Some things I have trouble with. First let me list the things that are without a doubt canon, and have support to back them up. The biggest problem I have is that ALttP is after TLoZ. It was promoted as a distant prequel to TLoZ, and therefore it should be place as such. Then there is the problem with Twilight Princess' ganon and Wind Waker's. They are both the same ganon. They are both the original OoT ganon. They also both die. That means that they can't be in the same timeline. These are some things that aren't solid. I would put any Zelda that doesn't have an OoT hyrule after WindWaker until there is proof that something else can cause such a big geographical change. OoT and Majora's mask is definately right due to it being child link in Majora's Mask. |
you are partially right about the twilight princess and wind waker thing, but first lets talk about a link to the past. the game was merchandized as a prequel to TLOZ in america because of the name change, aparently the conservative nintendo at the time didn't allow any of their games(in america) to have the word GOD in the title, so the awesome name "trifotce of the gods" was replaced by the crappy name we know today. the situation is exactly like castlevania 4 in america being a new story and being a prequel in japan, it is one of the sins of localization. about wind waker/twlight princess i admit i comited a mistake earlier by saying ganon totally died, at the beginning of WW it says the evil returned from some other world or something like that, which many of us suppose as to ganon revives in a way. so ganon revives, the world is flooded by the goddeses, years pass and then wind waker.
