Nintendo Reveals Zelda Timeline Placement Of A Link Between Worlds

Now that the Zelda timeline has been made official through the excellent Hyrule Historia, Nintendo has decided to reveal the placement of Link's latest adventure with the release of the game via Twitter. This is a nice change of pace considering the rather secretive nature of the series. Surprisingly, the game takes place in the "Fallen Hero Timeline" AFTER the Game Boy classic, Link's Awakening. With the games deep ties to A Link to the Past, many thought it would be a direct sequel to the SNES classic. It's interesting to note that since it follows the three Game Boy (Color) titles which are available through the 3DS eShop, fans can tackle the 4 games in order which is a nice bonus. Enjoy!
