Zelda Timeline Theory (MAJOR Spoilers for all games)

[KentaRawr!]

Lets not forget the wand of Gamelion, and Zeldas Adventure now.

Those don't exist. Shut up.

It could have been an alternative reality.:rolleyes2
When Zelda goes horribly wrong.

Don't forget the faces of evil.

ok i think i get it.

in orcarina of time when link does the time split if he were to continue on that pathway and we saw the years that passed that dimension in time would have eventually lead to the windwaker time.

then a boy who lives in a town that loves the story of link and gannon dresses up in the the legends uniform. he then goes off on his own quest. he is not link or neccesarily related to link. in other words wind waker is kinda not part of the original story.

now at the end of orcarina of time he puts hte master sword back. time moves on the planet continues to change. enter in the twilight princess which im yet to play so i dont know its deal along with minish and 4 swords. but anyways another boy link part of the same timeline as orcarina of time jsut years in the future finds his dads sword and finds the master sword. and so on moves on to the rest of the zeldas which keep on following the events of orcarina of time.

am i right?

Listening to what?

[Ouch!]

I was always under the impression that the Oracle games were noncanonical. Capcom was behind them, right? Anyway, there were other glaring inconsistancies that would conflict with the placement on Sephex's timeline. If I remember correctly, Link had not yet met Zelda, and he just met Impa for the first time at the beginning of the game. I've always just thought of them as something on the side and disregard them when trying to find a timeline for the Zelda series. I feel the same about the Four Swords games, but I've not played those, so maybe I shouldn't judge.

Otherwise, I agree.

[Renmiri]

Excuuuu-uuuuuse me princess!

Link and Kentarou, I agree 100%.

Ganon only got sealed under the sea (WW) when he ruled Hyrule, i.e. Adult Link's timeline "existed".
OoT ends with Link putting the sword back and no Ganon while he is still a kid, so MM and FS have to come from the other timeline, the one Gannon never conquers Hyrule.

The three Zelda Games mentioned above are for the failed CDI system. Because of some licence thing, Phillips made some games for it. But are nothing like the Zelda we know.

[escobert]

I've never really thought about a order to them and just assumed they came out like the Final Fantasy series.

I didn't think that I would need someone to explain this to me, as I already know what they are, and am well aware of how much they suck, but I guess not, since someone doesn't understand sarcasm, nor does he happen to understand that in order to forget that someonething happened, you also need to forget that you forgot, thereby, leading to the natural conclusion that if someone really did forget, they would not know what they forgot.

I'll just go back to good old fashioned blunt humor, you know, the kind that's big and non-subtext.

[Elite Lord Sigma]

If I remember correctly, Nintendo cut the "Unholy Triforce" out of the other Zelda games continuity, so they technically never happened.

[Avarice-ness]

I've heard from lots of people that FF does have a timeline, but as newer games come out, the timeline gets all kinds of screwed up. I never looked into it though.

Otherwise, I agree.

Even though Capcom made those games, it was under supervision of Nintendo. And also, something to consider is that it may just be a different Link, and that's why he hasn't met Impa. And it might even be a different Impa! Personally, I take it to be that it's both, as you can probably tell in my Timeline.

[oddler]

Honestly, it's just one big mess if you ask me. I wish they would say that the games are simply different retellings of "The Legend of Zelda."

Ah, but it is only one big mess if you think about it. Almost all the games don't have to be connected to one another to fully understand the story of that game, so if you feel that considering the timeline is not worthy of your time, then you truly needn't do it to understand the story completely of each game.

Aye, could be a different Link and Impa. I wasn't arguing that point, just saying I didn't agree with where it's placed on the timeline provided. Even though Nintendo was supervising the production of the Oracle games, I just can't help but get the feeling that they're kind of their own thing. It's not really that important, I suppose.
