Zelda sounds like an old British lady in the dub version Sad

I'm curious who did the English dub for this Zelda game (never thought I say those words). Was it a British cast?

They get voice acting while the Super Mario games are stuck with voice clips....ones that never seem to get updated.

There, voice acting, finally. That basic feature had been sorely missing since Wind Waker. I am also surprised that the game is rated E-10 but so was Skyward Sword.

Aaaaaand Sunshine's was terrible, though I would genuinely want to see a well-voiced Mario game. I'm interested to see this game's voice acting, but I'm being a little cautious since Link will probably still have an editable name, unless they do what Xenoblade Chronicles X did.

Also, from the narration, I assume this game takes place 100 years after Skyward Sword, and therefore before Minish Cap. EDIT: My bad; it probably takes place right after the Fallen Link ending of Oracina of Time.

The philosophy is still that making Link a mute is what makes people identify with him and the world.

It's what both Matt and Trey Parker cited when making Stick of Truth as justification for keeping the PC mute. They cited Zelda specifically.

Don't really need any of the extra stuff in the "master edition" but I really want that carrying case, so I'l buy it.

I know it's stupid to believe, but can you imagine a dual audio option? I'd buy two copies of the game.
