Did you know that Wolf-Link was in Animal Crossing?

[@theconductoresplin8092]

Tp on switch come on

No I didn’t but that’s dope

No, actually. But that's really cool.

[@jootkujoanimsyt8202]

Woah really?! That’s awesome!

[@midnashadow8439]

I love the fact that the triforce said “yea...let’s make him a furry”

[@travisroach8847]

I think the real question is if he can become a wolf at will with the master sword did he choose to become one again

[@yeahyeah2899]

@@travisroach8847 He cannot, he was only able to do so because Zant put a dark curse into link. Once link removed the curse by coming near The Master sword, there is a cutscene where Midna is holding the dark magic Zant put on Link. So anytime Link wanted to transform into a wolf, Midna would have to let him touch the dark magic. She more than likely took it with her when she went back to the Twilight realm.
