Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker is a game for the Nintendo Gamecube in 2003. It is the tenth Zelda game.

Plot
Centuries after the events of Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, Hyrule has been flooded by a vast sea called the Great Sea. The residents live on islands dotted on the sea. Link, a younger farmer on Outset Island has his sister, Aryll kidnapped by beings.

Link is actually a descendent from the Hero of Time, who is the Link from Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, according to his grandmother. Link meets a young female pirate called Tetra who wants to help Link find Aryll.

After exploring the islands, finding the Master Sword and exploring the dungeons, Link finds out that Hyrule was flooded by the three goddesses because Ganondorf has escaped from the Sacred Realm and the goddesses flooded Hyrule to freeze Ganondorf in time.

Ganondorf's forces kidnapped Tetra and Link goes under the Great Sea to save her. Link finds out that Tetra is descendant of Princess Zelda. After reaching the top of the castle which is in a big waterfall of water, Link finds Ganondorf and Tetra, who has now formed into Princess Zelda. Ganondorf takes the Triforce of Courage from Link and makes up the Triforce. Ganondorf wishes for Hyrule to be under his control, but the King of Hyrule pleads future for Link and Tetra nd he touches the Triforce, granting his wish.

Ganondorf battles Link and Zelda, but Link plunges the Master Sword into Ganondorf's head, turning him into stone. Link and Tetra resurface to the islands, presumably drowning the King of Hyrule. The game ends with Link setting off with Tetra on her ship, setting off to adventures unknown.
