[[File:Ganondorf(OOT3D).png|200px|Left|thumb|Ganondorf in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'']] Ocarina of Time is the first game in which Ganon's human form appears. Named Ganondorf, his picture is shown below. He came from the [[Gerudo]] supposedly swearing allegiance to the King of Hyrule. Of course he had other intentions. Ganondorf stormed [[Hyrule Castle]] forcing [[Princess Zelda]] to flee. He then tried to take the [[Triforce]] for himself, but it split into three pieces leaving him with only the Triforce of Power, with which he could take over Hyrule but not completely fulfill his evil intentions. At the end of the game Link confronts Ganondorf defeating him, then defeating Ganon (Ganondorf's pig form). He was then banished to the [[Evil Realm]]. | [[File:Ganondorf(OOT3D).png|200px|Left|thumb|Ganondorf in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'']] Ocarina of Time is the first game in which Ganon's human form appears.

Considered by many to be a cameo appearance, Ganondorf didn't show up till the end of Twilight Princess. According to the [[Six Sages]] (although one of them was killed by him) he was imprisoned in the [[Twilight Realm]]. Ganondorf controlled [[Zant]] to do his bidding and then when Zant failed at his task, took matters into his own hands. He waited in [[Hyrule Castle]] for Link, then a long four-part battle ensued, with Ganondorf being killed in the end (unconfirmed). | Considered by many to be a cameo appearance, Ganondorf didn't show up till the end of Twilight Princess.
