It's bizarre what Nintendo is conservative about vs what they CONSTANTLY try to change. They always want to come up with new controls and controllers, but they are relatively stagnant in all other aspects. |
It doesn´t fit with the characters and the overarching storyline, which makes sense. The stories are about the hero (not heroine) of time who was chosen by the godess Hylia and whose incarnations basically continue the first cycle. A female version of Link doesn´t make sense in this context which is why he said that including Zelda as a playable character would be easier for them.
Zelda´s in the possession of the Triforce of Wisdom and Link is in the possession of the Triforce of Courage. How do you make it work if the game is about the heros courage overcoming the power(literally the Triforce of Power) of evil?
A spinoff or separate title would make much more sense but trying to shoehorn it into 30 years of backstory/lore just doesn´t work.
