Actually, he probably could. But why would he? In all their tiny bits of chemistry, she's never acted ONCE like she liked him ROMANTICALLY. Neither he her. For Malon, anything associated with her communicated shelter, gentleness, and yes, a teasing love of Link. Zelda was always shoving Link towards his destiny, and things associated with her were wreathed in despair. Zelda is a friend. Malon...well, she's an unsolved mystery. I'd go with Malon, definitely. Her or nobody. But a Zelda + Link in OoT is totally implausible.
If Link married Zelda in OoT it would make him famous in Hyrule (Since he would become King of Hyrule and all...). This would create a problem with TWW where the King is still looking for the Hero of Time. That is why I say that it is improbable that they marry in OoT.
About Link and Zelda's romance in OoT... Are you sure you want to get into that? I can show you some "evidence" if you want to.
As for Malon. No matter how much you like her, Link still doesn't show ANY feelings towards her. Yes, Malon loves Link. But we know that Ruto does as well. And maybe Saria... (I'm not mentioning Zelda yet) So that doesn't mean anything.

Is it? TP has not yet arrived in stores and it takes place (yay) DURING THAT TIME PERIOD. I think we're going to get our answers very soon. Maybe Link showed up and was never remembered because he didn't save Hyrule in the traditional way. As we all know...he sunk it.
Ah, yes. TP might very well be the flood (I hope so), but TWW still says that the Hero did not appear. Therefore the box contradicts the game.

The "legend" in WW also portrays Ganon as a pig-monster, something Link in WW, (look at his expression,) was rather surprised to learn was not true. And the Triforce was upside down, called a "Golden Power" by even the most knowledgable, and "Triumph Forks," by even the most reputable. The legend in WW is NOT 100% accurate. After all no one knows what happened to Hyrule, (in the legend,) so a lot of their stuff is off.

All the Link's are related, due to in game evidence - ALttP says that the legendary hero is always of the kinghts bloodline. This doesn't mean they're necessarily descended from each other, but they do at least have common ancestors.
Link and Marin. Forever.

They both look Hyrulian and old but not all that similar. Having said that, who knows, maybe the Sage Rauru was one part of the Royal family the same way Zelda is a Sage and part of the Royal family.Well, look at it this way. According to your logic, this guy is related to this guy. I doubt that for some reason...
Quote
I've never had a dream where the love interest was my family, no. This is really going off topic though. There is an interview with Miyamoto about Marin that you might be interested in as it explains a lot about her. I can't remember where it is, but the point was that Marin was the dream equivalent of Zelda.So you are saying that you have never had a strange dream featuring your family? We know that some of the things in LA are from Link's dream, his uncle could be one of them. But it doesn't matter anyway. Marin's connection to Zelda is obvious since she both looks and sounds like her (the game says so). That is what I care about in this debate.
Quote
But that's not just a contradction of the box. If you look at one of the quotes in aLttP game it says that someone from the knights bloodline will come when the royal family is in trouble. Hence, it seems to me that there was a Link in WW BS but he didn't succeed in saving Hyrule from being flooded - in fact it's possible that he helped in getting the Goddesses to flood it in the first place.That is a serious contradiction.
Husse said
Malon and Talon were actually based on Marin and Tarin from LA. Tarin seems to be based on Links Uncle from aLttP, and Links Uncle has some similar characteristics to Mario. I think Ingo was added for comical effect to make the Easter Egg more clear.Wow. You're right. O.O
So...If Mario and Luigi were the gags behind Talon and Ingo...what's Tarin n' Link's uncle?
Quote
My point was that by process of elimination it seems Malon is the best choice for Link (due to many of the ladies ending up as sages and being of incompatable backgrounds). Hence, I pick Malon from the start. The fact that Malons father looks a lot like Links Uncle in the future could be an added tribute to aLttP - who knows. As I said before, it's just a thought and not a concrete proof.Now wait a minute. Alttp was made with NO inclination to such a complicated theory. Matter of fact, OoT wasn't even concieved at the time. Even if the two look similar, that has nothing to do with Link and Malon. I think they should be together too, based on personality, but there's nothing to support it in this weird idea of yourn.
Quote
The aLttP box also suggests LoZ comes after aLttP so there's no problem with trusting boxes. You can't decide to trust manuals and not boxes - If I'm not mistaken, they are written by the same people.Yup. Don't trust the boxes. Most people believe LoZ came after Alttp nowadays anyway.

Add to that the potentially apocryphal (look it up if you don't know what it means) report I read somewhere that in the original ending to OOT Link and Malon rode away into the sunset on Epona.
WHAT?! O.O WHERE?!

Well, they also both look like the Old Man from LoZ... And so does Sahasrahla. Nintendo just like to re-use characters.

The latest translation of the Japanese version of ALttP only says that Link came because of the "Great Catastrope". It never says that the Hero appears every time danger treathens the Royal Family. Besides, TWW still says different.

And the fact that this hypothetical scene was replaced with the scene where Link goes to meet Zelda doesn't indicate anything to you?

Nintendo still didn't have any plot reason to put it there. In fact, Zelda herself said that they had to say god-bye "when peace returns to Hyrule". But Link apparently wanted to be with her since he went there anyway, and stayed with her until MM started.not really . . . it is, after all, just a repeat of the same thing happening earlier on in the game . . .
Quote
and I believe it would've worked if they'd inserted the scene after the party before the scene with zelda in the clouds (Or have I got the order wrong . . . I can't remember the it right now)
It would go against the entire point of OoT's ending (that Link returned in time). And Nintendo chose to not put it there for a reason.

What I meant was that Link and Malon would ride off before link went back in time, then zelda would send him back in time, and, like Husse said,show that he went to live at hyrule castle/town afterwards. I mean, he became basically the foremost knight of Hyrule, so to me it would make sense that he and zelda would continue to be friends.
HAH yah noob, this rumour just started out by some person who photoshopped the whole idea!
There is actually an article saying that the beta version did had a kissing scene of Link and Zelda. And that was stated by "Ocarina of time special issue" You can download the comic at other magazines.
then another thing is..
this was shown in an article of how akira himekawa how they make the manga in progress.
step 1. basically, eiji and his staff get
together and look over the story they have and develope
side characters, a stronger plot and such
2. They do a first sketch with simple doodles
but the main point is to get the story down
3. they call the others at a university to
gether people and get their idea's through. Sometimes they
come up with more ideas, which make it interesting. But the
point in this is to get the idea's of the artwork across
4. basically, they get the big "ok" from nintendo
and begin to draw the sketches for the actual thing.
5. they ink the sketches. Their drawings are
sent to proffessionals that do the inking... and its quite
hard to learn, so it says.
So it's easy to say Nintendo prefers LinkxZelda if you noticed that too in the manga.
Plus they are the cutest couple since TLOZ.

Secondly, Talon and Mario aren't in the same 'universe' so to speak.
Mohammed Ali

Wrong again, Mr Clay.

Heh, maybe they are in the same universe. The Mario posters are up in Hyrule Castle because he's a Hyrulian legend. That's why Lakitus and such can be seen in Zelda games.
God, that would suck. D'you think Nintendo would ever go down that route? The whole Tingle RPG thing's got me sufficiently paranoid...

that was... interesting. i'll have to go see if i can do that in my MM.
wasn't there another gossip stone which said that link is just malon's type? there are a number of hints at LinkxMalon, and relatively few for LinkxZelda- i personally believe that nintendo was trying to pull away from that, for that one game at least.
Personally, i voted for Anju and Kafei. Call me an idiot, but i think there's something very touching about their situation, and their endings. The reason we never see Adult Kafei is that a N64 playermodel takes about 2 days to make, and another 3/4 day to skin, or so i've been told. This depends on the modeller (it takes a while to make lowpoly models, as i know from hard expirience. 3Dmax is spoiling people), but MM was under severe time constraints.
