One problem with putting Four Swords Adventures before Ocarina of Time. The Dark World exists in it.

The Sacred Realm wasn't turned into the Dark World until Ganon touched the Triforce in Ocarina of Time. And it was changed back when Link wished for it in A Link to the Past. So Four Swords Adventures must come between Ocarina of Time and A Link to the Past.

Also, A Link to the Past is generally accepted as a prequel to The Legend of Zelda, as it was always marketed as one. I also put the Oracle game sometime between ALttP and LoZ, which makes sense when you consider the Trident. If it does go...

[OoT] - [FSA] - [ALttP] - [OoS][OoA] - [LoZ]

...then Ganon starts off in Ocarina of Time without the Trident, gets it in Four Swords Adventures, and still has it in A Link to the Past and the Oracles, somehow loosing it before the original Legend of Zelda.
