Retcon Zone: Hyrule Historia finally revealed the timeline, and the order was: A Link to the Past, Oracle games and Link's Awakening, which is fine since at the end of Oracles Link decides to go on an adventure traveling the world by boat, exactly as Link's Awakening begins. But there are some inconsistencies like Link been skinnier in Oracles than in ALttP and LA and Zelda presenting herself at the end of the Oracles as if she didn't´t knew Link already in ALttP. So, The Legend of Zelda: Encyclopedia says that the order is inverted and the Oracle games happened later, but wait, there is more! I don't know which one is the Japanese and which is the American, but, apparently there are 2 different versions: one says that the Link from Oracles is the same, and the games happen a few years after LA, and another says that it is an entirely different Link so the games are set later than in the other version.
