The person in the picture is Link. Whether it's a guy or girl, we wont know for now. Being both? NO! One or the other. Don't make it confusing. Having a female protagonist is fine. But since he has been a male the whole time (being kissed by Zelda and his sister calling him brother in Wind Waker) you can't say he is both genders.

Link is and always has been MALE!!!!! He has kissed princess's (I don't see samus kissing girl's), He looks like a man in the prophecys, and he looks nothing like a girl in any game besides the newest trailer. And I'm pretty sure the creator said he isn't a girl and he isn't gender neutral cuz he is a boy! He as a character can be played as by both genders, but he is a man. Case closed.

It won't be a unique experience, it will be a weird, controversial, experience that will be mocked by some fans and it will make Other M look like the Mona Lisa.

So just because a Link (remember, different Link in nearly every game) kissed a girl means no girls can ever become Link?

I don't think anyone is suggesting the new Link be a hermaphrodite. I think folks are suggesting that Link's been made androgynous so that the character can be the avatar of both a female or male depending on the player's preference. Basically Link won't necessarily have a cannon gender in this game, it will be left ambiguous intentionally.
Which I'm all for. There's literally no reason why the Hero of Time can't be incarnated as female.
Though to be honest, I don't see Nintendo as progressive enough to even go this route. Their just riding this wave of interest until revealing that Link is male, as always. Which will suck.
Capcom at E3: Guys we're sorry about how we've been treating Mega Man so we're gonna make it up to you by releasing the Mega Man Cancelled Collection with all the titles we cancelled in the condition they we're in just before we pulled the plug. Now who wants Street Fighter X Monster Hunter?

When they haven't gotten to gender equality yet it'll be decades until we get sex equality.
