Legend of Zelda What Is your favourite Link Design?

[AngryMoblyn1881]

Throughout the history of zelda, Link has had many different appearances (design wise). There are two main reasons for this, 1 graphics in gaming's progression, and a different link in nearly every story, thus making his detailed appearances differ. I am hear making this thread, to find out wich link was (or still is) your fav! So POST POST POST!

Also, you can come hear to disscus PURE link subjectes

 

[Charmander]

Majoras Mask/Oot Young Link, A young link WITH A NORMAL SIZED HEAD!
Greatest link ever IMO

 

[Luigitoilet]

This is a pretty tough one actually.

Wind Waker Link has by far the most personality out of any Link. I might lean towards that version. Plus he's way kawaii :D

I also like the original LoZ Link, and pink-haired LttP Link.

 

[finalark]

Wind Waker Link. Simply because out of all of the Links he was the only one with characterization that went beyond "he has the triforce of courage, okay?" The rest of the Links are just walls.

 

[Clownbot]

His SSB artwork is pretty well-designed, I'd say.

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

I love Toon Link<3 He is so cute, and fierce in Brawl, too. I just wish the DS games were better...

 

[X1-12]

does fierce deity link count?

 

[Spire]

I like the orange hair, the brown sleeves, and the yellow ring on the hat. I'd love for this style to return. It's like a hybrid between OoT/MM and ALttP/LA Link.

 

[AngryMoblyn1881]

wasnt WW link the only link that wasnt actually related to any of the other links before him?

 

[X1-12]

I thought WW link was the only one definately not related... I'm sure i read that in one of the theory threads

Ya thats what I read on zelda universe once, also there is game evidence... well actually he could be related to the other links no that I think of it. But whats the deal with this guy?

dont some ppl say he is a link, or is a distant relative to him?

 

[lanky_gunner]

does fierce deity link count?

If it's not, then it should be.

It's like as if good has completely been taken over by evil bada** incarnate. I would love to see any other incarnation of this form in another Zelda game.

Ignore post. Smashboards crash.

he's supposed to be a relatvie of the guy who teaches you the abilities in TP, because he knows the hurrican slash or soomething, and they TP guy says its from his ancestor, or something like that

Guess I'm a sucker for nostalgia.

 

[rhan]

I've always liked the artwork of Link from SC2. But the OoT YLink and Link are my faves.

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

SC II was so amazing because of him. He was a good character, too. I'm thinking zeldawii's Link has a chance of being my favorite. (Bar Toon Link as I said earlier)

 

[Luigitoilet]

How can you even say? Based on that one, really old and outdated piece of concept art?

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

I said I think, and it's because of the time they're putting into it. TP wasn't all that great, though Link looked alright to me. They have been working on this game forever, that being said there is a good chance he might look amazing.

Of course we all know they're games that are made in 5+ yearspans and still suck, it's just usually they don't.

I didn't mean to make it sound like I knew for sure, but it's just a guess he'll look cool.

 

[Luigitoilet]

well, hopefully you're right.

yeah, I'm very optimistic about this game in general. I think they're gonna get it right again, finally.

and if they don't I'm gonna buy it anyways...*sigh*

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

^ Yeah me too. Thing is, Nintendo has been doing very well. I mean Mario is doing fantastic, Metroid has as well. TP would've been epic on GC (keep that in mind), so I mean they haven't been doing too bad. Most people think Star Fox/F-zero is dead...but I've noticed a pattern in how they make games (which is irrelevant), but I'm optimistic over it too. Unless this game marks the downhill of their gaming for a few years, it looks like they've been putting a lot of effort into their stuff so far.

 

[Spire]

he's supposed to be a relatvie of the guy who teaches you the abilities in TP, because he knows the hurrican slash or soomething, and they TP guy says its from his ancestor, or something like that

But they exist in different timelines. Orca simply teaches you moves, but the Hero's Shade not only teaches you similar moves, but reveals that he is of Link's bloodline. In the Adult Timeline, the Hero of Time's bloodline is non-existant because the Hero of Time is non-existant (physically).

 

[LLDL]

Hero of time link...there is no contest between designs lol.

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

I'm just beating OoT first time now, and he does look really good in OoT. (Both child and adult)

On Ganons castle now and I've liked his design of tunics as well. The colors and shades look so nice<3.

 

[Mr.Freeman]

Wind Waker Link.

Always seemed more expressive than the other Links.

 

[MattV1]

Kind of liking Skyward Link, since he's not as "kiddie", but I get the feeling with the animation-style he'll be more expressive, like TWW Link.

 

[Luigitoilet]

I hate Skyward Link's pants/tights but other than that I like how he looks. Reminds me of the older games for some reason.

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

I liked the baggie pants. I'm pretty chill with skyward link.

 

[Spire]

Skyward Link is now my favorite. I love his design immensely. With the baggy pants and heavy chainmail, he's actually far more realistic than he was in Twilight Princess. Realism does not come in darker textures, it comes in proper weighting.

 

[AngryMoblyn1881]

Lol, big enough? but yes I strongly agree with you on that subject.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Twilight Link, Skyward Link and Fierce Deity Link would have to be my favorite designs of Link.

 

[Mewter]

Wind Waker Link.

 

[TLMSheikant]

MM Link.

10chars

 

[satowolf]

Whoa...toughies. I love the original Link design though.
I also Like Young Link's, ALTTP Link, Seasons/Ages Link and WW Link designs.

 

[MidnightAsaph]

Skyward Sword Link. He can run and jump. What can your guys do?

Nuff said.

 

[TLMSheikant]

Skyward Sword Link. He can run and jump. What can your guys do?

Nuff said.

Mine can do backflips and jump in awesome ways :D. He can also turn into 3 different beings by putting a mask on...he can travel back in time, etc.

 

[Mr.Freeman]

Skyward Sword Link. He can run and jump. What can your guys do?

Nuff said.

 

[Jon Farron]

I like the way Link looks in brawl :D

 

[Shesk]

I found this "Dark Knight" Link and i think they should take this idea because he looks more mature and different
