[[{{Wikipedia}} Some argue]] that TheDevil is the BigBad IRL, [[InformedAttribute though you'd never know by his actual actions.]] Ganon is the BigBad in VideoGame/TheLegendOfZelda, so he's a stand-in for TheDevil. In these games, you ThrowTheBookAtHim to defeat him. Hell is a Pit that burns.

Some of those minions ''were'' really dangerous, when you analyze them; for example, Gibdo and Goronu both planned to resurrect the dead and enslave or kill the living, Glutko and Omfak were huge gluttons that plan to eat everyone and everything, respectively, and Lupay and Harlequin enslaved those that were unable to pay their debts to them.

However, they wouldn't have amounted to much if they had not allied themselves with Ganon, who was evil, powerful, and well-known.

Even if Link and Zelda failed to defeat them, there was a likely chance some of those minions would take out Ganon themselves.

[[WMG: King Harkinian is canon, and reincarnates just like Link and Zelda.]]
An unspecified King of Hyrule also appears in the animated series, ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Ocarina of Time]]'' (who is never shown onscreen, and is implied in the Manga adaptation to have been killed by Ganondorf), and ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker Wind Waker]]'' (who has a prominent role in the story).

Because he is a reincarnation like Link and Zelda, who are always named Link and Zelda no matter what, though he may be born into different lines, his first name is and will always be Daphnes, like it's revealed to be in ''Wind Waker''.

He first sends the first Mock Ganon to invade Koridai to draw the attention of the kingdom. Of course, this generation's Link ([[IdiotHero being the idiot that he is]]) falls for it. The book is used up on the mock Ganon and Harkinian naively thinks Ganon is gone for good. A few months later, the real Ganon deploys the second mock Ganon to invade Gamelon and orders him to capture the king to distract Zelda and Link from the kingdom while his forces bust into the castle and poison the wine reserves. Link gets trapped in the mirror, which drained the Triforce of Courage from him. The second Ganon is imprisoned and the Wand used up, the King boldy celebrates with a huge goblet of wine and dies days after. With Link weakened and the king and both artifacts out of the way, Ganon takes over. [[ZeldaIITheAdventureofLink GAME OVER RETURN OF GANON]]

* This may introduce a concept of secondary users of the Triforces. Harkinian could well grab it from Link, who is automatically destined to acquire the Triforce Of Courage the moment he becomes heroicish, because the Triforce picked Harkinian as backup if Link got killed or became too unacceptable, which is why other King Harkinians[[note]]Traditional name for male royals. Like Zelda for the females.[[/note]] in other Zelda games use it. Impa is the backup for the Triforce Of Wisdom, explaining why Zelda doesn't care that her nursemaid is handling an ancient holy relic (And using it effectively!) that rightfully belongs to the princess. Ganon doesn't want a backup, or else it's delegated between all his minion bosses. However, since the Triforce Of Power is controlled by a villain, it may well spite the destined controller and give backup to Gwonam, the ruler of Koridai.

* Zelda's Adventure is the Triforce of Power. It's just different, like how the Triforce of Power has lots of, well, power, but isn't used well and tends to get ignored almost as much as Courage. (Such as how YTP only uses the other two).
* Faces Of Evil is the Triforce Of Courage, as Link has focus and Triforce and Link have not been temporarily seperated. Plus, Courage's usual trait of minimal notice manifests as the fact it's not referenced until Harkinian borrows it next game. Also, sometimes you'll need a bit of courage to look at some of the map. Eww.
* Wand of Gamelon is the Triforce Of Wisdom, as Wisdom makes an appearance, blatantly. Also, Zelda seems to be more intelligent than Link, and as it's her day in the sun, she is actually a core protagonist and doesn't have to waste much effort during the true boss fight and just skips to CHAINS! And the Book of Koridai also appears, which makes good sense to not risk things and just shoot him already.

Philips was partnered with Nintendo for quite some time and culminated in what would've potentially been new video game hardware. Nintendo was so happy with it that it trusted Philips to make Zelda and Mario games. Nintendo then predicted the CDi could not sell and abandoned Philips. The people at Philips were understandably enraged by this and made the Nintendo-licensed games with little to no effort, due to a combination of them being stuck with an agreement from a company that disowned them and knowing there is no chance of the system's success. Philips made the three Zelda games and ''Hotel Mario'' for the sole reason to get the agreement over with as quickly as possible and forget about Nintendo.
