Hello, everyone! Since the reveal of Breath of the Wild I've been taking note of many interesting posts from all the current Zelda threads. The main focus of these posts is the following: There appears to be many elements from previous Zelda games on this new Zelda game!
So you might be asking yourself: Where could this game fit in the current timeline? Well, that's one pretty hard question to answer. Without further ado, let's begin! (MOST IMAGES EXPAND!)
First of all, some locations looked familiar:
Temple of Time
Bridge of Eldin / Great Bridge of Hylia
The resting place of the Master Sword
We also have...
- A Korok from The Wind Waker. It resembles a character called Elma, actually!
- The Old Man could actually be a reference to:
...or some kind of ancestor /descendant from The King of Red Lions!
- Hylia's Statue from Skyward Sword. It appears to be inside the Temple of Time.
- An UFO
...which could possibly be:
...or more believeable:
- The Timeline Convergence
ONE LAST THING: If

And there are still many things to discover! Don't worry, though -- I will try to keep this thread updated with the latest discoveries.

Also, there's this quote from the Deku Tree from Wind Waker, which could possible mean the Koroks were successful in their missions:

So you might be asking yourself: Where could this game fit in the current timeline? Well, that's one pretty hard question to answer. Without further ado, let's begin! (MOST IMAGES EXPAND!)
First of all, some locations looked familiar:
Temple of Time
Ocarina of Time
Breath of the Wild
NOTE: Even the game marks that same location as the "Temple of Time", so I'm pretty sure it is OoT's one after all.
Bridge of Eldin / Great Bridge of Hylia
or
Twilight Princess
Breath of the Wild
Great Bridge of Hylia has water underneath it, so it's the most likely candidate.
The resting place of the Master Sword
Skyward Sword
A Link to the Past
Breath of the Wild
Thought the most likely candidate for this place appears to be from ALTTP, SS's background fits more the place in my opinion. The pedestal is different (a minor detalit) for example, so it could be neither!

A Twilight Portal from Twilight Princess

THIS! An airship?! a zeppelin?! Skyloft from Skyward Sword?! Sky City from Twilight Princess?!

ONE LAST THING: If
Link has slept for 100 years

What's interesting here is that it speaks about an ancient sea. Maybe Wind Waker's sea?

Aldo
Olivio
Hollo
All from Wind Waker! Why are they still present, though? Aldo even mentions that he has "friends hiding out all around", which could mean there are many Koroks left to be discovered.
Also, there's this quote from the Deku Tree from Wind Waker, which could possible mean the Koroks were successful in their missions:
"Forests hold great power: they can change one tiny island into a much larger island. Soon, a day will come when all the islands are one, connected by earth and grove. And the people who live on that great island will be able to join hands and, together, create a better world. Such is my dream."
