i agree with the first sentence

however i hope nintendo realizes this is a disaster and never attempts to create a timeline for anything ever again

nintendo games aren't ever designed to be story-heavy in the first place

How is the future in #3 without link?  He defeated Ganon in the future and went back in time, presumably to age as normally. Why would there be no link in the future once link returns to the past where he can age as an adult and exist in the future again?

I thought the timeline existed for a long time as an internal document.

i can guarantee you it didn't exist until they read some ridiculous fanfics

zelda sent link back in time

he's physically gone from that timeline where ganon has been defeated

Metroid's timeline works really well

Metroid's timeline works really well

until team ninja sends adam to the future and sends him back to be a kid

ffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuu

[Samus Aran]

Metroid's timeline works really well

that's because the games actually openly reference each other and everything's always been clear just from playing the games, and it's just a series that works better with timeline stuff

until team ninja sends adam to the future and sends him back to be a kid

Metroid: Adam of Time (first Metroid in timeline)

After this game: Timeline 1/Timeline 2

Timeline 1: (Adam is a child, grows up) Every Metroid game follows
Timeline 2: (Adam doesn't exist) ???? NO GAMES HERE. YET.

So actually that doesn't mess anything up. Yet.
