Master Timeline Exists for Zelda Series
Apparently, Mr. Aonuma of Zelda fame, was interviewed and gave way to an idea that has been speculated for a very long time by Zelda fans. This idea is that there is a timeline, actually a master timeline, to the Zelda series. The following is the quote from the magazine:
“Yes there is a master timeline but its a confidential document! The only people to have access to that document are myself, Mr. Miyamoto and the director of the title. We cant share it with anyone else! I have already talked to Mr. Miyamoto about this so I am comfortable in releasing this information – this title [Skyward Sword] takes place before Ocarina of Time. if I said that a certain title was ‘the first Zelda game’, then that means that we cant ever make a title that takes place before that! So for us to add titles to the series, we have to have a way of putting the titles before or after each other.”
Sounds great. Now, how do we get our hands on that document?

lol, I love zelda, I really do, but up until wind waker I do not believe there really was ever a timeline for zelda games. I never minded that, I took it with a final fantasy stride. Every link was a new link in a new world. His name being link even helped that notion
