Having never played Zelda II, my first encounter with Dark Link was in "Ocarina of Time." However, I later played "The Adventure of Link" and was a bit confused when I saw him as the final boss.
Immediately, this brought up the question, "Is it the same guy?"
Well in the case of Dark Link from Zelda II, from what I understand he is Link's final test before he can receive the Triforce of Courage from the Triforce Keeper. This means that he had no connection to Ganon's minions who were trying to kill Link, right? Well then why in OoT did he attack Link? The only logical explanation I can think of is that they are separate entities.
Dark Link also makes many other appearances, such as in "Oracle of Ages," "Four Swords," "Spirit Tracks," ect. However, they are not as important as the ones in OoT an AoL. He does make a semi-important appearance in "Twilight Princess" though. In a tale that is told to Link and Midna, a few Dark Links portray the "Dark Interlopers." However, I do not think they have anything to do with them.

So now there are a few questions I'd like to hear your opinions about.
1.) Are there more than one Dark Links? (I say yes.)
2.)If so, are they their own personal beings, or are they created by people such as the Triforce Keeper?
3.)Who created the Dark Link in the Water Temple? Ganondorf?
If you can answer these or have any other questions, post a reply!
