Ok but if they give Link a Lighthawk Sword I quit.

Maybe Nintendo will be adding a new game that will fill in that timeline gap.

I just thought of something. Link to the Past takes place in a timeline where Ganon won. He has the Triforce, Power, Wisdom, and Courage, the whole thing! The power of the gods is at his fingertips. So how was he sealed in the first place if he had the all powerful mcguffin? He could have gotten the Triforce after being sealed, but still if Ganon had the Triforce that should have been it, nothing should have been able to stop him. But the Link of LttP still did it…somehow a little elf boy is more powerful than the golden power of the gods.

Link must be an incarnation of an even greater god, like Tenchi Masaki or something. I mean if they’re going to retcon Zelda as the goddess Hylia (I thought there was only Din, Nayru and Farore) why not.

No, I don’t get it. I mean, Link to the Past’s story begins with something along the lines of, “Ages ago, 7 wise men sealed Ganon in the Dark World.” Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t that seem like EXACTLY what happened at the end of Ocarina?? Doesn’t it make more sense for the original timeline to occur after Adult Link is successful in OoT? Plus, Ganon conquered Hyrule in OoT… sounds an awful lot like a war to me, a.k.a. the Sealing War…. Somehow, the world randomly being destroyed by an as-yet unshown appearance of Ganon seems a bit more farfetched than saying Wind Waker’s timeline occurs after Link is defeated in OoT. Even though it’s canon, I’m not buying this timeline. It makes no sense. I reject your reality, and assert my own.

I don’t think you can refute this timeline since, it’s… y’know… the official one released by Nintendo. Say whatever you want, but they finally came out and said “Hey look, since Skyward Sword is the first game in the series Zelda series (again), let’s eliminate the confusion and give you guys an overview of what the timeline looks like”.
