It's really late to add this, but What are your thoughts on a Zelda timeline?

With OoT3D coming out this June and Skyward Sword probably coming out some time by the end of the year, I would like to show my thoughts on the timeline.

The rules are as followed: Split timeline (I'm pretty sure nintendo even admited thet there was a split timeline), no "this doesn't fit so I'm going to put this on a brand new timeline" shit, AND NO GODDAMN CD-I ZELDAS (Zelda Wand of Gamelon, Link Faces of Evil, and Zelda's Adventure weren't even made by Nintendo!)!!!

So here's my timeline:

                                                    Adult /Wind Waker-Phantom Hourglass-Spirit Tracks
Skyward Sword-Minish Cap-Ocarina of Time<
                                                     Child \Majora's Mask-4 Swords-Zelda I-Zelda II\
                                                                                                               4 Swords Adventures
                                                                                                                              |
                                                                                                                  A Link to the Past
                                                                                                                              |
                                                                                                            Oracle of Ages/Seasons
                                                                                                                              |
                                                                                                                   Link's Awakening

I think you can tell the order I placed them in... Anyway! I decided to place Skyward Sword before Minish Cap because of there being a city in the sky in both Minish Cap and Twilight Princess. I think the 4 Swords saga takes place on the child timeline because I placed Minish Cap before Ocarina of Time. I placed A Link to the Past after Zelda II: The Adventure of Link and 4 Swords Adventures because Nintendo claimed that the GBA A Link to the Past's dialog changes were Canon (part of the main story). I put the Oracles after A Link to the Past because the triforce is whole, Ganon is dead (for the most part), Twinrova is still alive in the child timeline, and (Theory of the Trident: Ganon got his trident in 4 Swords Adventures and had it for the rest of the section of the timeline (This would hold the rest of the child timeline in place 100% if this was confirmed, but I have other things that hold it together in large percentages)). Lastly I place my favorite Zelda game: Link's Awakening at the end of the child timeline for a number of reasons: at the "true" end of the oracles Link sets out on a boat instead of going back to Hyrule, The enemies and bosses are very similar to A Link to the Past, it was originally a sequel to A Link to the Past, and the Final Nightmare takes the forms of Aghanim and Ganon (as well as many other bosses from A Link to the Past).

Do you see any flaws? Do you have your own timeline? Please post your own thoughts and/or Ideas on this page .
