The real question is: why would Nintendo make a sword into a girl? It makes no sense, whatsoever. This is the Master Sword, which is just that: a sword, right? I was unaware that it could transform into this being, otherwise I'm sure we'd have seen it long before now.
This post is so funny. Why would they do A LOT of crazy things in the Zelda games? It's not like they are based on reality. Its a fantasy themed adventure game.

Well obvious if they are trying to do something new, she wouldnt have been there before. If its about the origin of the sword or if Link and everyone else never knew about it til now, I can kinna see it happening.

But that's just random theory's.
That does make sense. Im guessing it could be about the origin of the sword or maybe its the spirit of the sword that we never knew about.

Yeah, you're right. But you know what? If the Master Sword were really some girl, I believe it would have been revealed by now. Not to mention how old the Master Sword is, and how old that girl looks. Makes no sense, even if it's a game. Games do happen to follow some logic, afterall.

Also, I've never played the Minish Cap, so I can't really compare the Master Sword and the girl with Link's hat. I want to play it, though.

And I have to say that the girl being the personification of the Master Sword makes a lot more sense than actually being the Master Sword herself. There's a big difference.

Re: Do you think she's really the personification of the Master Sword?

Whether she is or not, she has to have some connection to the Master Sword. There is simply too many aesthetic similarities for it to be a coincidence.

This is Nintendo we're talking about. They haven't made much sense since they invented the Famicom.

They'd probably do a cheap "Btw, the soul in the MS has been in deep sleep for a long time [i.e. during all the previous titles]"-type explanation or "The soul in the MS has silently been watching Link but only now does it have a reason to wake up"... or some other lame explanation

Re: Do you think she's really the personification of the Master Sword?

I'm hoping this is the first game in the series, timeline wise, before the Master Sword actually exists. Maybe Link and this fairy/girl become great friends, and by the end of the game she's forced to transform herself into the Master Sword, to provide Link with the kind of weapon he'll need. She would probably be a Navi/Midna type support character before that.

That would kind of explain why every ****ing Link looks the same. The girl has her preferences. 100% theory, obviously. Not even mine, but my friend came up with it while we were playing Halo a few weeks ago, and I thought it was genius.

??? If somethings brought out to be new, why the hell would we have known that earlier? If they had the idea to make a lady of the mastersword earlier, they would have shown it. But if the idea is NEW, how would they go into the past and re-edit their games so that they could bring out this new story idea? How about just make some kind of prequel or new game that tells about it. Like they might be doing here. And its not like we know everything about the Zelda universe. Just what they tell us.

Exactly. The logic above is just bad-logic for why it wouldnt be the personification of the Master Sword.

The aesthetic similarities and Miyamoto's hints pretty much points to all this.

the idea of a new Zelda gives me a proverbial bonar.

thus, any theory having to do with the new Zelda give me....

Re: Do you think she's really the personification of the Master Sword?

1) Really I don't see the resemblance. There's the jewel... which is the wrong color... and that's about all I see that's even close to similar. She looks WAY more similar to the Fairy Queen from TWW.

2) If it's the fairy queen, maybe he uses magic from her, instead of a sword.

Seriously, though, the girl looks nothing like the MS.

Like TP, I was skeptical when people saw the second trailer and immediately concluded that Link was the howling wolf at the end of the trailer. How right they were. This is much more blunt, though.
Yes giving inanimate objects a physical being makes much more sense then swinging this thing around like a sword...Please. Both are ridiculous, also concept art can change. It's a early concept of the game that may change, now if this was a video it woulda actually be more real and easier to believe.

Okay, click here, and zoom into the picture so all the marked attributes (the ones which match the girl) of the MS are clear. Then, look again at the poster of Link and the Girl.

1. Her head is shaped like the tip of the MS.

2. The jewel is shaped rather similarly to the jewel of the MS (look at the picture that I put a link to above, the OP doesn't have a good image of the MS)

3. The curved golden lines on her waist correspond to the curved golden lines on the MS, and they look pretty damn similar.

4. Her blue "belt" matches that part of the sword just above the handle.

5. Her leggings are a criss-cross pattern, matching the handle of the MS.

6. Almost all of these elements are in the same order as they are on the MS, tip-to-handle (with the exception of the jewel)

7. All of these details are not coincidential.

8. Miyamoto himself mentioned Link's lack of a sword in his hand when he was talking about the poster.

9. As for the jewel color, that's something that could be explained easily by some ingame event/occurence, like, for example, the jewel's blue when she's not the sword.

10. She has the head of the fairy queen. That is all. Plus, it would have been far too obvious if the clue to her identity was so obvious (her face).

Also, and this last bit is pure speculation, but if her "wings" were to fold up, they'd match the wings on the MS's handle.

Re: Do you think she's really the personification of the Master Sword?

HEY!!


LISTEN!!!!

*flits around the screen*

you guys:

Myamoto is trying to fix Freud's outdated gender assumptions.

A sword is obviously a phallic device.

Freud says that the reason girls are such man-haters is because they have this thing called "penis-envy".

However, in light of this new Zelda concept art I think it's safe to say this:

Girls don't want a penis, they want to be a penis.

Does anybody else agree?

LOL hahaha
Phallic devices go back to MM(Stone Towers) so Nintendo does indeed make stuff that resembles phallic devices(Banjo Kazooie), so this has the same amount of chance of being true just like the fairy being the sword.

1) Her head = round. Sword = straight line. I mean her head is pointed, but it doesn't look like a sword...

2) I agree, the jewel is similar... but the wrong color...

3) I don't see it.

4) You mean the hilt?

5) Hmm I hadn't actually noticed that. That's pretty interesting, actually.

6) Yeah, that's because humans usually have their head above their waist, their waist above their legs, and sometimes they wear a belt... I don't see what's so special except for the fact that the jewel would be in the wrong place, as you mentioned.

7) That's not biased at all....

8) That could mean a lot of things.

9) But it's fanfic at this point.

10) Yeah. The more evidence the less likely... owait

thats.. uh... well i guess a very positive way of looking at the news. Im sure Miyamoto wouldnt like to hear all his fans got 'bonars' at first hearing the news of a new Wii game.. But hey its better that some fans got boners than if they shuddered and it went in backwards like a guygina.

Miyamoto: Yeah, that's probably the most important part of that artwork. I really can't talk too much about [it]; one thing that's important to note in that artwork, though, is that Link is carrying a shield, but that's all he's carrying.

If people got boners when I played the cello I would be ****ing thrilled.

That's like one of the biggest ego boosters in the world.

Although I would prefer a female-gazm, because that's my preference.
