I feel like Link could conceivably have good dialogue.
The different Links do have slight variations in personalities that would give them differences in dialogue and attitude, and it could be interesting.



That said, I do admittedly prefer silent Link.

They could feasibly make it work, but I'd worry that they'd give him really cheesy dialogue. I don't mean 'EXCUUUSE ME PRINCESS' tier stuff or dialogue on the level of the CDI games, more like stuff that you might find in a naff JRPG dub.

Then there's the issue of Link's accent: people have played Zelda games for years and might imagine him speaking in a particular way, so it could be very jarring to some for him to have a completely different accent.

Yeah, I think we're just good with Link's yells. Nobuyuki Hiyama (his OoT voice actor) has made it work very well, although that's not surprising for his standards. Anything Link could say will become a meme, I think.

Will Ferrell or Trey Parker could do Snake. Snake's voice in general is pretty easily replicated.

I don't care who it is, but I want someone voiced by Shellby Rabara (voice of Peridot in Steven Universe). Viridi might work well for that.

I think a talking Link could be done well if you get a good VA (like Yuri Lowenthal) and had a good script (basically anything written outside of Japan)

Personally I'd throw in Crispin Freeman as Captain Falcon, Michelle Ruff as Zero Suit Samus, Stephanie Sheh as Peach, Bryce Papenbrook as Fox, Kira Buckland as Zelda, Tara Platt as Sheik, and Alexis Tipton for Lucina, but other than that solid lineup

I figured Zelda and Shiek should have the same VA. Same for Samus and Zero Suit Samus. I'm not familiar with a lot of the others you mentioned though.


Oh, that's because most of them do mostly anime. That explains why I do't recognize them.

Crispin's known for, most recently, Winston from Overwatch, but the voice I imagined for him for Falcon is more along the lines of his Regal Bryant (Tales of Symphonia) voice.

Maybe if F-Zero gets a reprise he could also do Blood Falcon in his Albedo (Xenosaga) voice
