In The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, it was revealed that before he was a demon, he lived as a human thief. Unlike Link and Zelda, who have descendants and successors, Ganon is the same individual in all but one of the games that he appears in, even across the series' multiple timelines. Ganon is, in some form, the primary villain in most of the Zelda games, with his schemes usually involving kidnapping Princess Zelda, conquering the land of Hyrule, and/or obtaining the Triforce. Here, he was established as a power-hungry porcine demon who had kidnapped Princess Zelda for her piece of the Triforce, but was slain by Link at the end of the game. Ganondorf was originally introduced in the original The Legend of Zelda game as Ganon. Melee, and also appears in Super Smash Bros. Ganondorf debuted as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. In either case, he has been Link's archenemy since the first game. Since then, the name "Ganondorf" has been used to refer to his true humanoid form while "Ganon" is used for his monster form, the only exception being in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (though, at times, the names have been used interchangeably). The name "Ganondorf" was first mentioned in The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past with the villain making his first appearance as Ganondorf in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. His first appearance was as the beast known as Ganon ( ガノン) in the original The Legend of Zelda game, although it was misspelled as Gannon in-game. Ganondorf ( ガノンドロフ, Ganondorf) is the main antagonist of The Legend of Zelda series.
