Man Plays Every Zelda Game in a Month, Writes Paper on Timeline

By Luke Plunkett Published February 3, 2012 |

So Nintendo has, more or less, settled on some semblance of an official timeline for the Legend of Zelda series. You may have thoughts/concerns about this. You also probably don’t have as many as reader Zach does, though.

A little while ago Zach, who writes at website View From Heaven, sat down to play every official, canonical (sorry, CD-i!) Zelda game ever made. In a single month. While taking notes and pictures the entire time. His goal was to then write a paper on what he thought the series’ timeline looked like.

While he was doing it, Nintendo went and did his job for him, but rather than give up, Zach pressed on and wrote his paper anyway. Which you can read at the link below. If you give even half a shit about the Legend of Zelda fiction, it’s actually a pretty interesting read!
