Well In Ocarina of Time, when he became Ganon and died, they went back in time. So he never became Ganon. Hence his future appearance since he's supposedly the same Ganondorf from Ocarina of TimeIs Ganon even a thing other than a temporary transformation at this point?
I don't mind Ganondorf but I dislike how Nintendo just kept sticking with him through future games. When OoT was released it was the one that was set in the earliest part of the timeline back then, and Ganondorf was part of Ganon's origin story. Seeing him become Ganon at the very end was the completion of the origin into the Ganon pig-monster he was known as.
Then in WW he appeared as a human for no real reason, and in subsequent Zeldas he was still human. Nintendo just liked the character better I guess. TP was the worst rendition, mostly because becoming Ganon was just another thing in his magic repertoire. Yawn.
Toss this into the pile of Nintendo Flanderizing its characters along with babifying Yoshi and anime-fying Samus.
(Correct me if I'm wrong, it's been awhile since I recall the timeline stuff)
