Sounds like Link will remain silent in Zelda Wii U

It's actually blowing my mind just how many people are blatantly misreading what is being said here.

Well, I read the quote that used the words "hear Link's voice.". Which strongly implies an audio meaning.  However, my confusion and reasoning still stands.  Why would people beg for him to speak?  What group is asking for this?  90% of Zelda fans I've seen go crazy if you so much as hint at Link speaking or the game getting VA.  So what group is asking for this again that is significant enough to be addressed d?

 Call me crazy, but I highly doubt that the 90% of Zelda fans you've seen react negatively are, in actuality, 90% of all Zelda fans. 

Oh I'm not saying my experience is 100% representative.  Just that I've never seen much to go against that.  I wouldn't blow a gasket myself either way.  But I just don't see the point.  Link doesn't often have much distinct personality except for Wind Waker and Skyward Sword.  He's usually just the player's link to the world, hence the name.  

Shoot, even that excellently done fan dub of Skyward Sword doesn't have Link speak until the very very end.  So yeah, Link speaking in text or voice doesn't seem to be in high demand.  Even less so then VA actually, I'd warrant.

 

Disclaimer:  I've not played and/or watched every Zelda so keep that in mind.
