I always thought it's funny how...

...depending on which timeline you believe the 2D games take place in mostly, the other timeline is always so short!

Like if, let's all of the 2D games come after TWW + PH in the adult timeline, then the child timeline has only 3 games

Kinda silly

It is set up as such as to give the developers more freedom in making future games.

This way Nintendo has the freedom to do what they please with the shorter timeline without having any historical inconsistencies to distrupt it.

Hmm. Well, if that's true, it'd make more sense if the adult timeline had all of the games as, well, a giant ocean has a lot less to go from then a perfectly dry and huge Hyrule.

It does, the child timeline (as currently believed by me) only has OoT, MM, and TP.

TP link wasnt a child he was a teen at least

Yes, but TP is in the child time line. a hundred or few hundred years after majoras mask.

That is silly, but it is a bit dependent on which timeline theory you believe. In the one I subscribe to, the child timeline theory has MM, TP, LoZ, AoL, OoA, and OoS, and the adult one having all the games with the Cel Shading based art style. However, we are not here to discuss my timeline, I am just pointing out that it is only interesting if you like this set-up.
