## Age

During an Iwata Asks for Ocarina of Time 3D, Shigeru Miyamoto stated that Link is about 12 in The Legend of Zelda; however, according to Hyrule Historia, Link is 10. As stated in The Official Nintendo Player's Guide, Hyrule Historia, and by Shigeru Miyamoto during the Iwata Asks for Ocarina of Time 3D, Link is 16 in The Adventure of Link.
In the same Iwata Asks, Miyamoto stated that in Ocarina of Time, Link is 9 as a child and 16 as an adult; however, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time — Official Nintendo Player's Guide by Nintendo Power states that he is 10 as a child. According to the Ocarina of Time Link amiibo description, he is 17 as an adult.
At the start of The Wind Waker, Link is given the Hero's Clothes to wear on his birthday, which are to be worn by the boys of Outset Island upon reaching the same age as the Hero of Time when he set out on his journey. Taking into account the age of the Hero of Time revealed in the Iwata Asks interview, the Hero of Winds would be around 9 years old when he sets out on his journey; however, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker — The Official Nintendo Player's Guide by Nintendo Power, Zelda Box, Encyclopedia, the Toon Link Trophy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and the description for the Toon Link amiibo all state he is 12 years old.
In an interview with Club Nintendo in 2005, Eiji Aonuma stated that Link is 17 years old in Twilight Princess; however, in an interview with Nintendo Dream the following year, Aonuma said Link is 16 years old. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess — PRIMA Official Game Guide by Prima Games and Enterplay's Trading Card for Link both refer to him as 17 years old.
According to Hyrule Historia, Link from Skyward Sword is 17 and a half years old.
Due to the Slumber of Restoration, Link is chronologically over 100 years old in Breath of the Wild, although the Slumber appears to have allowed him to retain a young biological age - in fact, he is refused service at the Noble Canteen in Gerudo Town because of this. He is however allowed to climb Mount Lanayru, which requires one to be at least 17 years old to climb. Link is said to be a similar age to Princess Zelda.[citation needed] One of the Memories reveals Zelda turned 17 a century prior, making Link somewhere around 117 years old.

## Trivia

* Shigeru Miyamoto has said that Link's green tunic and hat were inspired by Disney's version of Peter Pan.

In The Adventure of Link, Link appears to speak when he finds the Mirror in Saria Town, saying "I found a mirror under the table." Link also appears to speak while inspecting the fireplace in the town of Kasuto, saying "Looks like I can get in the fireplace." In Breath of the Wild, he speaks when examining the cooked fish around the Campfire in Lurelin Village, commenting, "These grilled fish look really good. I wonder if they were caught locally...". This also occurs when he looks at Paya's diary, saying, "Must be Paya's diary. Must not look... Must not look... Must not look...". Furthermore, in the Japanese version of Breath of the Wild, the Adventure Log is written entirely from Link's perspective.

* In A Link to the Past, Link's Awakening, Oracle of Ages, Oracle of Seasons, The Minish Cap or any other sprite-based game of the series when Link faces east, he swings his Sword as if he was right-handed, due to Link's sprite being flipped horizontally; this also happens when Link performs a Spin Attack while facing east, spinning the opposite direction to what he normally would.

In A Link to the Past, for unknown reasons, Link's hair appears as pink; in official art for the game, it is a light brown.

* Using the Iron Boots in the pool in the Lakeside Laboratory and comparing to the measuring graph, Link stands 1.7 m (5'7") tall as an adult in Ocarina of Time.
* Early screenshots of Majora's Mask show Link with an item resembling a Mask of his adult face. This has led many to believe that an adult version of Link was originally planned to be in the game; however, the Mask is not present in the final version and was likely replaced by the Fierce Deity's Mask. Concept art for an adult Link also appears in the Hyrule Historia book, with the explanation that his inclusion may have been a prototype for the Fierce Deity form. Fierce Deity Link's model and animations are based on Link wielding Biggoron's Sword as an adult in Ocarina of Time.
* In the German and Italian versions of The Minish Cap, Smith is Link's uncle rather than his grandfather.[citation needed]
* Since the Hero's Spirit in Twilight Princess is the Hero of Time, this makes Twilight Princess the first game to feature a Link having proper conversations on his own as opposed to simple responses chosen by the player or utterances during gameplay, as well as having two Links meet in canon content that are of different eras.
* The second instance of the latter is when Link from Breath of the Wild can summon the hero from Twilight Princess in wolf form to aid him on his adventure.
* The Links featured in Skyward Sword and Breath of the Wild are the only Links that are right-handed.

Link also appears as right-handed in the Wii version of Twilight Princess, in Ocarina of Time 3D's Master Quest, and in Master Mode in Twilight Princess HD.

* While the Link from Skyward Sword is right-handed, his appearance in Mario Kart 8 is shown as left-handed, as he holds the Master Sword with his left hand when doing a trick. The same goes for Breath of the Wild Link.
* Though most characters in the series named Link are the protagonist, there are a few exceptions. Such as Sera's pet Cat from Twilight Princess, Abe and Rose's pet Pig in The Wind Waker and a Goron named Link in Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask.
* Hyrule Historia suggests the possibility that each "Link" may have all had different names, a reference to how Link can be named anything in the games.
* The exception to this is Breath of the Wild's Link, who is explicitly named as such and whose name can not be customized by the player.

Although Link is canonically male, early press releases for The Legend of Zelda, in particular the 1986 Shonen Captain Magazine, depicted Link as female.
