ganon- power- link is defeated due to ganons power
link- courage- links courage defeats ganon
zelda- wisdom- link is sent back in time to warn hyrule because of zeldas wisdom
I think that it is possible to see a connection in the way that the DT is shaped by Ganondorf (Power), the AT is shaped by Link (Courage) and the CT is shaped by Zelda (Wisdom), but that this has no further impact on the series than being a pleasant coincidence. But Nintendo might have greater plans for this.
You know, that's actually quite interesting, especially the way Kprizzy put it. Even if no official connection exists at all, this is incredibly interesting to say the least.
Interesting, maybe they plan on making 3 games that involve the triforce and have a connected ending thus merging all 3 splits back into one again?? It unlikely but it would be cool.
I highly doubt this was intentional. The Downfall timeline really just seems like Nintendo's method of placing the older games, and the association with the Triforce just comes across as a natural coincidence.
I agree with that, I think that the 3rd split was not intentional at first, but they had trouble putting the older games in placement so they made the 3rd split to put the older games in thus making an easy way out.
