Jonnas Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 After hours of long research, we've reached the consensus that Sheik is genderless. Good. On-Topic, it seems the hackers found unfinished character data, including on Mewtwo and Roy. Now a "leaker" says these two are going to somehow be playable in the western versions. Maybe they're alternate costumes that haven't been unlocked yet? Seriously, anything to deviate from the Sheik topic.
Falcon_BlizZACK Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 Actually that's THE official artwork of OOT shiek, so don't talk bullshit. Wow....Jumping to narrow minded conclusions just because you don't like anyone elses say in the matter; very grown up. Sheik being male/female is neither fact nor opinion without official say so. Zelda's using a magical disguise, so before you go jumping to your guns just because someone believes Zelda transforms into a man, just remember that people can believe, with reason, what they want. Your argument is amazingly flawed, you're shooting down what people think without even thinking, and in fact, without seeing a cock/**** on Shiek, or without official say so from Miyamoto or similar, you can't say that it's a FACT she/he's anything. :bowdown:
Mike Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 Can't we just agree that in OOT, we are led to believe that Sheik is male before the reveal near the end of the game. Whether or not Zelda turns into a man during this transformation is kept deliberately ambiguous - Sheik may or may not have been male, but the fact that the disguise is magical (and can change skin and eye colour) doesn't rule it out completely. Sheik is now officially female, but this doesn't mean this was always the case. Like Birdo, who is now officially female, and was once considered male by Nintendo. Agree?

Shino Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 I do not. You said it yourself, it is revealed in the end of OOT that Sheik is in fact Zelda. Ok so they changed the eye colour to red too look less obvious, but I doubt they Nintendo intended to be on the cutting edge of transsexual awareness by giving her a sex change. Its ok to call her a "He" as I do sometimes or call Samus "Metroid", or Link "Zelda", but it still doesn't change the facts.
Dyson Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 I always thought Tails was a girl when I was young.
martinist Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 We didn't come here to discuss Zelda's sexual orientation. Zork: ......"I did"
Nintendohnut Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 What about when Link tranforms into a wolf in TP? What happens to his clothes? Why doesn't his earrings tranform? You all wanna know why? 'Cause it's MAGIC! Its more confirmed that Sheik is female than male as all official people use the term she when referring to Sheik PLUS SHEIK HAS BOOBS Why would Zelda change to a dude? These are absolutely awesome and hilarious. I bow to you all :bowdown: :bowdown: (one each, y'see)

My source is with the american build and was in the first place and clearly said Mewtwo was only a trophy

somme Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 Ok so they changed the eye colour to red too look less obvious. If she can change her eye colour at will who says she can't grow a cock? And don't tell me it's contact lenses - I don't remember seeing Boots in Kakariko Village.
Shino Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 I'm not saying she can't grow a cock, I'm saying she has no reason to.
Deathborn Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 And if she's able to make such drastic and useless chnage, why just not completely change her face instead of hiding it?
Nintendohnut Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 LOL! Oh that's actually a really good outlook on it: If you were gonna pretend to be a man, would you use your magic to make you look like one? Or would you go the whole hog and grow a ding-dang? I would have thought most girls would go for the 'disguise' option rather than have a cock. Subtitle: What do you want me to do? LEAVE?! Then they'll keep being wrong! Thankyou xkcd. Thankyou.

No way. Every girl wants a cock! Proven facts. *cough*
Cube Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 On top of that. Isn't Tetra essentially exactly the same change (just for a different Zelda and with less control)?
Nintendohnut Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 Haha yeah every girl you ask will say that. What do you mean I shouldn't be asking girls that? In fact, why not turn into a parrot? Or some other animal? Why a man? Surely if there was a man dressed in ninja clothes stood next to a parrot, Ganondorf would get there and be like "Well I know which one is the bigger threat here!", attack the ninja man, meanwhile parrot flies off, bye bye Zelda, best disguise ever.
FalcoLombardi Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 I'm just going to start walking up to random girls asking them if they would want a penis. However, this may be taken the wrong way and I could be arrested for many accounts of sexual harassment.
Ike Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 Ngamer reviewed the Japanese version with a score of 93%.
Hellfire Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 I'm not saying she can't grow a cock, I'm saying she has no reason to. Another one to my sig! XD
Goron_3 Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 It's a sad day when a bunch of internet nerds spend their time arguing over whether a cross-dressed video game character from a game about elfs and pixies is a women or not. (btw she's a he, duh!).
Nintendohnut Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 Well if now you're just being mean *sniffs and runs off into the corner* ANYWAY...Brawl?
Guest Maase Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 Oh my god, why the hell are people obsessed about Sheik Gender? You all look like pervs xD Or you're just trying to get right without facts X_X
EchoDesiato Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 Good thing Krystal isn't in the game. I wouldn't want to see want kind of talk there'd be in this thread in that case.
