That looks awesome. It sucks that Zelda is pretty much going to be the only thing Nintendo is showing but I think the game will turn out great enough that I won't really mind.

Zelda Wii U/NX is not the only think Nintendo is showing at E3.

It is the only thing that will be playable on the floor, but not the only thing they will be showing off.

It's not that kind of test.

The size of the pack/amount of stuff being carried is interesting. Hope there isn't any kind of item weight mechanic, though.

What if you play both a boy and a girl Link?!

I doubt it, it looks like your normal visible sword and shield, plus a quiver and that Mysterious Book.

Maybe Link self identifies as a woman and we were wrong to assume Link's pronouns in the first place.

Hereby it is manifest that during the time men live without a common power to keep them all in awe, they are in that condition which is called war; and such a war as is of every man against every man.

I think I'd welcome it if they changed (truth be told, Zelda is far from my favorite gaming franchise, not to say I dislike it, but I wouldn't put it in my top 10) Link to a girl or made the gender an option, but does anyone think that would hurt or help sales?

The main director can walk on out on a brightly lit stage with a megaphone, scream LINK IS A GUY while a giant neon sign in the back flashes that several times and people will still keep at it.

It's already happened with Sheik where some of the guys on the OoT team said "What? Sheik is always a girl!" and people just ignore it because why not. "It's just a couple people on the team saying it not all of them." etc.

Ngl I want the multiple links leak to be false for the sole reason of recreating the massive "no homo" reaction girls had towards Shiek.

I can't wait until they announce that Link is a robot that has no gender in Zelda Wii U.

The new Zelda doesn't have a girl Link. It doesn't have a boy Link. It has THE Link.

If Link is now a girl, the best part of the new game will be Prince Zeldo, the allegedly-magically powerful and wise but really useless young man who is still a prince despite not having a visible parent and being the accepted sovereign of Hyrule. Prince Zeldo spends most of the game hiding from Ganondorf in a church, but is captured immediately after Linkle receives the item that can do Ganondorf in once and for all.

They were kidding about a demo being available. We'll see no gameplay at all 'til Tuesday and the demo is, for now, presumably E3-only.
