you do realize that this is the same EXACT thing that happens in EVERY zelda game that involves Ganon but many of those games take place hundreds of years apart so why cant the four swords series games do the same thing?
many people put FS infront of ALTTP which means it comes after TP, IMO. at the end of TP, the master sword is stuck inside of a stone ganondorf. taking it out would release ganondorf so they ditch it to use the four sword which is the only sword ever proven to defeat Vaati who is trying to ressurect ganondorf. Vaati can not bring ganondorf back but he CAN bring ganon back. because Link has the four sword he uses it to trap ganondorf in the same chest that Vaati was trapped in.
every zelda game involving Ganon does the same thing as the four sword series and those games have hundreds of years between them so i dont see why MC, FS, and FSA cant. youre argument is really flawed there.
At the end of TP, Ganondorf is not a stone. That is WW. TP, Ganondorf is just stabbed with it. In fact, during the ending credits, we see the Master Sword returned to its pedestal in the forest. That is where your arguement is flawed.
Sure anything can happen every hundred years or so, but the fact is that it does not make sense in that manner. You don't completely abandon one idea and go with another for no reason. At least to me, and I'm sure to anyone else who thinks about it, it does not make sense to say "Oh well, here is Vaati...Link use this Four Sword to beat him, seal him away in this shrine here, and you'll be a hero." Then years later.."Oh well, Vaati escaped...Use this same sword here to seal him back in this shrine." Then all of a sudden nothing happens until Ganondorf appears, does his thing, then the Master Sword is made/used to beat him, while the whole time the shrine, four sword, and Vaati are completely ignored. All of these are new elements not only to the plot, but to Hyrule. It would make sense if they didn't use the Master Sword because it was stuck in Ganondorf's head at the bottom of the sea after WW, but randomly sticking it somewhere between games and plots on the other side of the timeline is both confusing, and dosen't have enough proof to support the idea.
Where is the Shrine of the Four Sword in all of the Zelda titles if MC and FS came before OoT? Why is the Master Sword not used? These questions have yet to be answered and I don't believe you will be able to answer them because there is no information available yet to do so. That is why they can come before or after, in my opinion.
