1986: ok
2018: OH NO HE'S HOT
FRRRR
my heart exploded at 17:56
This is link sometimes he’s young sometimes he’s hot sometimes toon sometimes he’s not but he’s always
HYAA
BotW Link is the sexiest Link.
OOT Link is hot
For me the 3 greatest links are
1. Twilight princess
2. Breath of the wild
3. Ocarina of time
YAS TWILIGHT IS NUMBER ONE 😍
YES YES UR ME YES
esos ters tengo yo
COPYRIGHTERRR😂😂😂
Majora's Mask, YO!
This just reminds me of how much I wish I could play Twilight Princess blind again...
Malicious Raven I wish I could play TP for the first time :(
I haven’t played it yet but I’m gonna after I finish oot and windwaker
Right. Was such a breath of fresh air
Oof i have the game but i havent come any further then the first dungeon
I guess I can always use Dolphin xd
poor thing has been fighting monsters for years!
There is more than one link. He gets reincarnated over time. And there is also more than one Zelda. They both get reincarnated. And you can tell because they all have a different look or hairstyle/color varying from Orange to yellow and the same goes with Zelda. The botw Zelda was much more weaker and insecure than her past incarnations
Jamaru Peri I think every Zelda fan knows that. It was clearly a joke lmao
@@itsbreadmydude not every Zelda fan knows that... Only the die hard fans know that.
Jamaru Peri I’ve been playing Zelda for 16 years, I knew it wasn’t the same link just by playing it unless it was OoT/MM games. Everybody I’ve talked about Zelda with knows it’s not the same link😂 its legit just common sense tbh
@@jamaruperi5715 Weaker? Wtf
Nintendo fans: So how many versions of Link are there?
Nintendo: YES
thevioletskull true XD
Let’s see, it may be innacurate cause I’m bad at timeline, but
SS link
MC link
FS link
Oot/MM link
Adult:
WW/PH link
ST link
Child:
TP link
FSA link
Fallen:
LTTP/LA/OA&OA(I think) link
ALBW/TFH link
LoZ/AOL link
Long list, 11 links I’m pretty sure
@@AcidArrestB OA&OA
You mean OOS&OOA
@@arek.k8688 yes
the Zelda universe have a evolution in Hyrule landscapes. there is an entire Link generation
My name is Link! I'm not Zelda.
내이름은링크 nice to meet you link not zelda
내이름은링크 형이 왜 여기서나와..?
내이름은링크 어디든잇네요없는곳어디임ㅋㅋㅋ
그래서 초록색 녀석이 젤다죠?
내이름은링크 잠만 이분
Zelda is probably one of the best Nintendo game franchise (in my opinion) each game has such a great story even if theres lack of story. The music is just beautiful. It's almost movie like. Seeing an offical Zelda movie would just be heaven
Who gets triggered when people mistake Link for Zelda? Like Samus as Metroid or Pit as Icarus
Same
I can see why people would see Pit as Icarus. It works. They’re both angels. But it still triggers me. Same with the other ones.
I will admit that when I was a little one, I asked my older brother if Falco was Captain Falcon’s sidekick. I was very naive.
@@lilbuzzyboi9949 Icarus is not an angel. In greek mythology he actually was Daedalus' son who was the architect for Minotaur's maze and was locked inside a tower with his son due to the maze's failure. In order to escape the tower, both of them built artificial wings made out of feathers and wax, but Icarus flew too close to the sun which made the wax melt and Icarus fell down in the ocean and died (something similar happened with Pit in the ending of Kid Icarus 2: Of Myths and Monsters)
Eh, we've all called him Zelda at one point. XD
My favorite link games
Twilight princess
Skyward sword
Breath of the wild and Ocarina of time
Like if you all have the same as me.
I enjoyed Skyward Sword more, but played Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess the most often. Breath of the Wild, as expected, had the most playtime in general though. I'd say:
Skyward Sword
Breath of the Wild
Twilight Princess
Ocarina of Time
I'd include Wind Waker in there too, prob after Twilight Princess.
I love OOT!
Oh, thank you!
so basically all the major 3d games
yes
I think its kind of cool how Smash Bros. Ultimate will now have, when you think about it, a Link for each 3 timelines of the Zelda universe:
BoTW Link= Hero defeated
Toon= Adult Era
Young Link= Child Era (MM)
Well...i dont wanna get technical and theory on you but...botws placement is pretty flimsy and isn't really concrete yet. In fact, he might be from all the timelines conjoined...
He literally went
1. Femboy
2. Puberty
3. Furry
4. *_h o t_*
Alcer The Demon yepp
What on Earth is a Femboy?
On botw he is still a femboy tbh
@@briannawilson8845 A Boy That Wears Girl Stuff And Acts Like A Girl That's What Femboy Means
@@foo5999 Oh, I see. Thank you!
That dude playing botw is smart I've never thought of fighting waterblight like that

Ikr bro
Now my whole life is a lie - _-
I beat waterblight with arrows and master sword
@@lyzanderrodriguez775 Jus normal arrows?
18:15 I LOVE WHEN HE SHOOTS THA ARROW SO MAGISTIC
IKR
That's link for ya
My best bud in games
1986 : meh
2000 : ok i guess
2018 : HES SO HOT MARRY ME
10 000 000 subscriber with no content lol I thought that ever since twilight princess
Oh. My. God.
I’m sorry I have to say this to you but nobody thinks link is hot in any of the games
Hi hi hi hi hi LOL mate it's making me laugh how absolutely wrong you are, did you even read this very comment?
I love Japanese games.I am Polish . In 1920 and 1922, Japan rescued 765 Polish orphans in Siberia. Poland asked Japan to rescue a Polish orphan in Siberia. Japan promised to rescue immediately.
The smallest orphaned child was 2 years old. The child was crying near the dead mother. The Japanese rescued the orphan immediately. The child told the dead mother "Goodbye Mom". Japan rescued a total of 765 Polish orphans.Japan sent orphans to Japan for treatment.Orphans ate delicious and warm meals every day. All Polish orphans have recovered. Almost all Japanese donated money to save orphans. On the day of return, all 765 Polish orphans returned to Poland safely.
In 2018, an elementary school commemorating this was completed in Warsaw. Thank you Japan. God bless Japan.
when link has always been your smash bros character...
*feels apreciated*
Seriously I just have to say, Zelda games on the DS are underrated and forgotten literally just because they’re on the DS (Spirit Tracks and Phantom Hourglass)
The problem with that statement is that the DS is second only to the PS2 as the most sold gaming device of all time. The DS games are underrated because of the touchscreen focused controls.
I mean...not really, look at Super Mario DS, that is loved despite being in the DS
Link is now currently 32 years old.
Also, make evolution of Zelda Plz.
🔺
🔺 🔺
Master Marx what???
he means Princess Zelda has changed with each game
ALMOST NO LINK IS THE SAME!!!
Pokemon
When was the Tri Force red?
Twilight Princess Link:
-Snowboards with Yetis
-Wrestles 4,000 lb gorons and chucks them off mountains
-Turns into a FUCKING WOLF
-Jousts giant pig warlords on bridges
He’s badass
I wish I could go back in time and relive these games again as a child.
Link is one of the best video game characters in my opinion along with Joe Musashi, Alucard, and Pit
what?
For me more like with CJ from GTA SA, Lt. Mike Powell from Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, and a mysterious FSX pilot, I guess.
Um me
My first Zelda was Ocarina of Time, yours?
For me is the re-make of it
If your talking about your first played Zelda game mine was Spirit Tracks
Ocarina was the first one I bought and played for myself, but growing up, I would watch my brother play Link's Awakening.
Same here.
My first was Links Awakening
Best character ever. Love him since Ocarina of Time. All Links are great in their own way. IMHO: Take Twilight Princess Link + make him look just a little bit older = perfection.
My Favourite about TP link is that if you press A after defeating certain enemies such as a bokoblin he does that sword spin thing
The strongest Link is Twilight Princess Link because even though he was taught by OoT Link, TP Link probably perfected those moves and combined with everything else he can do, he’s basically unstoppable.
@Umbweon Danish yea he's good to
Link is a master piece of rhe videogames
NES/Zelda II: Quintessential Link
ALttP/Awakening/Oracles: Silliest
OoT/MM: Most heroic
Toon Link: Cutest
TP: Coolest
SS: Most charismatic
ALBW: Most kindhearted
Hyrule Warriors: Most powerful
BotW: Most athletic
Shakochu It's nice to see a fellow
MOTHER fan here.
I think tp link is the most heroic
Most athletic and strong is TP Link.
Shakochu Ok, I’m not certain what’s “silly” about the ALttp/LA/oracle Link. But other than that, I agree.
Shakochu tp link is more athletic

Why is Skyward Sword bitch ass fucking pussy crybaby ass fucking saccharine bitch at the top? And BOTW bitch ass is in there too???
@@aletanook I remember you from Gamefaqs... Aren't you the guy who's always posting why Link and Zelda is a bad couple and always calling the SS and BOTW versions of Link wusses? Didn't know you had RUclips account, too.
100th like
Best. Character. EVER. ❤
Pink Link ok
Crystal, his name is Red Link.
He was inspired by Peter Pan.
all links are great in their own way
Even CD-I Link?

*Barfs Internally*
@@TiredGiant2112 Your comment cracked me up. How dare Steve praises the garbage that is Zelda CD-I!
But to be fair, the Zelda CD-I games weren't nearly as terrible as Hotel Mario was.
They should do a remake on Twilight Princess in the future, I would totally play it
Ikr? especially for Switch
@d1n3m1c when
better not anytime soon because the game still hold up very well
better remake the 2D one than the 3D game
@d1n3m1c nop that a remaster
It was a missed opportunity for Nintendo not to use the Zelda Wii U tech demo graphics in Twilight Princess HD.
The Legend Of Zelda Majora's Mask is my favorite :3
Zoniko Muñoz banjo you will make it
Making a Banjo-Kazooie rom later on if you're interested mate (: (;
Yeah, Majora's mask tends to be a fan favorite.
Zoniko same, I also like Zelda and the wild princess
@@bloodmuzzle you're right. A FAN favorite. A fan of ZELDA games
More like, 'Links'. I know doesn't make much sense but each Link is one incarnation of the other. So technically, there's more than one in different timelines. None the less, it's the same guy, either way... Well, not really.
Lightman 2120 ¿and what with the Link from Windows Wind Waker?
Joaquin RR I'm sorry, what?
There's multiple Links, but there's also "Link." The character despite having multiple incarnations is still singular enough in appearance to stand as one character.
StuffZ yeah, I know, so technically, it's just the same guy, but in different timelines.
Lightman 2120 Are all the Link the descendant of the previous one as well as incarnations?
I was in first grade when i played Ocarina of Time, will always hold a place in my heart
Will never forget the times of just wanting to explore everything, truly a out of world experience
the Link of this game has the definitive design
Twilight Princess 😍😍
🤦♂️ link does many times in that game
@@lyzanderrodriguez775 ???
Twilight princess was my childhood :)
Twilight Princess is rated t for teen you are teen?
Link is the best :3
Link is who I see myself as
AGREED!!!!!!
thanks
*zelda
Get it right.
Jk I know
Everyone loves the legend of Zelda
0:06 Isn't that Ocarina of Time's opening ?
Probably where it originated from
Amazing list!!! This channel needs.much more attention than it gets!
Personally for me, my favorite link is from Majora’s mask and Twilight Princess. Especially Twilight Princess because there’s just something amusing about Link not only turning into a wolf, but also being trained by another link from the past.
Link has come a long way. My mom knew a little of the Zelda series. My first game was Twilight Princess. Smash Bros. Wii U made me love Link more.
Favorite games (not in any specific order):
- Breath of the Wild
- Twilight Princess (proud to have it as my first Zelda game)
- Majora's Mask
- Wind waker
Honestly, Nintendo must have put a lot of thought to create The Legend of Zelda; and the series grew from there. Link is that unique protagonist, one can never forget. ^ - ^
Too bad he isn't the mascot.
What were your favorite LoZ games?
Twilight Princess is my favorite Zelda game. I thought it was Zelda/Twilight game.
Nanorod Ocarina of Time 3D was my first. Didn't try Zelda ultil I was about 12ish. Actually no that's a lie. I played through Four Swords Anniversary Edition around 9 or 10ish (whenever that came out).
Nanorod My first game was TP. I learned about Zelda at about 10ish
My favorite Zelda is wind waker i love toon link :3
Nanorod Alright look my boi I know you’re not talking about being a youngster when you got an anime picture as your pfp and using the phrase “Got Em”.
it is so satisfying seeing the change of graphics through the years
I love Zelda breath of the wild❤❤
Oh FINALLY THERE IS SOMEONE LIKE ME WHO LOVES THE OPEN WORLD OF BOTW
Yesssss
Everyone here does...
@@TheeSkyeIsFalling lol true, why wouldn't anyone?
Me too!
Twilight Princess is my favorite mainly due to it not being cel shaded. No offense to those that do like cel shading, it's just not my cup of tea.
edit: probably should add be that that doesn't mean I dislike the games with him cel shaded. I liked playing Winder Waker.
LandandSea my favourites are tp and ss because one I like how they look and two I like their personalities
Twilight Princess link is my favorite model, happy I get to play him in breath of the wild, best feature of the amiibos imo
Link of Ocarina of time is my favorite
Same
I really want December to come fast!!!
Wait...for christmas?
Eddy RD Smash Brothers.
i thinking in new zelda in 2d :c
Everybody is. *cough* Smash Ultimate and others *cough*
Tomorrow
The legend of zelda will forever be one of the or possibly the greatest franchise in gaming history
Gruigi Universe Mario says hi 😂😂😂😂
Got to love link, so brave every time, hes got so much cuter as he ages. Also he was featured in soul caliber too.
HE DOESN'T AGE HE'S 118 BUT HE NEVER GETS OLD
@@lyzanderrodriguez775 real question is how did Zelda not age in BotW. It's not like she was in some shrine revitalizing liquid like Link.
@@aIkaIi Zelda has been fighting Ganon ever since Link was asleep in the shrine. And they don't age
Link, my friend! Prepare yourself in Ultimate with your new look of Breath of the wild.
See you in Ultimate.
See you with Pichu. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sarah Little
With Pichu? I'll see that little soon. 😃
Predator Arroyo you sure I'm perfect with both Pikachu and Pichu. 😎
Sarah Little
So you like them? I mean, Pikachu and Pichu?
My first link game is now in ultimate hint breath of ___ ____
The most badasses Links are in Ocarina of Time (Adult) and Twilight Princess imo
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS YOU ARE THE BEST BRO!!! THANKS
Anyone still playing ocarina of time just to listen to the music?
Yes lol
I played it recently with an emulator
Looks like the Twilight Princess Part was the Remaster of 2016.
Looks like HD.
The legend of zelda wind waker is my favorite
OoT is one of my favorite games of all time. It brings back memories of my childhood.
This was the first game I ever played. I was hooked and now it only brings back the best of memories :D first one was link to the past on the super Nintendo.
RIP Soulcalibur II
Rip Zelda Ancient Stones
Rip Zelda Navi Trackers
Rip Zeldas de CD-I
Rip Mario Kart 8
My first zelda was a link to the past
pinguino S Castillo Herrera te veo en todas partes
x2 my first game is a link to the past
El mio tambien
My first was breath of the wild
Que pasa si te encuentras a pinguino S Castillo Herrera:
-Deja de seguirme
-te veo en todos lados
-gente que le responde en gringo
-gente que le responde en español porque sabe que habla español
-te vi en tal canal
Etc etc etc
You've come a long Way Mr. Iwata
nice video. Good job!
You forgot ALTTP on the GBA, All the Phillips games and Soulcalibur II ^^" (maybe there are others games, it s the only i remember). But nice work !
They forgot Mario Kart 8 Deluxe too.
Pokemon Addict. Well ok so that link is the really first link in the evolution and first link LoZ even it had it series plus game realeased in (1979-198?) however it is the first game isn't part of the triology.
That footage for Skyward Sword Link was PATHETIC! He has the most personality and best voice acting out of all of them, and THAT'S what he gets? Damn, man!!
16:28 That is the most efficient way to fight Waterblight Ganon, I'm surprised I didn't think of it. :0
Happy St. Patrick's Day to you, Link!
☘️🗡️🛡️
And we thought he was one of Santa’s Elves
Years link wear green and wear long green hat and botw dosen’t wear green he wears blue and dosen’t wear long green hat
I was really hoping you would show off twilight princess link better because he a bunch of cool moves that he can do in combat and they were optional and could be done at anytime unlike windwaker link
OMG, that's amazing!
Nice video. You were missing the Link in Soul Calibur 2 tho :p
MY BOY!!!!
Great video! But you forgot SoulCalibur Link. I was expecting him to show up in this video.
Nice video link is my favorite character and my principal character in the saga super smash bros and i like zelda's games
OOT was my first Zelda, such a great game...
Played it 3x on my N64 and 2x on the 3DS
My first was Wind Waker, but my favorite is Majora’s Mask.
Me(Link): **brings gum to school**
My class(the chickens): 18:13
Okay gacha
I just realized something...
Smash brothers ultimate link has the master sword and Hylian shield...Along with a travelers bow.
What?
Ikr why not revalis awesome triple shot bow
@@alejandrodiazduran4891 But then,in his final smash,he uses the best bow in the game,the ancient bow.
I've seen multiple lists that rank them,ancient bow is always higher.
It shoots nearly twice as far as the lynel bow and is far more durable.
@@fanboyyourguy i think that revalis bow looks cool alongside the master sword and hylian shield
The nostalgia from watching this
1:42 top evolution of videogames history
Sadly I only have 3 Zelda games, spirit tracks which I lost so it’s technically 2, but the other 2 are breath of the wild and ocarina of time so I’m fine
Ditkovich you ever get your rent from Peter
The link of breath of the wild is the best
Nope.
Just kidinng! Lol
wow your not a true. fan you dont just say a game is the best
Angel DX twilight princess' link is the best.
Capsy Dash agreed and wind waker
Angel DX i like more the link of twilight princess
Man for some reason I thought that ocarina of time 3d came out way earlier I thought it came out in like 2015 or 16 that’s wild... thank you for informing me!!
Everyone loves link. He is my favorite
Teacher: There are 5 different senses, smell, taste, hear, sight and touch.
Me: I can hear videos.
Teacher: No, of course, you can't silly
Me: 18:13
Uh what
The CUCCOS
Link looks older now in 2018, the web says that he is 16 now.
In Breath of the Wild, he is 17 or older.
AngelDemon not really he's over a 100 years old 😂
@@qilinit YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!
How?
Link is my favorite video game protagonist of all time.
I can't wait for BOTW 2 to be released on Nintendo Switch to see every Link to meet each other from different timelines
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Young link in smash?
You forgot adult Link in OOT 3d.
Well there is actually 10 versions of Ocarina of time(mostly beta version)
And the Phillips CDI one too
@@robertstabile can forget the most important
Mario kart 8 too
Pit: You've starred in 27 games!?
Link: Yep. My series was quite popular. How many games did you star in?
Pit: 😐
My fav is Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword
Darkest games (but atmosphere.... OH YEAH) Twilight Princess and ocarina of time
My lovely : breath of the wild and windwaker(rip Wii U)
Seriously , my nickname like WWE's fighter (i just think about it)
have you played MM?
hi :3 yeah mm is vey dark
I've found a error, this video should be named "Evolution of Zelda"
Btw. Hero of Time 4 life
Fox I agree
Fox you're right
You forgot Soul Caliber II (i think), Mario Kart 8, and the Cdi games. But this was a great video nonetheless.
i had every Zelda game for basicly every Nintendo gaming system,i remember playing all of them.
*shows ocarina of time*
My life is broken by nostalgia ;-;

sorry
*Ricardo Alexis N* don't worry about it, man. It's fine.
Fantastic game. I never got it in 2011, but I got it in 2017 and beat it. It was a long, worth while game and it was fkn awesome. Lanayru Mining Facility, Skykeep, Demise. Game was awesome and very fun to play (except swimming)
I always played zelda four swords adventures with my borhter sister and cousin, it will always have a special place in my heart
Damn. I think I'm starting to get into Zelda
