So let me get this straight:
| Ocarina of Time (1998) | |
| A Link to the Past (1991) | Majora's Mask (2000) |
| Oracle of Seasons (2001) | Twilight Princess (2006) |
| Oracle of Ages (2001) | The Minish Cap (2004) |
| The Wind Waker (2002) | Four Swords (2002) |
| Phantom Hourglass (2007) | Four Swords Adventures (2004) |
| Link's Awakening (1993) | The Legend of Zelda (1986) |
|
The Adventure of Link (1987) |
Aside from the games with an obvious sequel, I just don't see how a timeline is supposed to exist. If Nintendo really had a plan, they wouldn't jump around so much.
Then there is this from Wikipedia about Four Swords:
According to an interview, Eiji Aonuma, a major designer and the director of many games in the Zelda series, considered this game to be the oldest in the timeline, implying that both this and The Minish Cap occur earlier than Ocarina of Time.
That sort of blows up this theory.
