I've heard around that supposedly MM breaks the storyline of OoT (particularly in the Angry Video Game Nerd's Zelda Timeline video.)
The reason people say this is because, in OoT, Link is trapped in the Temple of Time for 7 years and then defeats Ganondorf as an adult. Then Zelda sends him to the past. As a child, he goes to Termina, hence the storyline of MM. So, theoretically, this completely overwrites the storyline of OoT. This is what is usually referred to as the "Timeline Split," right?
Well, I was thinking. And I don't think that's necessarily true. It's possible that instead of being trapped in the Temple of Time for 7 years, instead Link went to Termina and traveled for 7 years, then came back and defeated Ganondorf.
Another idea is that there could have been two Links in the "child timeline." The one who was trapped in the Temple of Time until 7 years later, and then the one that had already defeated Ganondorf and traveled back in time to live his own life.
Well, what do you think?
