| |
| There were plenty of theories circling the web about the ''"Split Timeline"'', which was later confirmed by [[Nintendo]] to be true. However, Nintendo added yet another branch of games to the original split timeline called the "Failed Hero" timeline.
| |
| | |
| ===The Beginning===
| |
| The very first game on the timeline is ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'', which was made as a prequel to the entire series. Following that is ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]'' and its sequel ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords|Four Swords]]''. After that comes ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', which has three different splits in the Timeline at the end: One for the Failed Hero timeline (which takes place if the [[Hero of Time]] is unable to defeat [[Ganondorf]]), as well as the Adult and Child timelines (Since Zelda sends Link back into his childhood, that leaves a timeline with a hero [child], and one without[adult]).

| | |
| ===Failed Hero===

| Kicking off the first position on the Failed Hero timeline is ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', followed by the Oracle series (''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]'') and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]''. Lastly, to finish off the Failed Hero timeline, we have ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'', as well as its sequel ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|The Adventure of Link]]''.
