The precise chronology of the Zelda universe is hotly debated among fans. As time progressed and more games were released, the exact order of the games in an overall timeline became complex and heavily disputed. There are bits and pieces of definitive information to connect certain games to each other, but there is no definitive explanation for how every game relates to each other in a standardized timeline of events. The creators of the series have repeatedly dropped hints as to the order of the series, but over time most of these "revelations" have b ...

The first game, The Legend of Zelda appears relatively crude and simple by today's standards, but it was a very advanced game for its time. Innovations included the ability to use dozens of different items, a vast world full of secrets to explore, and the cartridge's ability to save progress via "battery backup". The game also featured a "Second Quest" in which, upon completing the game, players could replay the game using a similar overworld layout but with new dungeon layouts, and shop, item, and dungeon locations changed.

Although some fans believe all Zelda games feature the same characters, and some adhere to a misquote suggesting that every single game features different characters, the official line is that there are numerous heroes named Link throughout Hyrule's history, and unless otherwise indicated, each adventure is that of a new protagonist. Some of the games are linked chronologically and take place in a clear continuity, while others do not. For example, the Link in A Link to the Past is clearly not the same Link who donned See also:

The Legend of Zelda was made into an animated cartoon as a "show within a show" in the semi-live-action Super Mario Bros. Super Show TV series produced by DiC. The animated Zelda shorts were aired each Friday instead of the usual Super Mario Bros. cartoon that aired during the rest of the week. The series loosely followed the NES Zelda games, mixing settings and characters from those games with original creations. Due to the Super Show's syndicated nature, only 13 animated Zelda shorts were fe ...

Link's adventure in the original The Legend of Zelda was featured in a popular song, Zelda, from The Rabbit Joint's self-titled album. The song describes Link's adventure in the original The Legend of Zelda, to the tune of the famous Zelda overworld music. This song has often been incorrectly attributed to the popular alternative metal band System of a Down. The song was made even more famous after a graphic designer named Josh Spaulding created a flash animation to accompany it. The animation uses backgroun ...

Valiant Comics released a short-lived series featuring characters and settings from the TV show before ending their "Nintendo Comics System" line. Additionally, a few LoZ stories were included in a larger, 2-issue "Nintendo Comics System" title, which also had Mario, Metroid, Punch-Out!!!, and Captain N. While largely forgotten and ignored, this is actually the source of some persistent fanon beliefs. The Legend of Zelda (Zelda no Densetsu) Mangas are created by two female manga artists ...

In addition to the primary quest of saving the land from destruction or domination by an evil force, there are also lesser quests upon which Link can embark at the discretion of the player. These "side quests" usually reward the player with items that make the primary quest easier to complete (such as Pieces of Heart, new weapons, etc.), and are occasionally necessary to complete the game.

The Legend of Zelda games feature, as their central character and protagonist, a young boy named Link. Link is frequently called upon to rescue Princess Zelda, for whom the series is named. The main antagonist in the series is a powerful dark wizard known as Ganon or Ganondorf. The action usually occurs in the mythical land of Hyrule. In story terms, the earlier games did not deviate much from the standard "save the princess" theme, but later installments have diversified their plot somewhat and added twists and turns to the tale.
