I personally prefer younger Link just because I really can't get into non-top down Zelda games. And because Toon and Young Links are better than regular Links in Smash Bros.
Just to clarify, here are the Zelda games both are in:
Old:
Link 2?
Twilight Princess
Skyward Sword
Young:
Everything Else
Both:
OoT

The Adventures of Link he is the older link, because he was younger in the Original. Also I think Links Awakening he is old link as well... and the Oracle games would be a between the two  |

Yeah, if you go by the opening and ending cutscenes for Link's Awakening, he is more older style Link than younger.
Either way is good to me, really. Because the story of Link can go through various timelines and incarnations, so his history can happen anywhere.
BTW, they still need to make a continuation of the timeline post Zelda 2.

Also I always usually thought of Link as a young teenager even during the original game since the drawings of him seemed to portray him like that moreso than a child... in my opinion. Though I tend to use Old link in Smash. But Young, old... any Link is good Link The Real poll is best Link Hair color OOT Blonde Original Brown or Link to the Past Pink! |

If you go by the artwork, Link in the Adventures of Link is older--a teenager as I recall. The same may be true of him in Legend of Zelda as well.
I remember being confused in OoT at him being a very young child in the beginning. Previous to that, it was always clear to me that he was a teenager.
If we go by my understanding of the series, he's only been a kid in three games in the main series.
Ocarina of Time
Majora's Mask
Wind Waker

I'm the lone person to vote young. Majora's Mask and the original are my favorites, so they just edge out Twilight Princess and Adventure of Link.
