A Official Spirit Tracks Box (possible timeline Clue?)

I hate using Geography as proof for timeline placement, but i noticed certain similarities between the box art and four Swords.....



I dont know, kinda weak for a theory, but i thought i would post it to see the responce i get for it. Comments?

The tower in the back reminds me of clock tower :O

It looks quite a bit like the mountain tower from FSA/ALttP (but without the cap on top), but we can't say for sure yet.

Yeah, I'd say it's a definite possibility.

The ice could be Talus Cave/Frozen Hyrule, could be Snowpeak, could be something else entirely.

this has been discussed already....
but anyway, yeah, i believe that its the start to the 4 swords series.

Nice. Did you find this yourself?
The tower alone is pretty similar, maybe ST will have some useful information afterall.

I doubt it, especially since the boxart was just released earlier in the week.

The theory about there being a connection betwwen ST and FS/FSA isn't new, using the European boxart as evidence is. (As far as I know)

EDIT: Oh yeah...
XDD

EDIT EDIT: It appears that if I had a penny for every post I have made...

I'd only have 5 bucks. : /

I don't think ST will start off the 4 Swords series. The story that starts that off is the tale of the Hero of Men. He was a Hero during the time that only the green tunic was part of the Hero's Garb, not the hat also. tMC established the hat as a new piece of the Hero's Garb, and we see proof that this tradition is carried on in TP, when Link is clothed in both green tunic and hat.

Also, if you ask me, HoM seems to pre-date the Master Sword, otherwise there would be no need for a Picori blade to take care of the evil in the land.

This story also seems to explain the bestowel of certain mystical powers unto Hyrule's Royal Family, that is, the Light Force that resides in Zelda in each game. This is not to be confused with the Triforce of Wisdom, for they are two seperate things. While Zelda has the ToW in some games, I believe she inherently has the Light Force in all of them.

ST begins a hundred years where PH left off, if we're to believe the developers on this timeline placement. And if this game begins the tale of the Four Swords, then I guess Nintendo just up and said "♥♥♥♥ you, tale of the Hero of Men."

oh, well i guess i did say that not how i ment it. i didnt mean it would start it out, but i ment it would be like a prequel to the 4 swords series so far.

Cool.
All I was asking was if the OP was the first to use THE BOX(The point of this thread) to come to his conclusion.

Master Sword isn't after WW, mind you.
And it's going to, apparently, be absent in Zelda Wii.

We can't prove that for certain yet.

And it's going to, apparently, be absent in Zelda Wii.

We don't know that either. It's not apparent; it's only speculated as such.

Then how does it come back from being lodged in Ganondorf's stone skull at the very bottom of a huge ocean?

That's actually what I'm referring to. We can't prove that it remains down there, but we can't prove that it becomes unlodged. (We just don't know if the developers intend there to be MS games following the events of WW.)

The only way I see it becoming unlodged is if Ganondork is somehow revived and brings it to the surface with him. (Although, that would be stupid of him to bring the weapon of his bane back to the one who originally defeated him.)
