TP's Place in the Zelda Timeline

Does anyone know where it fits into the chronology? I was thinking after the WW, but I may be wrong. If anyone has knowledge on this, please tell me.

It's been confirmed that the game takes place after The Wind Waker, I believe.

Okay, here is another one: (sorry)
Will Hyrule be restored to its state in OoT? I haven't played WW, so sorry if this question is "stupid"...

I have a theory about draining Hyrule. Would you like to discuss it with me in that thread? (It's the one with massive spoilers for WW and Baten Kaitos.)

We don't know if it's a new Hyrule or a drained one, after the events of Ocarina of Time, but it's likely it's the same place that Ocarina of Time took place in. I really suggest you play The Wind Waker, because there's a lot of interesting plot information in it, aside from being a great game.

And I'm not 100% sure as to the game's placement in the overall timeline. Can anyone else confirm or deny it?

Apparently I'm wrong, and the game takes place after Ocarina of Time.

I get to say an admin is wrong .

It actually takes place inbetween Tww and OoT. I remeber hearing that on TV for E3 coverage.

Really? I sorta wanted it to be after TWW...To see the fate of Hyrule.

WRONG!!! I get to say YOUR wrong! :p It is confirmed that that was a mis-translation and infact it takes place AFTER WW... SO..... When the interview was being translated the translator mixed "before" with "after" and said that he said "before WW" when it was accually "After WW"...

Aw, that's not fun...I hope you manage to get a cube still before or within the time the loz ttp comes out and i'm still unsure about when this new game takes place but i'm still going with in between OoT and WW...

That seems to be the predominate opinion. I might get a Cube, but I might wait until the Revolution.

HaHa I get to say you are WRONG. Just because one site says it is a mis translation doesn't make it true. NINTENDO itself says it takes place between OoT and WW. Thank you. Go check Nintendo.com if you don't believe me. It says it.

I don't see it. Please post the link.

A: Chronologically speaking, it takes place a few decades after The Wind Waker.

no, you are wrong. Anouma said it takes place after oot. Not before WW.

Guess i was wrong. Heh heh. sorry 'bout that

Doesn't it simply take place between OoT and WW?
That's what I've heard.

Everyone seems to be forgetting that just a few months before the release of TWW Miyamoto said that it takes place before OoT. Here's a link:

What I'm getting at is that you can't trust anything they say about the timeline before the game is released.

I get the feeling that people want this game to be chronologically closer to OoT, rather than WW, because they feel some kind of greater attachment to OoT and are desperate to associate anything at all with that game.

We shall see when the game is released, and the introductory sequence plays.

I think its really stupid that its after OoT for one simple matter: repetiveness.
If Ganon is actually in this game, he has to break free from the Sacred Realm and be reimprisonned for his appearance in WW. So I'm really hoping that theres another translation error that'll say it is after WW.

HAH!
Funny thing about that is that they said that OoT was the first game in the series. That's one *bad language* source of information.
