Night 1
Hello, hello... hello? Uh, a while ago Nintendo released the official Legend of Zelda timeline chart placing each of it's games accordingly to their respectful setting. Uh, so I've been meaning to ask this question for a while now but uh, wasn't able to find a good forum until now, plus I've been busy fending off against spirit infested animatronics, uh, but I'm here now so I'll go ahead and say what I need to say uh.
So uh, if we take a look at the timeline: http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media...l_progressive,q_80,w_636/18j0yyebco7eqjpg.jpg
You'll see that there is a gap between Skyward Sword and Ocarina of Time filled by 2 other games being uh; Minish Cap followed by Four Swords. Now uh, when Skyward Sword got unveiled uh I remember hearing that it would take place 100 years before the events of Ocarina Time, which isn't a lot if you think about it. There seem to be a clear pattern of 100 year gaps between some of the games such as TP being 100 years after OoT/MM and ST 100 years after WW/PH. Uh, you'll know why I'm reminding you of this in a bit.
So if we go back to the 100 year gap between SS and OoT you'll notice Minish Cap and Four Swords, so within that time period, shouldn't some of the Links still be alive and around? The Link from Skyward Sword for example, wasn't confirmed to a specific age but is said to be the oldest Link in the franchise. Since the Links range from 9-19, if we assume that the SS Link is 19 at the most and that it's following game Minish Cap takes place 50 years later then that would only make the SS Link 69 years old by the time, and uh, I doubt that he'd be dead by then. And if we do the same with the other Links such as the one from Minish Cap and the one from Four Swords at least one of them is bound to be alive during the era of another Link.
Uh, I'd also like to remind that nowhere is it confirmed that it's the same entity for every Link just that they are different incarnations of the same character. For example uh; the Link from Twilight Princess is the descendent of the Hero of Time, the Link from OoT/MM. and they are separate entities as evidenced when the TP Link encounters the OoT/MM Link's spirit.
Sadly uh, none of the Links ever manage to encounter each other (mostly because most of the games are released in reverse chronological order), but the fact that Nintendo decided to make the games so close to each other means that at least one of the Links must be alive in another game. It's mostly likely that the uh, character is off to another land by the time since at the end of practically of game Link decides to uh, set off somewhere.
Oh yeah and uh, this would go for every other character as well. But uh, tell me what you guys think I'm curious to uh, hear what you want to say and uh, watch those cameras and have a good nights, i'll see you all tomorrow.
