That's technically true, but at the same time, that's not exactly how the infoboxes delineate things? After all, regular Link isn't separated depending on which incarnation he is in the infobox, and the same goes for Ganondorf and Zelda. Yes, this particular rendition of Toon Link debuted in ''The Wind Waker'' due to certain characteristics unique to that version of the character, as well as trophies and tips telling us directly, but part of that is because ''The Wind Waker'' started development earlier and was even released before ''Four Swords'' in Japan, yet ''Four Swords'' did in fact release first overall. I feel like the introductory paragraph did a much better job explaining that [[Special:Diff/2878471|before]] [[Special:Diff/2878474|this]] [[Special:Diff/2879998|IP's]] [[Special:Diff/2888990|edits]].

:Alright, I see your points. I was thinking about those edits from the IP you linked and noticed they weren't there anymore, but I didn't realize it was the same IP that changed them. But if ''Four Swords'' released after ''Wind Waker'' in Japan, but before ''Wind Waker'' in other areas, which one do we credit? Which one came first? {{User:Alex95/sig}} 13:24, July 18, 2020 (EDT) | :Alright, I see your points.

::Well I think the previous wording was fine since we just go with whatever released first period; for ''Smash'' example, Byleth's first appearance is listed as ''Fire Emblem Heroes'' Ver. 3.7.0 despite that obviously being as a tie-in to ''Fire Emblem: Three Houses'', or for regional example, we don't chronologically swap ''WarioWare: Twisted!'' and ''WarioWare: Touched!'' depending on which was localized in English first. There is the argument that "Toon" Link specifically refers to the cel-shading of ''The Wind Waker'', but that isn't strictly true because ''HD'' replaced the original cel-shading technique and ''Smash'' actually doesn't retain it for the character either, so the logical conclusion is that it must be referring to the overall character design.
