When word came nearly a year ago that Nintendo had released an official timeline in the then Japanese-only Hyrule Historia, many of us were filled with a combo of both excitement and dread. How could Nintendo fit all of the games into a coherent timeline with only one confirmed split (“Adult” and “Child”)? When we finally saw the official timeline it all made sense: there was a third split. And while this helped make sense out of the connecting games…

About a year ago a short fan film relating the Legend of Zelda Timeline to the Back to the Future movie series was created, and it was a great success. The Youtube Video has since garnered almost 500,000 views with nearly 99% of viewers liking the video. The video took a humerus approach at the convoluted Zelda Timeline and tried to make sense of it as only Doctor Emmett Brown can. In late 2011, the crew put up a donation…

A few days back we posted a translated grid of the Zelda Timeline from the Hyrule Historia book, courtesy of our friends over at GlitterBerri. We recently got sent a graphically enhanced version of this same timeline grid, making it closely resemble the grid that was published in the book itself. You can see the preview image to the left, but go ahead and make the jump to check out a larger version. The actual file that was sent to…

We’ve been reporting the last couple of days on the Hyrule Historia book that released in Japan just a few days back. A French fan was able to get his hands on the book and he flipped through it in a 20 minute video. At one point, there was a grid showcasing the now revealed Legend of Zelda Timeline. While it is similar to what we’ve seen for a few posts now, we now have a direct translation from the…

The website GlitterBerri has posted some translations of the newly leaked pages of the Hyrule Historia that feature bits on information on the timeline. These pages give a few more details on how the timeline actually fits together, since it has been difficult to actually figure out how it happened. It gives some new information on why the third split happened and why those events took place. We are also given a few bits on the imprisoning war, among other…

Yesterday we reported on the first translations available for the Hyrule Historia Japanese book. We are surely going to be seeing more scans and translations over the next couple of days, as the book is now available in stores over in Japan. Until then, the folks over at New Nintendo have translated a second page from the initial batch of scans that were posted at History of Hyrule. Of the two pages you see in the image to the left,…

Earlier this year a short fan film relating the Legend of Zelda Timeline to the Back to the Future movie series was created, and it was a great success. The Youtube Video has since garnered over 400,000 views with nearly 99% of viewers liking the video. The video took a humerus approach at the convoluted Zelda Timeline and tried to make sense of it as only Doctor Emmett Brown can. Six months after the release of the initial youtube video,…

Our friends over at History of Hyrule have posted some partial high quality scans of the Hyrule Historia book that is set to release tomorrow in Japan. The book has stirred up a lot of controversy as it is rumored to be a reveal of the Zelda Timeline. While we don’t have too much information just yet, Beno from the Legends Alliance forums has posted a translation of some of the pages. If you make the jump, you can see…

A few days back we reported on a book entitled Hyrule Historia that is set for release on December 21st. The book is being published by Shogakukan, the official publisher for Nintendo of Japan. Recently, a member over at the GameFAQs Forums has translated the table of contents of this book and has discovered somewhat of a secret. Deciphering the translation, it appears that the long sought out Legend of Zelda Timeline will be revealed. You can find the translated…

Whenever you see the words Flawless when it comes to a Zelda Timeline, you immediately start rolling your eyes. The Zelda Timeline has been a subject for debate for nearly 15 years now and with the addition of Skyward Sword, not too much has changed. While Skyward Sword has a specific placement in the timeline that seems crystal clear… it doesn’t remedy many of the problems that the Zelda Timeline has all together. While there were some questions answered with…
