Overlording the Underworld
That's not regrettable though. Cake eating is at 25 and up, if I recall. There's nothing bad about a 25 year old Princess Zelda.
Try the age 30 MILF Princess Zelda, then come back.
Untrustworthy
70 year old Zelda.
Just because.

Well, with the amount of time travel shenanigans in the series...
Or the Skull Hammer.

Think I'd be interesting/there'd be a good use for a spear or other type of pole-arm as an item?
You'll never see it coming.
Gungnir? GUNGNIR!
Dual-wielding with a sword and spear!

You're saying Link should be a Nord?

Or maybe just a Nerd.

No, that's Shad.

Shad's a Viking?
You'll never see it coming.
A Germanic Viking.

I'm sure Link would like the opportunity to wear a new hat.
Heck, I would have loved to have seen him with a beret like Karane had in SS...

Okay, they might be able to get away with bearded viking Link, but changing the hat would lead to Ruined Forever.

Link wears a green sock on his head! That's his standard, and it's mandatory! Where else would he keep all his stuff!?

And Link always has one bottle of hooch on his person at all times.

I wonder if Link's Awakening was going to be another game entirely. The numerous cameos and easter eggs from other games make me think that it wasn't originally planned as a Zelda game.

I dunno. Nothing would seem to suggest it's a Dolled-Up Installment aside from it being a Spiritual Successor to For The Frog The Bell Tolls. The game clearly notes that it follows up from ALttP, so my guess is that all of the other stuff was just slipped in there because of the nature of the game.

Also, when a series got a Gameboy version, it could turn out pretty weird.
Considering that Mario is surreal already, that's saying something.
Responsible adult
Yeah, that was just the time when Game Boy games were weird.
Besides, considering that the actual gameplay was pure Zelda in every way, they would have had to do a heck of a lot of re-jiggering if it started out as something else.

Not all games are doped in handhelds. Metroid II was pretty sober. It even added several new elements to the Metroid series.
I may be wrong, but LA was directed by Takashi Tezuka. Even before Majora's Mask, Miyamoto hadn't directed all Zelda games.

older zeldas, for the cake eaters!
edit: why is it that whenever i say something i may regret later on it ends up being a page topper?
