, I was joking about the whole female thing but I don't think the reasons you stated would really be the reasons why Link won't be female (at least not all of them anyway). Cause firstly, they would have to change many aspects of the game in order for a female Link to work like the dialogue for example as well as many aspects of the story provided it is a sudden change. On top of that, I do agree that they don't want any homo and they want it to be family friendly but that doesn't mean that Link can't be female while still making it be family friendly. Zelda can be Link's sister and she got kidnapped by gannondorf (kind of like in WW) or Zelda can be Link's best friend or Zelda can be male and there are tons of ways they can make Link female without going into the non-family-friendly realm. Not saying they will actually make Link female but I don't think its sooooo out there that Nintendo can't do it without affecting their image or the franchise's integrity
