Ocarina of time ending

There has been serious debate on what really happened at the end of OOT.
I believe that when Link returned it was afterher escape from Ganondorf.
I believe that all the evil Ganondorf did was undone and that when Link slayed his demonic form,he slayed him through all time.Does that make sense?

Well there is a theory about this Link and the Seven sages seal Ganondorf, Zelda returns Link to his original time (Note: Sealed Ganondorf and Teen Zelda stayed in that time period) Now that Link is back to its Child form he go to the castle with Child Princess Zelda this make the the time period to split (Now I think that Link alerts Princess Zelda before Ganondorf attack the castle and somehow make the King to discover Ganondorf's true intensions and then the events of TP about the Sages sealing Ganondorf in TR)

I've heard that theory,yet i hate the idea of a split timeline.I mean,there are 2 Links in 2 different worlds?WEIRD!

OoT Link is not in both timelines. Adult Link was erased from the adult timeline. That is why there was no Link to stop Ganon, when he returned. This leads to TWW.

OoT Link in the child timeline went to Termina. Eventually, this leads to TP.

but isnt Link reincarnated into WW?

That is the problem. How can Link be reincarnated into a different timeline? Some people say that spirits are beyond time and can be reincarnated into a different timeline. Whether that is true or not, we will never know. Nintendo, if they took the split into consideration, might of assumed it was possible.

yeah,but no matter what i just think there is no split timeline.Im too used 2 the idea of:
OOT>MM>TP>WW.

No matter what? Well, you do know that Aonuma confirmed the split timeline theory, right?

did he?well i think that as it is stated nowhere in the GAME,i think there is no split.

Yes, Aonuma confirmed it in an exclusive interview a couple of months after the game was released. If you're still trying to prove it linear, you're beating a dead horse. Personally, I believe that Link was sent back in time, but the events that occured during the child time still happened, like, ganondorf still got the trifirce. But instead of trying to fight him on thier own Link and Zelda warned the king, and Ganondorf was taken to be executed. When he was there, the term "divine prank" was used to explain that Ganondorf came to terms with his newfound power, and killed one of the sages, and then was sent into twilight. All happening within the span of about 2 months. Link and Zelda, and Ganondorf (even though he was in twilight) all still had thier triforces because of the events that occured as link first grabbed the master sword. Lemme put it like this, just because at the end of Oot the door was closed, doesn't mean it was never opened.

The timeline seldom is mentioned in the actual games, but if a developer confirms something, it's definitely right.

dont double post,just edit.the mods will get u

I'll make sure I do that next time.

Even without Aonuma confirming it, it still makes perfect sense.

In TP, Ganondorf doesn't recognize Link, even though he is obviously the same as in OoT. Another thing: The sages from OoT-ish age aren't the same in WW and TP. In TP, there are ghost-like sages, and no mention of the ones from OoT, while in WW, there are.

Well Ganondorf doesn't reconized Link because the events of Adult never happen

I thought Miyamoto, or someone, said that TP Link isn't OoT Link. It makes sense if it is, I just wanted to make sure I heard right.

No, your right, they are different links, i don't recall anyone saying they were

Oh, Hombre de Mundo ment that Ganondorf was the same as in OoT?! Sorry I misread the post.

I argee with the split timeline theory. I think it makes the most since, but really nobody knows, it would be neat if they released an overall timeline, but I do not think they really intended for Zelda to ever have a timeline when they made most of the games.

Plus, with each new game, it screws up the timeline. As they come out with new games, there ideas change. As there ideas change, so does the timeline. So if they ever come out with an official timeline, it will come out after the last game is made.
