She wouldn't need it. Link needed to disguise himself as a woman. Zelda already is one.

For Link it was a disguise, but they also sell the set at the clothing store in Gerudo Town, so it's probably also something available to women vais as well.

Singular is "vai". It's the in-game Gerudo term for a woman; "voe" is man.

Well, the Gerudo outfit also provides some resistance to the desert heat, so I guess Zelda would have some reason to wear it.

Less of a hassle than downing elixirs now and again.

(Per the talk with Kass in the Daruk segment of the Champion's Ballad quest, NPCs can also use them, even if we never see any of them downing an elixir.)

Good news, Dr. Wright is still in the Link's Awakening remake (Now I hope that Richard and Wart are still in as well);

Also, here's the remake's opening cutscene;

Didn't expect an anime cutscene from Zelda.

It was short mind you, but still.

No way in hell would they cut Wart out of the game, it's the only paycheck he gets outside of Mario Bros. 2.

In Mario, is Wart a native of the dream world and can only appear in dreams? Or is he just a regular guy in the waking world who tried to take over Subcon?

We know Richard is in the game too, though we haven't seen him; Grandpa Ulrira mentioned him in a phone call during the Treehouse demonstration.

Dear Cadence, won't you come out to play? Dear Cadence, meet a brand new day...

I beat Cadence Of Hyrule last Friday. The game says I've played it for over 48 hours but the profile on my switch says I've been playing Cadence Of Hyrule "over 25 hours". Even though Cadence Of Hyrule was more a 3rd party game that Nintendo merely gave their blessing, I still count it as my 18th completed Zelda game. I played Breath Of The Wild on Wii U and passed on the Switch version of Hyrule Warriors so this is the first original Zelda Switch game I completed, though I beat both NES Zelda games on the Switch.

The regular mode was too much for me so I played the easier mode that does not require good rhythm. Even with the easier mode I died quite often. I died many times before realizing I could warp to fairy fountains when I'm low on health. Unlike my usual Zelda playthroughs I'm proud to say I only searched the internet for tips 3 times: one to solve the Lost Woods puzzle and twice in Hyrule Castle.

The game is called Cadence Of Hyrule but for me it was really Zelda Of Hyrule as I never played as Link or Cadence unless it was absolutely required or if I switched by accident. I feared the game would require long periods of play as Cadence so I was glad you can play as Zelda and/or Link early on.

I noticed a lot of Zelda references in Cadence Of Hyule lean toward more older games. I saw no references to Twilight Princess, Skyward Sword or Breath of The Wild. It's a reversal of Hyrule Warriors, which mostly paid homage to 3D Zelda more than classic Zelda. Of course it makes sense that Cadence Of Hyrule favors classic Zelda as the game combines play style from Zelda I with a graphics style that resembles Link To The Past.

If I could have an independent studio make a Zelda game, I'd love a Zelda game from Galaxy Trail. Galaxy Trail made Freedom Planet, my favorite 3rd party game for Wii U.

I played mostly as Zelda too. The Rapier is my favorite of the basic weapon types in Cot N and only Zelda gets to use it in Co H.

@amadeussyracuse Cadence of Hyrule save files will keep counting playtime even if the system is in sleep mode. That's why there's a discrepancy there. I have the same issue: It says I've played that file for 94 hours, even though I've only played the game for about 25.

So, if you were to have a Zelda game with a re-used character design for Link and Zelda (as in similar to how Toon Link and Zelda got re-used a few times), which ones would you go with?

Obviously, Link's BOTW look is a strong contender.

I've always kinda liked Zelda's Ocarina look myself. While not as iconic as the Green Tunic for Link, it was good enough to get at least partially re-used up until SS.

Well, technically, that dress is based off ALTTP Zelda, but she's better known for the blue dress if I recall.

I'm hoping they really make Zelda playable in BOTW so she can get some alternate costumes on her many looks the way Link did with certain Amiibo.

I Still didin't have the opportunity to play Breath of The Wild because of money issues so, I see this : https://zelda.gamepedia.com/Malice

I found the concept of crystalized evil amusing,but the thing remind me of Phazon from Metroid Prime Trilogy.

I Start to think if Link will be able to use Malice with his new arm (certainly BOTW 2 gimmick) like Samus on Prime 3,the thing will be the spiritual sucessor from the magic metter from pre Twilight Princess games and can be upgraded a lot like Stamina.

and Link can end corrupted by it,(first Zelda with a Evil Alternate Ending ?)

Skyward Sword has the best looking version of Zelda in my appearance so her. Spirit Tracks Zelda is a close second.

If Ganondorf ever comes back, I'd like to see a reimagining of Toon Ganondorf in the regular style (so basically a beefy dude with two swords).
