im sure back in the NES/SNES days Nitendo did not have much thought into a time line in the for the LOZ games, not until OOT came on the N64 and MM and WW on the game cube the Fans have seance Debated about a possible split or linear time line, seems like then Nintendo has caught on to this and then started making games on these timelines to fill in major gaps that each story told, MM was originally going to be apart of OOT with the N64DD but seance the 64DD failed they did turn it into a full game and made it into a Direct sequel to OOT, i think thats when Nitendo started working the time line out putting MM on the child timeline, but wasent too shure about WW or the other previous Zelda games. and from their started working on other games that continued the story around others because fans were wondering and asking Nintendo about a possible timeline. so out of curiosity Do you think the timeline helped shaped what the Zelda stories are. or Like mario would Zelda be more of a random story with no connection to their previous games with out an idea of a time line? Personally i think the idea of the timeline helped shaped the Series dramatically, and not until they had enough games to connect them did they release their official statement about it ( HH) what do you think?
