{{Interview/Q|Total RPG|Dan, it appears something about ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'' translation is jumbled. It is said the events played out in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' were the events that happened in the story of ''A Link to the Past'', and therefore were to solve many story holes. But if Zelda 3's instruction manual is read, these events sound completely different, and now there seem to be more holes than ever. It clearly states on the back of the box of ''A Link to the Past'' that it was a prequel to ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Game)|The Legend of Zelda]]'' and ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|The Adventure of Link]]'', but Miyamoto says it comes after them. What's the truth?}}

{{Interview/A|Dan Owsen|The truth is, the text on the box (and possibly the Nintendo Power guide) is wrong. D'oh! If you just ignore the box text, the stories fit together better. Basically, the events in ''Ocarina of Time'' are the "[[Imprisoning War]]" described in the SNES version's story. The Golden Land was the [[Sacred Realm]] before [[Ganon|Ganondorf]] corrupted it. The order of the stories is: ''Ocarina of Time'', ''Zelda 1'', ''Zelda 2'', ''A Link to the Past''. Since ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'' was a dream (or was it?) it's hard to say where it fits.}}
