Can't lie I've been a Zelda fan for years, and even considered buying a Wii U for the upcoming game, but I didn't know this

What I found most disturbing was Tetra from The Wind Waker. Here you have a strong female pirate, commanding an all-male crew, and venturing out to sea. But later in the game it’s revealed that she is the heir to the Hyrulean throne. We then see her skin color change to a fair and pristine white, and with that, Ganondorf comes along and swipes her away. It just irked me the wrong way that the only way she could be seen as royal was with a new shade of skin. Is it so wrong to see Zelda with dark skin while wearing her full Hyrulean garb?

This shyt is unacceptable. And y'all was running around excited about the remake.

fukk Zelda, and fukk Nintendo till they decide to put some diversity in their games :pacspit:

It's a game. And I'd rather not, Japanese people don't understand diversity and representation. Unless you like characters like Barrett Wallace.

I didn't see anything wrong with Barrett :ehh:

And maybe they should learn about diversity and representation if they want a diverse audience.
