Zelda's a princess, so we know why she's in the Girl's bathroom - primping as any princess would in front of a mirror.

The question is, what is Link doing in there?!?!

the question is... what was joystiq doing there?

C. Grant: May 11th 2006; 3:50PM

Oh... us? Just ... uh, hanging out. Why?

Dr Forrester: May 11th 2006; 3:51PM

Zelda looks like she could kick Link's ass.

DarkMa: May 11th 2006; 3:51PM

LOL... that's awesome. Link's a perv.....

Dmek: May 11th 2006; 3:51PM

Link is adjusting himself after ear-banging Zelda.

Curtos: May 11th 2006; 3:52PM

It looks like its pikminlink

After sunset, Link becomes the Twilight Princess.

Thats not the Girl's bathroom, the Princess is simply an imposter/sman.

rascal: May 11th 2006; 3:55PM

The link character is a cosplayer "pikminlink". Its actually a quite well done outfit.

Clearly they were having a quickie.

Insomnia Bob: May 11th 2006; 4:05PM

You know, I've always had my suspicions about Link. My friends always laughed. But now, I am vindicated.

Neil: May 11th 2006; 4:05PM

The real question is - why is Joystiq taking photos in the bathroom?

draco: May 11th 2006; 4:07PM

GOD! whats with all the trashing nintendo!!! seriously (arctually sarcasm ;)) you don't think Link and Zelda can have their own private bathroom? question is whos the photographer, and whats he doing there?

Neko Tsukimi: May 11th 2006; 4:16PM

Either there's a girl on Joystiq's staff... or the expression on Zelda's face is the last thing the photographer saw before landing in a hospital bed :D

What!? A girl...on the internet?!?

mandarin: May 11th 2006; 4:23PM

What if that's the mens restroom?

mabadaba: May 11th 2006; 4:24PM

maybe you guys should look at the name of the person who posted the pic.

pete: May 11th 2006; 4:25PM

I'd hit it.

Shad Genki: May 11th 2006; 4:36PM

Because it's a girl in a costume, dumbass.

dude, calm down. it's called a joke.

raging_evil: May 11th 2006; 4:57PM

That Link chick looks like the one from a G4 skit that was aired on Tuesday. Maybe they are shooting a new one.

I thought the skit was pretty funny. It was about the 3 companies and their properties having a rumble.

Nintendo => Link & Mario
Sony => Snake & Kratos
Microsoft => Master Chief only

Blue Spotted Frog: May 11th 2006; 4:58PM

No mystery here. Link is a woman. You mean you didn't know?

Anne Packrat: May 11th 2006; 5:12PM

Yeah that Link cosplayer is PikminLink, the best Link cosplayer in town, hands down. And yes she's a woman. And I think just about every other woman I've met would go lesbian for her.

dirtyone: May 11th 2006; 5:21PM

zelda and Link are rug munchers? Now i know why nintendo is calling it the wii now!

WHEEE baby

Freezair: May 11th 2006; 5:23PM

Probably not. I guess they've never beaten a Zelda game fast enough. ;)

(I kid! I kid because I love! Don't murder me!)

putting his rubber penis back.

ThePrincessZelda: May 12th 2006; 12:39AM

LOL! PikminLink and I were actually getting ready to go to the Nintendo Booth. XD

Heh, you took the 'go lesbian' thing right out of my mouth. I've seen her a couple times at cons. Let's just say, I'd hit that.

Siaarn: May 12th 2006; 8:51AM

PIKMINLINK I LOVE YOU! IN A RESPECTFULL KIND OF WAY! NOT A LESBIAN WAY! .. YEAH. >.>

Pikmin Link: May 12th 2006; 10:31PM

Hehe, that was funny....but what make you think its a bathroom? lol. anyway we were getting ready to be Link and Zelda at the Nintendo booth. I was finished in costume, and was helping my friend with her accessories, and we were asked to look busy.

For people who dont know me or know whats going on, please stop with the really dumb comments =. Anyway, Im not lesbian. But I thank for the nice compliments.
E3 was a ton of fun!

Concerned citizen: seriously dude, that was really stupid. >

Pikmin Link: May 12th 2006; 10:35PM

raging_evil:
