Just a thought.
In most Zelda games (A few which are direct sequels, such as Ocarina/Majora excepted) Link isn't actually the same person. It's another boy from another time who was chosen by the goddesses, or, in at least one Link's case (spoilars), wasn't actually chosen but just kind of fell into the role.
There are undertones of reincarnation to the whole thing.
When you take all of that into account, what's to stop the Hero from being born as a girl one time? I really don't see a reason why it can't happen.
I think Nintendo should make at least one Zelda game where Link is female. Think about it. Zelda games are already some of the most critically acclaimed and widely popular games ever made. They have all the best elements of gaming. But as a friend of mine once said of MMORPGs, "If you're going to stare at a character for 100 hours, it might as well be a girl."
I think sales would skyrocket.
