Link Species Hylian First appearance The Legend of Zelda (1986, The Legend of Zelda series) Super Mario Bros. & Friends: When I Grow Up (1992, Mario franchise) Latest appearance Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition (2018, The Legend of Zelda series) WarioWare Gold (2018, Mario franchise) Latest portrayal Kengo Takanashi (The Legend of Zelda series) Takashi Ōhara (Mario series) Link is the main protagonist of the The Legend of Zelda series created by Nintendo. Over the course of the series, many different incarnations of Link have existed, chosen by the Goddesses of Hyrule to protect the land from evil. Each incarnation of him bears the Triforce of Courage, and usually has to fight Ganon and save Hyrule and its ruler, Princess Zelda. Being one of the most popular Nintendo video game characters alongside Mario, Link has had several crossover appearances within the Mario franchise. History Super Mario Bros. & Friends: When I Grow Up Link as a traveling guide. Link's first appearance in the Mario series is the coloring game Super Mario Bros. & Friends: When I Grow Up. He first appears on the "Chef" page, where he is shown waiting for a pasta dish cooked by Mario. He later appears on the "Travel Guide" page, which depicts him owning a travelling agency. Several enemies from The Legend of Zelda series also make appearances in the other career pages. Club Nintendo Link as seen in the Club Nintendo comic "Mario in Mariozilla". Link also makes several appearances in the Mario-based comics within the German Club Nintendo magazine, his appearance based upon that in the original The Legend of Zelda. He debuts in "Super Mario: Die Bescherung", celebrating a Christmas party in the Mario Bros.' House. His role in this story is minor, though he has a brief speaking part at the end, mistrusting the realness of Santa Claus. In "Warios Weihnachtsmärchen", Link appears in the role of the Ghost of Present. Like in the story it is based on, Link takes Wario to see those he had upset earlier. In "Mario in Mariozilla", he is seen in the Empire State Building, studying a map together with Dr. Light, who lives there. Link's actual role is unknown, though it appears that he works as Light's assistant. He also comments on a "magic cap" Light gave to Mario in order to make him incognito - actually a simple paper bag pulled over his head - in the way that it "becomes" him. Link, alongside Kirby, is Mario's ally in the comic "Super Mario in Die Nacht des Grauens". During the events of this story, he lives in a Brooklyn skyscraper and fights against Abigor and his demonic fellows who plan to take over the building. He does so by making use of a magic serum which turns him and his allies into aggressive ghostbusters. In this form, he has green skin, black armor and a fire sword. Donkey Kong series Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest Link comes in third place as one of Cranky's Video Game Heroes. In Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest (and Donkey Kong Land 2), Link is ranked third in Cranky Kong’s list of Video Game Heroes. Mario comes in first place, while Yoshi comes in second place. The heroes are ranked according to how many of Cranky's hidden DK Coins they have discovered while progressing through the levels and defeating Kaptain K. Rool. By collecting more DK Coins than he did (19), Diddy Kong can knock Link off the leader board and become the #3 Video Game Hero of Donkey Kong Country 2/Donkey Kong Land 2. However, in the Game Boy Advance port, Link and Yoshi's positions are swapped, and thus Diddy can only kick Link down to third place and knock Yoshi off the leader board. Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! In Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!, in one of the dialogue sequences, Bazaar the Bear states that Link visited his General Store the week before, asking who owns the castle in the northern part of the Northern Kremisphere. He did not have enough Bear Coins, but Bazaar thought him nice enough that he accepted a payment of 500 rupees instead. After being told the information, Link left, grumbling about the seashells being the wrong shape (a nod to the Secret Seashell sidequest in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening). This dialogue was removed in the GBA remake. Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars Link sleeping at the Rose Town Inn in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, Link can be found taking a break from battling Ganon and actually resting at the Rose Town Inn. In fact, the Hylian hero is a heavy sleeper; he does not even awaken when spoken to (this is likely a nod to Link's constant portrayal as a silent protagonist). However, a strange but familiar melody can be heard whenever anyone tries to talk to the slumbering Link: the melody that plays when the player reveals a secret in the Zelda series. Super Smash Bros. series Super Smash Bros. character Link Game appearances Super Smash Bros. Super Smash Bros. Melee Super Smash Bros. Brawl Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Special moves Standard:  Boomerang (64); Bow / Hero's Bow (Melee onward) Side:  Boomerang (Melee, Ultimate); Gale Boomerang (Brawl onward) Up:  Spin Attack Down:  Bomb Final Smash:  Triforce Slash (Brawl, 3DS/Wii U) Battle entrance Link floats down in a beam of light. (64) Link whirls in via Gale Boomerang. (Brawl, 3DS/Wii U) Link flies in with his Paraglider. (Ultimate) Link appears in all five released Super Smash Bros. games as a default character. Most of Link's standard attacks make use of the Master Sword, while his specials are all attacks or items from The Legend of Zelda series. Super Smash Bros. Link's artwork from Super Smash Bros. SmashWiki article: Link (SSB) In Super Smash Bros., Link's design is based on Adult Link from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Link is the first character fought in single player mode, on Hyrule Castle. Link's standard special move in this game is the Boomerang, in which Link tosses a boomerang to damage opponents. His up special move is the Spin Attack, in which he spins around rapidly to deal damage; and his down special is Bomb, in which Link pulls out a bomb to throw. In addition, Link's grab move uses the Hookshot, an item also taking its appearance from Ocarina of Time that can also be used as a wall grapple. Link's up and down aerials are the Jump Thrust and Down Thrust, both of which originated in Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. Two of Link's alternate colorations in this game are based upon the Goron and Zora Tunics from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, while his final coloration is based upon his outfit after collecting the Blue Ring in the original The Legend of Zelda. Super Smash Bros. Melee Link as he appeared in Super Smash Bros. Melee. SmashWiki article: Link (SSBM) In Super Smash Bros. Melee, Link retains his The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time appearance, though some of his moves have been changed. His standard special attack has been replaced with the Bow, which lets Link shoot an arrow that can be charged; the boomerang has instead been made his side special move. His other specials are kept the same, as has the Hookshot. Starting with this game, Link can also use the Hylian Shield he carries to defend from projectile attacks while standing still. In the game's Adventure Mode, Link is fought in the Underground Maze stage. He can be found at fake pedestals for the Master Sword (wearing a different tunic each time) as fighters search for the Triforce to end the level. Young Link, Link's child self from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, is also a separate playable character, much in the same manner that Mario and Baby Mario often appear in the same game. Additionally, a doppelganger of Link, known as Dark Link, is a boss-type enemy that can be fought in the game during an Event match. Super Smash Bros. Brawl SmashWiki article: Link (SSBB) Link was the first character to be announced for Super Smash Bros. Brawl. His appearance and moveset in this game have been changed to reflect those of their appearance in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess; the bow (now called "Hero's Bow") and bombs have been aesthetically swapped to match their Twilight Princess appearances, while the boomerang has been replaced with the Gale Boomerang, which generates a whirlwind that can drag in opponents as it returns. The Hookshot has also been replaced with the Clawshot from Twilight Princess, which, when used offstage, can home in on ledges and grab them unlike the Hookshot; however, it is now a tether recovery as opposed to a wall grapple. Link has a new voice actor in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Akira Sasanuma, who voiced him in Twilight Princess. Dark Link is also in the game, both as one of Link's alternative colors and as an opponent in an Event match. Toon Link, the Link incarnation from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, also appears in the game as a playable character, with a similar moveset to Link's. Role in the Subspace Emissary Link's snapshot in the Subspace Emissary While walking through a forest, Links finds the Master Sword. Taking it in hand, he meets up with Yoshi, forming an alliance. They later meet Mario and Pit, though under circumstances where Mario/Link defeats an evil copy of Zelda/Peach, leading to a fight. The two groups come to an understanding (and Kirby joins up as well) and unite as they see King Dedede driving off with Ness, Luigi, and the captured Princess. They come to Dedede's base, only to find that Bowser has beaten them to it, taking the Princess off in his Koopa Clown Car. The team grows in size as they meet with Ike, Marth, Lucas, the Pokémon Trainer, and the Ice Climbers. The remaining heroes join them as they enter Subspace. Link is among the many that falls to Tabuu's Off Waves, only to be revived by Kirby. He and Zelda come across Ganondorf's trophy and revive him, forming a temporary alliance as everyone teams up to defeat Tabuu. Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U SmashWiki article: Link (SSB4) Link reappears in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U as a playable character along with Toon Link. He retains the design from his incarnation in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, though with a brighter color scheme than that of Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Twilight Princess. Link retains much of his moveset from the previous game, though some of his non-special moves have been altered, such as his down aerial gaining a meteor smash effect and being given a new dash attack, which is the Jump Slash. Link's shield can also block projectiles while walking in this game. Link keeps all of his alternate costumes from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, while gaining two more: one based on the clothes he wears at the beginning of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, and another based on Fierce Deity Link, a transformation obtained at the end of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate This section is referring to a subject in an upcoming or recently released game. When the game is released, or more information about this subject is found, this section may need major rewriting. Remove this only when the changes have been applied. Link in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate SmashWiki article: Link (SSBU) Link is set to make a reappearance as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. This time, his appearance is based on his design from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. As a result, Link takes on many different stances during battle (though this is just cosmetic); additionally, his Master Sword will be longer and larger, increasing the reach in his attacks. The Nintendo E3 2018 reveal shows Link donning the Tunic of the Wild, which resembles Link's classic design, as one of his costumes. Link has received some alterations to his moves, namely a new down special move, which uses the Remote Bomb Rune, and a new Final Smash which involves an Ancient Bow and Ancient Arrow. Additionally, as neither the Hookshot nor the Clawshot appears in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Link's grab is now a regular, direct grab, and he can no longer execute a tether recovery. Special moves Boomerang Link using the Boomerang in Super Smash Bros. Melee SmashWiki article: Boomerang The Boomerang is a recurring item throughout The Legend of Zelda series that appears as Link's standard special move in Super Smash Bros., and as his side special move in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Originally designed after the Boomerang in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, in Super Smash Bros. Melee, the move is also used by Young Link, who uses the same Boomerang. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Link's Boomerang is the same one from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. When the move is used, the player throws a Boomerang at opponents that can damage them, automatically returning to the player once it hits an opponent or wall. The player can hold the control stick to make it fly farther, and can also be thrown diagonally. The Boomerang can also fly up or down while it is active by tilting the control stick just before throwing it. In later games, the move is used by Toon Link, whose design of the Boomerang is based on that in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. Hero's Bow Link using the Hero's Bow in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U SmashWiki article: Hero's Bow The Hero's Bow (simply referred to as Bow in Super Smash Bros. Melee) is Link's standard special move since Super Smash Bros. Melee, replacing the Boomerang from Super Smash Bros. The move is based upon the recurring Bow item throughout The Legend of Zelda series. In Super Smash Bros. Melee, Link's Bow is based on the Fairy Bow in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time; in the later games, Link's Hero's Bow takes its design from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. When used, Link fires an arrow from the bow at opponents to damage them. The player can charge the attack to increase the distance the arrow travels and its damage output by holding down the special move button. In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Link's first custom variant for this move is the Power Bow, which has less range than normal but increases the power of the arrow. His second is the Quickfire Bow (parsed Quick-Fire Bow in PAL regions), which allows Link to fire arrows more quickly that can travel through opponents. Link's Bow special move reappears in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, where he uses the Traveler's Bow instead. This time, after an arrow is fired and it lands on the ground, it lingers rather than disappear after a period of time. Link can then pick it up and throw it at opponents, or press the special move button again to draw two arrows at once, which deal double damage. Names in other languages Language Name Meaning Japanese 勇者の弓 Yūsha no Yumi Hero's Bow Link using the Hero's Bow in Super Smash Bros. Brawl Gale Boomerang The Gale Boomerang in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U SmashWiki article: Gale Boomerang The Gale Boomerang is Link's side special move in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, based on the Gale Boomerang item from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and replacing the Boomerang from the previous games. When used, the Gale Boomerang generates a whirlwind; the attack hurts opponents when thrown, and the whirlwind draws opponents and small items in as it returns, though it deals no damage. Like the previous Boomerang, it returns to Link automatically once it hits an opponent or a wall, and the Gale Boomerang can also be thrown at an angle. In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Link's first custom variant for this move is Boomerang, which gives it similar properties to Link's previous Boomerang move, meaning that it does not pull in opponents. The second is Ripping Boomerang, which makes the attack slower and gives it a shorter range, but allows it to pass through opponents as it flies out and deals multiple hits rather than having the whirlwind property. Names in other languages Language Name Meaning Japanese 疾風のブーメラン Shippū no Būmeran Gale Boomerang The Gale Boomerang in Super Smash Bros. Brawl Spin Attack Link using the Spin Attack in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U SmashWiki article: Spin Attack The Spin Attack is Link's up special move in every installment of the Super Smash Bros. series. The move is based on the Spin Attack move recurring throughout The Legend of Zelda series. When used, Link spins around rapidly with their sword to deal damage. When used in the air, the move also gives Link some vertical and horizontal distance. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl onward, the move can be charged by holding down the special attack button when used on the ground to deal more damage. In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Link's first custom variant for this move is Shocking Spin, which gives the attack more power and deals electric damage, but it covers less distance than Spin Attack, and its ending lag is longer as well. Link's second variant is Whirling Leap, which greatly improves Link's recovery by giving him more vertical height, and his horizontal mobility is increased drastically during the move's duration as well. However, the move does not deal any damage, nor can it be charged, so its only use is for recovery. When used on the ground, Link leaps up to perform the move. Names in other languages Language Name Meaning Japanese 回転斬り Kaitengiri Rotating Slash Link using the Spin Attack in Super Smash Bros. Brawl Bomb Link with a Bomb in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U SmashWiki article: Bomb (Link) The Bomb is Link's down special move throughout the Super Smash Bros. series, and based on the item recurring throughout The Legend of Zelda series. When used, Link pulls a Bomb out that can then be thrown at other characters to do damage, exploding on impact. Like other explosives, the Bombs also deal damage to the holder; it can also be caught and thrown by opponents, or detonate in the player's hands. The player cannot use the move while holding another item, as the Bombs count as an item. In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, the first custom variant for this move is Giant Bomb, which gives Link a larger Bomb that deals more damage and has a larger blast radius, but does not automatically explode upon impact. The second is Meteor Bomb, which lessens the time that the Bomb will explode and weakens it, but gives it a meteor smash property. In Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee, the Bombs used by Link and Young Link are based on the ones from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, however, the Bombs used by Link are based on the ones from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Names in other languages Language Name Meaning Japanese 爆弾 Bakudan Bomb Link using the Bomb in Super Smash Bros. Brawl Remote Bomb Rune This section is referring to a subject in an upcoming or recently released game. When the game is released, or more information about this subject is found, this section may need major rewriting. Remove this only when the changes have been applied. Link uses the Remote Bomb Rune for his down special move in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. When first used, Link produces a spherical Remote Bomb, which can then be thrown. After doing so, it can then be picked up again by Link or other fighters like an item, or knocked around with attacks. If the player activates the move again, Link detonates the Remote Bomb with his Sheikah Slate, damaging any fighters caught within the blast radius. Only one Remote Bomb can appear at a time. Final Smash Triforce Slash The Triforce Slash in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U SmashWiki article: Triforce Slash Triforce Slash is Link's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. When activated, Link's Triforce on his hand glows and he fires a beam of light directly in front of him. If an opponent is in the line of fire, they will be trapped between two Triforces as Link rushes forward to deliver several sword blows. After fifteen slashes, the character rushes through the trapped opponent, launching them. If the beam of light does not reach an opponent, the attack fails.

Palutena's Guidance Pit: Of all the fighters, Link is the one I most want to take down! Palutena: Oh? Why's that? Pit: We were born around the same time, and we both use a bow. He's totally ripping off my style. Viridi: Puh-lease! Comparing Link to you is like comparing a star to a campfire. Pit: What?! Viridi: Just look at those chiseled features! His cheekbones could seriously cut glass. Pit: Uh, earth to Viridi! Viridi: Oh, I'm only kidding. The goddess of nature would never be interested in some hairless monkey! Palutena: Oh, humans aren't all that bad. I could introduce you to him, if you'd like. Viridi: Hmph. If you insist. Palutena: Back to the fight at hand. Pit, you can reflect Link's projectile attacks using your Guardian Orbitars. Viridi: Just watch out for his dreamy Clawshot! amiibo Link is the main character in The Legend of Zelda games. A young boy living in Hyrule, Link is often given the task of rescuing Princess Zelda and Hyrule from the Gerudo thief Ganondorf. Humble to the end, Link is known not merely as a hero but as a symbol of courage, strength and wisdom as well.

Link, along with many other non-Mario Nintendo characters, was meant to appear in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, at Starbeans Cafe; he would have given Mario and Luigi the Triforce. In the final game, all of the Nintendo cameos are replaced with Professor E. Gadd, and the Triforce is instead the Great Force. Link appears in Nintendo Monopoly. He takes the place of Pennsylvania Avenue, and costs $320. In the Club Nintendo comic "Super Mario: Die Verwandlung", Dr. Light constantly mistakes Mario for Link. One of these confusions also implies that Link has undergone an aesthetic surgery by Light. Though the Link in Mario Kart 8 is based on the incarnation from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, he is left-handed in Mario Kart 8, as opposed to his right-handedness in Skyward Sword, as most other Links in the Zelda games are left-handed. A data-mine of Super Mario Odyssey revealed that a Link costume for Mario was planned to be part of the game, but files pertaining to it have since been removed as of the Balloon World update.
