Would you be okay with a gender swapped Link?

E3 has come and gone again and although there wasn't much to celebrate this year, that was last year, there was one thing that got me mega excited.



OMFG LEGEND OF ZELDA!!!!!!!!!

As most of you have already heard, there was a lot of talk amongst fans though about this trailer. Link was looking awfully feminine. A member of Nintendo quickly shot the idea of Link being female, confirming that he was in fact male. But that got me thinking, what if Link was a girl this time. A lot of people used to think Samus was a boy, why couldn't we see a gender swapped Link.

Honestly, Nintendo will probably never do this. Nintendo doesn't like to bring about controversy. However The Legend of Zelda series is filled with kick ass women. In fact, out of the 4 confirmed characters for Hyrule Warrior, the Zelda game being made by the people behind Dynasty Warriors,  three of them are women.

Zelda, Midna and Impa.

I think a lot of people have thought about the possibility of a Zelda game staring Zelda, we don't count the CDI games though. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if we saw Zelda games featuring multiple playable protagonists. What do you think though? Would you be interested to see a gender swapped Link? What other game characters would you be interested in seeing gender swapped. Leave a comment in the section and make sure to share with your friend!
