Don't forget the timeline split in OOT. Young Link was from MM and one timeline. Adult Link is from the future version so they were separated in-series anyway. Also, notably, the MM timeline goes into Twilight Princess, so technically Young Link would become TP Link in Brawl, and Adult Link would become Toon Link in Brawl too, timeline-wise anyway. Awkward, no?

And I still can't interpret that way. Not after Melee and after what he said.

And they're all different "characters", but some might be the person. They're not synonyms at all.
That isn't entirely accurate. Young link could potentially become TP link because they don't clearly specify the amount of time between the two games but adult link doesn't become toon link. Not only does an "era" past in between the two links but hyrule was also flooded in that time. It's more accurate to say Adult link created the path for toon link.

Close enough. :awesome:

Well the Timeline were never solidified until Hyrule Hystoria.
Miyamoto said in Nintendo Power that The Wind Waker is the Very First Zelda Story. That was in 2002.

Now all of a sudden there are games that proceed WW like SS.
(you can check this archive site out http://www.zeldadungeon.net/Zelda-Developer-Timeline-Quotes.php Many conflicting reports of the timeline around 2001-2002)

As for Dr. Mario, based off of the article it seems like Mario just has a lot of jobs that he pretend to me. I didn't see anything about they're all different characters.

Happy birthday, Falkoopa.

Again, no recording device, so have this:


Not sure if someone used that for another birthday, but whatever.

Right. But as pointed out, Link and Young Link are practically different people in Smash anyway.

This often happens during time shenanigans anyway. But in this case, they become different people when they went on to lead different lives.

Wait... how could Wind Waker be the first Zelda if the intro cut-scene literally states that he isn't?

Happy birthday, Falkoopa.

Wow, I completely forgot how negative this song was.
That is my favorite Dethklok song. :smirk:

That's impossible. Wind Waker's intro directly references the events in Ocarina of Time.

This was while the game was in development
This is the very first Zelda story. If all we ever did was try to continue the story, we'd lose some of the interest. It's fun to jump back and forth.
The timeline had no solidity even during WW development.

again look through this archive http://www.zeldadungeon.net/Zelda-Developer-Timeline-Quotes.php (it's around 2002)

Look through this archive http://www.zeldadungeon.net/Zelda-Developer-Timeline-Quotes.php It has has compiled multiple interviews pertaining to the timeline.(it's around 2002)
But Aounuma and Miyamoto then go on in another interview(also in 2002) saying that it takes place after Ocarina of Time.

"You can think of this game as taking place over a hundred years after Ocarina of Time. You can tell this from the opening story, and there are references to things from Ocarina located throughout the game as well."- Eiji Aounuma

It's a glaring oversight then. But Miyamoto also admitted that he wasn't involved as much in The Wind Waker's development...
This is my point exactly. The Zelda Timeline was all over the place early on in 2000.
Melee came out when? 2001? I doubt they were thinking of 2 timelines let alone 3 during Melee's development.

How can Young Link and Adult Link in Melee represent the 2 timelines, when at that point it wasn't even clear if there was a split or not???

Well, if we do get a new trailer, I'm hoping for Toad or Ridley myself.

I'm already quite happy with the current new characters.

Wait, is it confirmed that there will be a reveal on the site tomorrow, or is it just an expectation?

Threeways confirmed.

What was that about Wii Fit Trainer x MegaMan x Villager? :awesome: :troll:

On another idea, I'm trying to think of more entry phrases for new characters.

Things like "Ridley sizes up the competition."

I just need one for Brian(Quest 64). One idea I had was "Brian Rocks you like a Cyclone". Namely because it references two spells. >_>

"Brian Spells Your Doom".

I'm sorry for that. I had to.

And then for SSB4, can we get the canonical original Link (SS Link) and the historical original Link (Classic Link)? :awesome:

Who isn't these days :awesome:

Mr. Game & Watch. :troll:

@Poppy: That works. Now it just needs a picture.

@Arcadenik: Well, Adult Link in For isn't a specific one. He has notes from multiple Links, and his design and style is both SS and TP Link, soooooooo...
