Name: Peter
Home State: New York
Currently Residing In: Utah
Birthday: October 13th, 1985 (I'll always secretly consider the NES to have been a week-late birthday present to me from Nintendo.)
As far as video games go, I've been a gamer since I was two-and-a-half. I try to play whatever interests me, despite what other people think of those games. I don't consider myself to be a "casual" gamer, but I also don't take games unbelievably seriously. They're
games, after all. They're meant to be enjoyed, not obsessed over. I never base whether I buy a game or not on a single review -- I have to try the game for myself to be totally sure.
CURRENT FAVORITES:
Metal Gear Solid Series (PS1, PS2, & PS3)
Fatal Frame Series (PS2, Xbox, Wii)
Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 FES (PS2)
Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 (PS2)
Metroid Prime Trilogy (Wii)
Dead Space (PS3, Xbox 360)
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves (PS3)
Anything Zelda-Related (Various Nintendo Platforms)
My most prized gaming-related possession: A factory-sealed copy of the original Famicom Disk System Zeruda no Densetsu (The Legend of Zelda).
Mario and I were tight back in the day, yo.

Then again, I guess that's why they're the directors.
Yeah, Twilight comes hundreds of years after Ocarina. Majora's is immediate.
On that note, I still say Twilight is the best game in that chart. :-P
And its a good way of keeping their freedom to fuck around without being bound to one of two timelines.
Official or not, I prefer the 'Legend' theory, that they are all the same story, retold and embellished and distorted and broken up and reinterpreted by the passing eons. Y'know, since it's got the word right in the title there, and they mostly involve the same main components. In my world, it goes like this:
The Zelda Stories: Skyward, OoT, Wind Waker, LttP, Twilight, LoZ, AoL
The Feats of Link: Minish, Four Swords, Majora's, Handheld Installments
Simple, mix 'em up however you want. It doesn't matter, 'cause it's a Legend, baby!
What about Zelda II?
Did you guys ever watch the Gametrailers retrospective around the release of TP? Their two timeline scenario made a lot of sense at the time and was kind of close. Actually that entire video series was awesome and I only wanted to mention it because this blog brought back memories :D
I always liked that, too. The adult and child timelines were confirmed by Aonuma way back before Twilight Princess came out - It's the failure one that's getting the attention right now.
I guess the "failure" timeline it is then!
It's listed as "The Adventure of Link".
Yeah, the third timeline only exists because they're not related to Ocarina of Time, so they got shoved there.
The timeline actually worked out fantastically.
