I'm black too and sometimes I have wondered why there are no black characters in Nintendo games but it's not like I cared that much.
EDIT: Omg the comments on that petition... lol

I wouldnt have a problem with Link being black, but being a woman just doesn't make sense, is 'she' going to save Prince Zelda? LOL

yeah that's true they could make more black characters the only human ones at least close to being black I remember are Flavia and Basilio from Fire Emblem Awakening, it's not like that would actually change the quality of the games and in the present days it won't generate needless polemic at all since it's proven that the skin pigments of a person aren't important, so I'm all for it.
it's like that story about link's gender, female Link? I'm all for it. genderless Link that will make critics and parents try to destroy Nintendo? give up on this idea until society becomes more accepting.

nah, it was already screwed when some power hungry fools decided to create the atomic bomb
or rather thousands of years before the atomic bomb when some idiots started the first war.

Internet is like TV: something with a huge potential for education and positive things, that ends up being used for advertising, dumb shows and sex/violence. Internet looks worse because anyone can contribute to its bigotry.

Personally, I love how when I ignore anything I just google it and I find the answer.

I will comment in this thread, never being able to find it again.

I actually think having a female Link would be a pretty cool change of pace. If they're apparently changing up the formula why not change Link's sex as well?

Link should be changed to a 70-year old black female. I mean Nintendo really lacks some old playable characters.

But we just got Cranky Kong on February! It is hard to think in an older looking character.
