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.

Plus he's got colored skin! It's a double dose!

the we need Granny Kong that will settle this matter! XD
though it's the fur that's colored not the skin.... >.>

Well, general feminists want both genders to be equal. So, any gender has the same worth, and there is no right or wrong.
So much for "general feminism"
These people try to enforce a sex change, which does say, that the gender IS important to them, so completely against the original goal of feminism.

If you ask me, the gender is probably the most unimportant aspect of "Link". Hes a silent protagonist, wears foreign clothes etc. So, what would actually change should HE be a SHE ? Nothing really, just that people would adress link differently.
And to the usual "damsel in distress" thingy: Zelda gets kidnapped because she is royal AND not a fighter. Look at tetra, one of the Zelda incarnations who actually knew how to defend herself and did so pretty well.

So again, play zelda, get link captured. Whats the difference ? Nothing really.

Yeah, Pretty f*cking outrageous that nintendo didn't opt to make Link black. I'm white and I'm completely insulted. MLK HAD A DREAM NINTENDO, OR DID YOU NOT GET THAT MEMO? God, they're so racist.

Blue blue.

Pretty sure this is a joke.

Not like I would be opposed to it though, just not for Link.

I dunno really.

I'll post my friend code once I have a better team ready for Pokemon X, for battling.

No, it was the same, the stupidity and bigotry was just less noticeable since people didn't have a semi-anonymous platform to spew it from.

Nicki Minaj in a Zelda game? I'll totally buy it!

I would sell myself into slavery at Nintendo's corporation if I could play as Queen Minaj, my rap idol, in a Zelda game.

... I... uh.... wow.... I'm not even sure what to think about this.

My SD Card with the game on it is just as physical as your cartridge with the game on it.
I love Nintendo, that's why I criticize them so harshly.
