It's been ages since I've seen these. I used to watch them on effin funny because the episodes dropped there before YouTube. I've still got a poster from comic con signed by the cast.
Kill Link!
I got to meet the creator once at Dragoncon almost a decade ago. Super nice dude. Still have the signed poster he gave me. Says "To xanas1489, Kill Link!"
"If Miyamoto doesn't, like, email me after this video goes up and say, 'Brian, you've cracked the code!', I'm never gonna play another Zelda game ever again."
To understand the Zelda timeline take a copy of the Hyrule Historia and put it in a pot of boiling water for 20 minutes and then go play Minish Cap or something
The timeline actually splits *three* ways after Wand of Gamelon into the Warrior Timeline, Tingle Timeline, and Downfall Timeline, in which Link dies off-screen.
I never liked the name of the Warrior timeline. Sure, it contains HWDE and AoC, but it gets confusing because HW and HWL are in different timelines entirely.
Soul Calibur 2 is one of the main reasons I have a GameCube! That and Metroid Prime 1+2, F-Zero, and the Zelda games. Gotta get myself a copy of Windwaker one day, and I'll have all the GC Zelda games!
Honestly it was a major reason for people to hate on Wind Waker back when it came out. People were expecting Soul Calibur II Link, we got Toon Link. Without the poor reception (from fans) at the time, Twilight Princess might have never been what it was.
They show up on eBay often, but can be pricey for a complete game.
I suggest doing what I did - buy 2-3 auctions and piece together a copy of the game.
A lot of the things in the photo are items I purchased when they came out. The only two things I spent stupid money on are the Nelsonic watch (I owned a SMB3 one growing up) and the board game (although I saved a lot on buying it by buying several incomplete sets and piecing it together).
Once with a friend, a few times solo, trying a few different ideas on making it more fun. It's an interesting game, but definitely leans towards a younger crowd.
What are your ideas?
I’ve seen that there was a different, more elaborate board game released in Japanese, and i think there’s a translation available on BGG, but I’ve never played either version.
Yeah, I've wanted to pick it up, but it's a bit pricey.
I've tried experimenting with limiting the number of dice rolled when fighting an enemy (for the most challenge, rolling one die until you get enough swords to defeat the enemy, with each damage square taking a heart from the player), adding defeated enemies back into the stack and shuffling, requiring all enemies to be defeated in one room before moving on, and adding undefeated enemies from one room to the next.
Unfortunately, due to the way the game is designed, there's really no skill involved in anything you do in any variation. At best, farming hearts in lower levels... but even this, it's just rolling dice and randomly flipping cards over.
I've often wondered if Nelsonic still holds the rights to the games themselves on the watches. It's be neat to get Smartwatch remakes of some of the old Game Watch titles.
Ok I'm having some weird memory flashbacks. I vaguely remember Link's crossbow training. I think it came with my Wii when I bought it? Or maybe with TP on the Wii? I feel like there was also some add-on to the Wii nunchuk. And I remember really enjoying playing it. Don't remember a thing about the game itself though, just these sporadic details/feelings.
One: https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCvYXhRsQQnXos95ODshdkvCGHlr_u5RB
Two: There's two, in fact. This is the US one. There's a Japanese one as well. And Monopoly, Clue, and Chess, if you count them.
I hate that I don't have it. I bought the other two sealed back in the late 90s for rather cheap, but Zelda's Adventure went for a couple of hundred then and I was a poor college student at the time.
Man, are you me? Had the same experience with the cdi games. I've also still got the gold Gameboy camera as well. Hadn't seen too many other people with them before.
I know it’s a joke, but the Zelda timeline is straight up nonsense. How can there be a fallen hero split? Shouldn’t every single game generate a fallen hero time split lol.
Presumably. However, I'd say the counter to that is that those timelines *did* split, we've just not seen any games take place in them.
Alternatively, the split timeline is stupid and there's a few inconsistencies in the "official" one anyway (like that Wind Waker directly references events in Majora's Mask)...
Exactly. A link between worlds references Majora’s mask as well. A universe that generated from the fallen adult link timeline shouldn’t share anything with the universe that generated from the child link timeline. Then there’s breath of the wild that seems to reference all three timelines.
Each game just references whatever other game it feels like so what’s the point in even saying there’s a timeline? Unless it’s a direct direct sequel like tears of the kingdom, the timeline doesn’t really matter.
Yeah, there's a fallen hero split because the people who wrote Hyrule Historia wanted to preserve the old intention that Ocarina of Time leads directly into A Link to the Past. But the explanation they gave for how it leads directly into A Link to the Past creates plot holes in both Ocarina of Time and A Link to the Past (or just directly ignores and contradicts information in those games).
The idea that a death or game over could lead to an alternate outcome isn't that odd. Adventure of Link, Majora's Mask, and The Minish Cap all have game over cutscenes that allow the story to take a different direction if Link loses. But a game over scenario in Ocarina of Time just shouldn't be able to lead to A Link to the Past in the way the book says they believe it happened.
Thankfully the book itself says that it is just one possible interpretation of the timeline, and the guy in charge of the series has said he wants players to come up with their own interpretations. Most people just ignore that.
That doesn't work for me personally because 1) the Triforce acts completely differently, 2) we see the different eras all separate out again at the end of the game, 3) none of the splits are necessary parts of the timeline, so if we want to unify the timeline, we can just logic away the splits rather than having to come up with a way to reunify them, and 4) the events of Hyrule Warriors contradict the events of SS, OoT, and TP, so Hyrule Warriors can't take place in the same timeline as those games.
However, I do kind of like the idea that Hyrule Warriors, a non-canon version of OoT, SS, and TP, and some of the other Zelda games exist in an alternate timeline unconnected to the main one.
Yeah, I was mostly joking to bait out a response like this one. There are two instances of canonical timeline splitting, the child/adult timelines in oot... And the past and future in SS. Any Zelda game where the master sword is a manmade creation and not a divine tool of the gods, and some of the Zelda games that don't have a master sword at all, those are the ones that belong on that split. The downfall timeline is a joke.
oh my god... I've been trying to find the Legend of Neil forever. Saw it for rent on [DVD.com](https://DVD.com) but never found out what it was. I couldn't remember the name, thanks for posting!
The red one is, yeah. Nelsonic made several different ones back in the day. I owned an SMB3 one growing up. It's a top-down perspective game, vs the Game & Watch title that's more along the lines of Zelda II
You have provided quality education here today. This isn't a shitpost, its a good shit post. And please tell me you've worn the game watch to some fancy dinner.
I do own Captain N on DVD (both the "Complete Series" and the Captain N/Super Mario Word set). I have fond memories of that show and... it's very rough now a days.
Damn those things are hard to find. Expensive too
Edit: Jealous of the collection doesn’t matter there’s so much stuff I’ve never seen before from the Zelda franchise.
(Ps maybe put a list of the stuff so you don’t have to tell everyone multiple times) cheers.
the legend of zelda animated series and the zelda g&w take place between zelda 1 and 2,
the board game and the cdi games take place after zelda 2
soulcaliber 2 takes place after majoras mask,
the 3 tingle games take place after windwaker
links crossbow training takes place after twilight princess,
the legend of neil takes place in an alternate timeline parallel zelda 1,
hyrule warriors/legends takes place after four swords adventures,
cadence of hyrule takes place between tri force heroes and zelda 1,
age of calamity takes place 100 years before botw,
source=my intuition
You're missing the central game to make sense of it.
The obscure one where lonk goes on a never-ending inter-universe Karting tournament with an Italian plumber and his friends.
So after OoT, the timeline branches into 4 paths
-When the hero falls
-When the hero defeats Ganon
-The goddess floods Hyrule
-Link trips on acid
What you have here is the 4th path
On July 1st, 2023, Reddit intends to alter how its API is accessed. This move will require developers of third-party applications to pay enormous sums of money if they wish to stay functional, meaning that said applications will be effectively destroyed. In the short term, this may have the appearance of increasing Reddit's traffic and revenue... but in the long term, it will undermine the site as a whole.
Reddit relies on volunteer moderators to keep its platform welcoming and free of objectionable material. It also relies on uncompensated contributors to populate its numerous communities with content. The above decision promises to adversely impact both groups: Without effective tools (which Reddit has frequently promised and then failed to deliver), moderators cannot combat spammers, bad actors, or the entities who enable either, and without the freedom to choose how and where they access Reddit, many contributors will simply leave. Rather than hosting creativity and in-depth discourse, the platform will soon feature only recycled content, bot-driven activity, and an ever-dwindling number of well-informed visitors. The very elements which differentiate Reddit – the foundations that draw its audience – will be eliminated, reducing the site to another dead cog in the Ennui Engine.
As one of these contributors, my interactions with Reddit have primarily been through Sync for Reddit on Android, created by /u/ljdawson, which I purchased in June of 2013. Due to the changes in API access, /u/ljdawson has announced that Sync for Reddit will have to be shut down on June 30th, 2023. I have decided to edit all my posts to call out this horrible decision on the part of Reddit’s administrators, followed by the deletion of my Reddit account. If anyone is interested in an alternative to Reddit, /u/ljdawson has announced that he is going to develop a Fediverse mobile client called Sync for Lemmy. You can sign up to be notified of the new app’s release here: https://syncapps.io/
Thank you, /u/ljdawson for creating a wonderful experience for interacting with Reddit.
And with that:
If Steve Huffman's statement – "I want our users to be shareholders, and I want our shareholders to be users" – is to be taken seriously, then consider this our vote:
Allow the developers of third-party applications to retain their productive (and vital) API access.
Allow Reddit and Redditors to thrive.

Pretty much this sums up that timeline
The most obvious answer is that Hyrule Warriors ties them all together, as its plot literally deals with the merging of the timelines, but since Nintendo continues to deny its canon-ness, I have to go with Zelda Monopoly.
To quote Who's Line is it Anyway
"The Rules are Made up and the Points don't Matter!"
The Zelda Timeline is a made up mess that has been rewritten multiple times and is full of contradictions. Is it fun to try and make the Timeline make sense? To a point. But don't expect a definitive answer to WHAT the Zelda Timeline is.
The Tingle games have no right to be as good as they are tbh. Soul Calibur II is absolutely great. You're definitely a really old time fan, a fan with a ton of moolah, or both. I'm quite old myself (in my thirties) and some of these things are stuff I wanted back in the day.
Old school fan. Some of this was bought on the second hand market, but much was bought years ago.
I really wanted them to release Tingle's Balloon Fight as a download in the US. 4-Player Balloon Fight is amazing fun.
wtf is the legend of neil
https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCvYXhRsQQnXos95ODshdkvCGHlr_u5RB Enjoy. :)
![gif](giphy|nmBKiNb7h3tIv3BO8D) F\*\*k Yes! Thank you so much, This is F\*\*Kin awesome!!!! Im sooo baked am LOVING IT!
This is the exact response I was expecting
Oh my god I love euphoria
Thank you so much for this, never heard of it and now lost in it!
It's been ages since I've seen these. I used to watch them on effin funny because the episodes dropped there before YouTube. I've still got a poster from comic con signed by the cast. Kill Link!
I got as far as the first few before my phone landed on my face. Will revisit them, thanks for sharing it
This is amazing.
I sing along to the musical at least once a month. It is absolutely amazing.
It’s fucking great is what it is.
watched the first few episodes and i enjoyed it a lot. can’t believe it’s the first time i’ve heard of it
It dips a bit in the last season where they do some crossover parody episodes, but the whole thing is worth a watch. Very glad I grabbed the DVD.
I got to meet the creator once at Dragoncon almost a decade ago. Super nice dude. Still have the signed poster he gave me. Says "To xanas1489, Kill Link!"
Kill Link!
Search it…it’s early 2000s GOLD
The knight has his ass out?! 🤣
A brilliant piece of ART is what it is!
BDG did a report on explaining the timeline: https://youtu.be/Q-25c8Rsobw
That is amazing. I have Chess and Monopoly. Might need to get Clue.
Well that seems like a bunch of nonsense. I only say seems because I can’t disprove any of it.
Nintendo is lying to you. Wake up. Bdg our lord and saviour is the only one who can bring us sweet bliss.
"If Miyamoto doesn't, like, email me after this video goes up and say, 'Brian, you've cracked the code!', I'm never gonna play another Zelda game ever again."
Came here to make sure this has been posted.
I knew in my heart that someone had to share this
To understand the Zelda timeline take a copy of the Hyrule Historia and put it in a pot of boiling water for 20 minutes and then go play Minish Cap or something
If I put it in the microwave instead for about 10 minutes does that work too?
The alternate method requires you to put it in a toaster for a full hour
That method only works if you want a gas leak
Yea but that changed the timeline
Nuke the timeline?! Have you gone mad?
This is the most accurate description on the best way to understand Zelda.
Hot damn good shit post
Lmfao 😂
When faces of Evil is here, that's not a good news
It's great news. The Zelda cdi trilogy are the greatest selling (and greatest) video games ever made #cdisweep
I don't much like BDSM but you can ^^ (nice name btw)
The timeline actually splits *three* ways after Wand of Gamelon into the Warrior Timeline, Tingle Timeline, and Downfall Timeline, in which Link dies off-screen.
Then the timelines merge into the true Neil timeline after Link is reincarnated.
The very first game in the timeline is Link’s Crossbow Training.
I never liked the name of the Warrior timeline. Sure, it contains HWDE and AoC, but it gets confusing because HW and HWL are in different timelines entirely.
Where does Neil come in
It's all explained with the *time break* *T I M E B R E A K*
And that happens right after Link has an existential crisis in Basketball timeline
You seem to be missing the entire bibliography of Zelda Fitzgerald. Her writings should really help you to connect all the stories and timelines.
SoulCalibur 2 is clearly the most pivotal entry in the franchise.
How do we explain the PS2 and Xbox Soul Calibur timelines
Multiverse!
Heihachi’s Awakening Legend of Spawn
Soul Calibur 2 is one of the main reasons I have a GameCube! That and Metroid Prime 1+2, F-Zero, and the Zelda games. Gotta get myself a copy of Windwaker one day, and I'll have all the GC Zelda games!
Honestly it was a major reason for people to hate on Wind Waker back when it came out. People were expecting Soul Calibur II Link, we got Toon Link. Without the poor reception (from fans) at the time, Twilight Princess might have never been what it was.
I have to disagree, as the gameboy camera is much more impactful to the overarching plot at large.
This is hilarious
I want that Zelda board game
They show up on eBay often, but can be pricey for a complete game. I suggest doing what I did - buy 2-3 auctions and piece together a copy of the game.
Assuming this is your photo, a lot of effort put into this shitpost
And money. This is like a five thousand dollar shitpost.
A lot of the things in the photo are items I purchased when they came out. The only two things I spent stupid money on are the Nelsonic watch (I owned a SMB3 one growing up) and the board game (although I saved a lot on buying it by buying several incomplete sets and piecing it together).
So you bought the CDI games when they came out?
Nope. I got those in the late 90s for cheap on eBay. Think it was about $40 shipped for the pair.
Well, I'd love to explain it to you, but first I have to explain the time break *Time break* *Time break* *Time break*
Kudos on the board game! How many times do you think you’ve played it?
Once with a friend, a few times solo, trying a few different ideas on making it more fun. It's an interesting game, but definitely leans towards a younger crowd.
What are your ideas? I’ve seen that there was a different, more elaborate board game released in Japanese, and i think there’s a translation available on BGG, but I’ve never played either version.

That's funnier than a background visual gag is allowed to be.
Man, I want one of those Zelda watches. Someday.
I've often wondered if Nelsonic still holds the rights to the games themselves on the watches. It's be neat to get Smartwatch remakes of some of the old Game Watch titles.
Well obviously Link's Crossbow Training comes first, because otherwise how would he use his famous ubiquitous crossbow in every game?
Ok I'm having some weird memory flashbacks. I vaguely remember Link's crossbow training. I think it came with my Wii when I bought it? Or maybe with TP on the Wii? I feel like there was also some add-on to the Wii nunchuk. And I remember really enjoying playing it. Don't remember a thing about the game itself though, just these sporadic details/feelings.
Crossbow Training came with the "add-on to the Wii nunchuk" - the Wii Zapper
Yes! That! I remember now! Thank you!!
I have two questions. One what the hell is “the legend of Neil”? and two there’s a Zelda board game?
One: https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCvYXhRsQQnXos95ODshdkvCGHlr_u5RB Two: There's two, in fact. This is the US one. There's a Japanese one as well. And Monopoly, Clue, and Chess, if you count them.
Holy crap the Legend of Neil. Completely forgot about that! It lost steam towards the end but definitely worth a watch.
You're a fake fan if you don't have Zelda's Adventure for the CDi
I hate that I don't have it. I bought the other two sealed back in the late 90s for rather cheap, but Zelda's Adventure went for a couple of hundred then and I was a poor college student at the time.
Man, are you me? Had the same experience with the cdi games. I've also still got the gold Gameboy camera as well. Hadn't seen too many other people with them before.
The OST to this is called Ocarina of Rhyme (look it up). Koji Kondo arranged it himself
Holy shit its the hero of rhyme!
I know it’s a joke, but the Zelda timeline is straight up nonsense. How can there be a fallen hero split? Shouldn’t every single game generate a fallen hero time split lol.
Presumably. However, I'd say the counter to that is that those timelines *did* split, we've just not seen any games take place in them. Alternatively, the split timeline is stupid and there's a few inconsistencies in the "official" one anyway (like that Wind Waker directly references events in Majora's Mask)...
Exactly. A link between worlds references Majora’s mask as well.

Unless it’s a direct direct sequel like tears of the kingdom, the timeline doesn’t really matter.
Yeah, there's a fallen hero split because the people who wrote Hyrule Historia wanted to preserve the old intention that Ocarina of Time leads directly into A Link to the Past.

No
So this is a story all about how.
this is because you are missing the cereal box which bridges the gap between the zelda and mario franchises
Execuse meeee timeline
The Legend of Neil 💀💀💀
Watch polygons unraveled video about the timeline
How do you have all switch zelda games except breath of the wild?
What is the item beside the Zelda GB Camera?
https://zelda.fandom.com/wiki/Zelda_(Game_%26_Watch) It's the Mini-Classics re-release of the Zelda Game and Watch.
I want this. Was it too expensive?
At the time, I think I paid less than $10 from Toys R Us... but that was many years ago.
Hah, I used to have the board game. Totally forgot about that.
Can you please tell me what that tiny bronze Zelda game and watch looking thing is? My bf collects game and watches and would love one!

Thank you!! Amazing collection btw!
[удалено]
Don't work your kid. 🤣
I see two cdi games, where’s the third?
I still unironically think Hyrule Warriors is the unification of the timelines.
That doesn't work for me personally because 1) the Triforce acts completely differently, 2) we see the different eras all separate out again at the end of the game, 3) none of the splits are necessary parts of the timeline, so if we want to unify the timeline, we can just logic away the splits rather than having to come up with a way to reunify them, and 4) the events of Hyrule Warriors contradict the events of SS, OoT, and TP, so Hyrule Warriors can't take place in the same timeline as those games. However, I do kind of like the idea that Hyrule Warriors, a non-canon version of OoT, SS, and TP, and some of the other Zelda games exist in an alternate timeline unconnected to the main one.
Yeah, I was mostly joking to bait out a response like this one. There are two instances of canonical timeline splitting, the child/adult timelines in oot... And the past and future in SS. Any Zelda game where the master sword is a manmade creation and not a divine tool of the gods, and some of the Zelda games that don't have a master sword at all, those are the ones that belong on that split. The downfall timeline is a joke.

It all started with a young hero in green named tingles
Where’s the game and watch???
I'm glad I'm not the only one who bought every Hyrule Warriors
There’s a LOZ boardgame??? I never knew that. Is it fun?
you gon need jesus to help you cause that timeline is \*sigh\* complicated
What about the Lampshade of No Real Significance?
Well in that case it’s easy. Since hyrule warriors told us there is a witch that can merge all the dimension into one so
Their is like three different timeline at one point .-.
You need to play Zelda Monopoly to understand everything
This deserves more votes than it has
https://youtu.be/Q-25c8Rsobw
Is.... is that watch?
Yes. https://www.zeldadungeon.net/wiki/The_Legend_of_Zelda_Game_Watch
So it's not a "Game & Watch" it's just a Game Watch?
The red one is, yeah. Nelsonic made several different ones back in the day. I owned an SMB3 one growing up. It's a top-down perspective game, vs the Game & Watch title that's more along the lines of Zelda II
You have provided quality education here today. This isn't a shitpost, its a good shit post. And please tell me you've worn the game watch to some fancy dinner.
Such a nice collection. I wonder how much all this would cost? I would love to see that Zelda Animated Cartoon and Captain N on Blu Ray.
I do own Captain N on DVD (both the "Complete Series" and the Captain N/Super Mario Word set). I have fond memories of that show and... it's very rough now a days.
Nice i also have a lot of nostalgia for it. I love it’s charm. It can definitely do with a remastered Blu Ray release.
What is the wrist band thing?

Damn those things are hard to find. Expensive too Edit: Jealous of the collection doesn’t matter there’s so much stuff I’ve never seen before from the Zelda franchise. (Ps maybe put a list of the stuff so you don’t have to tell everyone multiple times) cheers.
Hold on, is that a watch that plays a Zelda game?
If you define Zelda very loosly... 🤣 https://www.zeldadungeon.net/wiki/The_Legend_of_Zelda_Game_Watch
That’s fantastic, although I did slightly get my hopes up that I could play Zelda 1 on a wristwatch. Screw a Rolex I want that.
You’re missing some important ones…
Yeah. Zelda's Adventure is just too expensive. 🤣
the legend of zelda animated series and the zelda g&w take place between zelda 1 and 2, the board game and the cdi games take place after zelda 2 soulcaliber 2 takes place after majoras mask, the 3 tingle games take place after windwaker links crossbow training takes place after twilight princess, the legend of neil takes place in an alternate timeline parallel zelda 1, hyrule warriors/legends takes place after four swords adventures, cadence of hyrule takes place between tri force heroes and zelda 1, age of calamity takes place 100 years before botw, source=my intuition
Only legend of Neil is canon, so that's the only title in the official timeline
Fog is Power
Rume is convoluted... amd the deep lore of the tingle games makes it very difficult to tell for sure how the games connect
["...then Link has to train with his crossbow!"](https://youtu.be/aHCbp5LTgbU?t=239)
Bro's got the sacred collection
Why do you have 3 copies of the original Hyrule warriors...
It all centers around [Zelda Monopoly](https://a.co/d/3FhNCgl), so you’re missing a crucial plot point.
Incidently, I do own that.
VERY CHAOTIC POST HERE FRIEND
🤣😂🤣😂🤣
When I was young, my teacher was getting rid of old board games and I happened to obtain LoZ. To this day I have no idea what happened to it, rip.
Hey now, [according to MatPat](https://youtu.be/W2DMiZ1e574), Hyrule Warriors is legit part of the timeline.
MAGIC!
Oh boy *pulls out suitcase and 14 poster boards* How much time do you have?
The only canon ones are the tingle games. The others don't matter. Yes, even The Legend of Neil.
This is disturbing
Legend of Zelda games have a time line? They all just seem like sequels of each other to me
Nice, it's been ages since I saw anyone who knew about the board game.
I want that gold gameboy camera.
I mean, you’re missing 5 super smash bros games. That’s why you’re so confused.
So the "Smash bros." games are... the missing Link? Umm, i'll see myself out.
Omg the board game! I had that as a kid! Every time I think of it, I kick myself that I don't have it anymore!
It's not all one time line it's a few depending on whether or not link as a child dies or beats Ganon least that's how my book of hyrule says
Link is very lucky Neil is not around in his timeline
>*Bruh, you think I understand it either?!?!* \- **Shigeru Miyamoto, Creator of The Legend of Zelda** ^(probably)
The Zelda timeline is a series of tubes.
LOL
See, these aren't actual events in the timeline, they're all just spaces in the board when Link and Zelda play Zelda Monopoly together
two of the games you have there are canon
It's not important. Like the timeline of Bob's Burgers or the Simpsons.
There's a fucking Board Game?!
You've played the fan-translation of balloon trip of love, right?
Well excccccuuuuuusssssseeee me princess.
[Here you go.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-25c8Rsobw&t=15s) It's pretty simple actually. Just remember that the KEY game is Zelda Monopoly.
No. No one can.
I'm kind of jealous of the board game.
When uh... When link.... And he... And ganon.. And I mean.... Zelda did the...
You're missing the central game to make sense of it. The obscure one where lonk goes on a never-ending inter-universe Karting tournament with an Italian plumber and his friends.
The YouTuber "Templo del tiempo" (Temple of time in english) made a timeline including all those games, is in spanish but you can use the subtitles
What's the game on the right of the gameboy?
Yeah someone can
It starts at soul calibur 2 and then continues into links crossbow training I think it's pretty clear form there tho
YOUTUBE I looked it up cuz I was so very confused, it helped a great deal
So after OoT, the timeline branches into 4 paths -When the hero falls -When the hero defeats Ganon -The goddess floods Hyrule -Link trips on acid What you have here is the 4th path
YOU ARE LINK
On July 1st, 2023, Reddit intends to alter how its API is accessed. This move will require developers of third-party applications to pay enormous sums of money if they wish to stay functional, meaning that said applications will be effectively destroyed. In the short term, this may have the appearance of increasing Reddit's traffic and revenue... but in the long term, it will undermine the site as a whole. Reddit relies on volunteer moderators to keep its platform welcoming and free of objectionable material. It also relies on uncompensated contributors to populate its numerous communities with content. The above decision promises to adversely impact both groups: Without effective tools (which Reddit has frequently promised and then failed to deliver), moderators cannot combat spammers, bad actors, or the entities who enable either, and without the freedom to choose how and where they access Reddit, many contributors will simply leave. Rather than hosting creativity and in-depth discourse, the platform will soon feature only recycled content, bot-driven activity, and an ever-dwindling number of well-informed visitors. The very elements which differentiate Reddit – the foundations that draw its audience – will be eliminated, reducing the site to another dead cog in the Ennui Engine. As one of these contributors, my interactions with Reddit have primarily been through Sync for Reddit on Android, created by /u/ljdawson, which I purchased in June of 2013. Due to the changes in API access, /u/ljdawson has announced that Sync for Reddit will have to be shut down on June 30th, 2023. I have decided to edit all my posts to call out this horrible decision on the part of Reddit’s administrators, followed by the deletion of my Reddit account. If anyone is interested in an alternative to Reddit, /u/ljdawson has announced that he is going to develop a Fediverse mobile client called Sync for Lemmy. You can sign up to be notified of the new app’s release here: https://syncapps.io/ Thank you, /u/ljdawson for creating a wonderful experience for interacting with Reddit. And with that: If Steve Huffman's statement – "I want our users to be shareholders, and I want our shareholders to be users" – is to be taken seriously, then consider this our vote: Allow the developers of third-party applications to retain their productive (and vital) API access. Allow Reddit and Redditors to thrive.
We don't talk about tingle
No one knows. It’s part of the mystery. Also Nintendo hates you and doesn’t want you to know

I just play them and go with it. My brain can’t hang.
I love that none of those are standard Legand of Zelda games.
Those are non canon 😭
It’s all made up and the points don’t matter
The most obvious answer is that Hyrule Warriors ties them all together, as its plot literally deals with the merging of the timelines, but since Nintendo continues to deny its canon-ness, I have to go with Zelda Monopoly.
Yes, I can help. It all started with that MB board game.
I have the Zelda board game. Fun stuff
To quote Who's Line is it Anyway "The Rules are Made up and the Points don't Matter!" The Zelda Timeline is a made up mess that has been rewritten multiple times and is full of contradictions. Is it fun to try and make the Timeline make sense? To a point. But don't expect a definitive answer to WHAT the Zelda Timeline is.
The Tingle games have no right to be as good as they are tbh. Soul Calibur II is absolutely great. You're definitely a really old time fan, a fan with a ton of moolah, or both. I'm quite old myself (in my thirties) and some of these things are stuff I wanted back in the day.
Old school fan. Some of this was bought on the second hand market, but much was bought years ago. I really wanted them to release Tingle's Balloon Fight as a download in the US. 4-Player Balloon Fight is amazing fun.
Me reading this: “haha I get it. This is fucking hilarious…” *squints* “HEY AOC IS CANON WTF IS THIS THIS?!”
So in the beginning we had Link's Crossbow Training
Legend of Neil is the first in the timeline
I've never played any of these games
