I don't think that Zelda work with a selectable gender, but I'm not apposed to link just being female. After all, according to Zelda lore, Link, Zelda and Ganon are reincarnated with most installments. Who said link had to be a man with every incarnation? In fact, let's take it one step further and try making link a different species, or come from a different background.

Whenever one of these studies comes up to see what percent of gamers are women, usually the results are the same. Whether it's trying to see how many women play lots of video games, or trying to see how many women own a console, the answer is usually slightly more than men. So why is it so hard for you to believe that 50 percent of gamers are women?

Reasons I believe that there are equal parts men and women gamers:
1) There's a difference between "Gamer" as just someone who play's games and "Gamer" as identity.
2) Most search engines and social media sites actively and algorithmically push people to others that are just like them.
3) Several female gamers try to hide their gamer identites because of sexual harassment.

@atomicjuicer @Nintend0ro It wasn't THAT bad. It had some high points and some low points.
HIGH POINTS (for me, anyway):
Star Fox Zero
Zelda: Triforce Heroes
Metroid Prime: Federation Force
Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam
LOW POINTS (Again, just my opinions):
Yokai Watch
No Zelda U
No Amiibo restocking, More amiibo support
