I would also like BOTW to get more representation, I haven't played it yet but will be getting it at the end of the month. Part of me still wants the Smash series to have the classic green tunic look for Link, even if it is a costume swap for him. As for weapons, I think they should stick with the Master Sword just because it is a mainstay of the series, and giving Link a ton of different weapons to use in combat would be kind of hectic in my opinion. If they do decide to ditch the Master Sword for the next Smash, I think Link could sport a Traveller's Sword instead, but that would really be about it. Heck, with BOTW having durability on weapons maybe you could even give Link a Robin-esque treatment, having a really powerful sword to use for attacks that would have greater range and kill power but a limited number of uses and then having him fall back on the Traveller's Sword once the other weapon breaks.
