Hint: Star Wars cameo:

Go into the Bombchu Bowling Alley in the market as child Link. Press C-Up to switch to the first-person look-around view. Look at the music machine of the bowling alley to see that R2D2 has found an interesting job.

Hint: Breaking open boxes:

To break open a regular brown wooden box, just run at it and press A. Link will roll and smash open the box. This is useful when finding all the chickens and to get a Skulltula in the Marketplace room with the pots.

Hint: Z-target anything:

The following trick allows you to Z-target objects that cannot normally be Z-targeted. Press A to check an object, and hold Z while you read the description. Keep holding Z after the text disappears, and you will be targeting it. Try this on the mat in front of Darunia's room, the grave in the front of the graveyard, or the Triforce symbols in the Great Fairies' homes.

Hint: Items from trees:

Roll into a tree in Hyrule field or in a town. The tree will randomly give Rupees, Hearts, Deku Nuts or other items, but at times will not give anything. Note: If you roll into the tree near a bunch of stones in a circle at Hyrule Castle, a golden Skulltula will appear. This trick also works at the tree closest to the entrance at Kakario village and Zora's river.

Hint: Potions:
Information in this section was contributed by Nick.

Green potion
Found at Kakoiro town and the Market. It fills the magic meter.

Red potion
Found at Kakoiro town and the Market. It fills up your all of your hearts.

Blue potion
Found at Kakoiro Town only. Go behind the potion shop and climb the steps. Enter the door and you will be in the Blue Potion Shop. Talk to the lady and you will get the Blue potion. You must get the Biggoron's sword (broken) to do this. The Blue potion fills both your magic and heath.

Hint: The chicken game:

When at Lon Lon Ranch, go visit Talon, the character you woke up before at Hyrule Castle. Accept his offer when he asks if you want to play a chicken game. To catch the three chickens, move to the corners of the room and just start grabbing all the chickens. It helps if you watch where at least one of them lands, to capture one quickly. As a reward for completing the game, Link will receive a bottle of milk which restores five hearts to his health.

To capture the chickens easily, pick up all the chickens before talking to Talon. Place the chickens in the corner between the table, the stairs, and Talon. They will stay there and allow Link to find the super chickens without the other chickens wandering around.

Hint: Extra chicken:
Get the Longshot and go to the village as an adult. Go to the roof with the man to see the windmill. You should also see an opening without a door. Look closely at the opening to see a light brown object. Shoot it with the Longshot and you should should see a staircase. Go up the staircase to find a chicken. Pick it up, and go through the "fan". You can go to that roof with that opening to get the heart by the cow.

Hint: Finding the key at the Treasure Box Shop:

Go to the Treasure Box Shop in the Market at night as a child. Talk to the man to get the first key, then use the Lens of Truth to learn which box contains the key.

At night as a child, go in the back alley to the key shop. Play the game and if you choose the right chest the first time, choose the following chests in a zig-zag pattern to will win every time.

Hint: Free key in the Gerudo Training Grounds:

Go into the lava room in which you must collect silver rupees in the Gerudo Training Grounds. Stand on the first platform and use the Song Of Time. You can jump to the two time blocks and grab the key above. If you keep going ahead, you will find the key room where you open the locked doors. You will find three treasure chests there. Do not open the door to the left. Only go to the right when you enter the key room in the entrance of the training ground. Note: Once you go back into the lava room, you will have to retrieve all the rupees you collected earlier. This is also another way to go through the room with only a hookshot.

Hint: Change Gerudo Guards color:

After rescuing the last man in the Gerudo's Fortress, a woman will appear and say that you are free to enter the fortress at any time. When she finishes, change your clothes (green, red or blue). The Gerudo will change the color of her lipstick, clothes and shoes. Note: This only works once. When you return later or save the game, she will be gone for the rest of the game.

Hint: Link's records:
Look to the left of Links bed and press A. You can read all of Link's records that he accomplishes through the game.

Hint: Kill the rolling Goron:
To kill the giant rolling Goron in Goron City, bomb him about ten times. After the ninth bombing, he will grunt and the other Goron's will run out to kill you. Note: The rolling Goron can not be killed if the bomb bag has already been obtained from him,

Hint: Finding Saria:
When finding Saria, go to the Lost Woods and move in the following directions: Right, Left, Right , Left, Center, Left, Right.

Hint: Fairy fountain locations:

After getting the Goron's Bracelet and the Bomb Bag, search Hyrule Field for suspicious looking boulders for a fairy fountain.
In the same tomb where a Hylian Shield is found, destroy the wall to find a fairy fountain.
On the way to Zora's Domain, move along the green shores of Zora'a River. Bomb a boulder at this location to discover a fairy fountain beneath it.
When leaving the Sacred Forest meadow, a ladder will appear on a hedge. This leads to a clearing that contains a boulder. A fairy fountain is under the boulder.
In the watery paradise of Zora's Domain, play the Song of Storms to open a hole in a platform. The hole leads to a fountain below.
In the dry desert after playing the Song of Storms, a hole will open up in the ground that will lead to a fairy fountain.

Hint: Great fairy locations:

Great fairy of power:
This Great fairy gives Link the "spin slash" attack. She is located at Death Mountain, outside the crater to the left of the entrance, behind a bomb-able wall.

Great fairy of wisdom:
This Great fairy doubles Link's magic meter. She is located inside the Death Mountain crater. Face the entrance to Goron City (inside the crater). A bridge will be to the right. Use the Megaton Hammer (obtained after passing the Fire Temple) to destroy the rocks blocking the entrance. Bombs will have no effect.

Great fairy of courage:
This Great fairy doubles adult Link's defensive powers. She is located near Ganon's castle. Obtain the Golden Gauntlets inside Ganon's castle. Use them to lift the column that is blocking the entrance, which is to the right, when facing Ganon's tower.

Great fairy of magic:
This Great fairy is located at the same spot as the Great fairy of courage when Link is a child. Use a bomb to open the entrance. She will give Link a new spell, "Din's Fire".

Great fairy of magic:
She is located behind Zora's fountain, when Link is a kid. Move all the way behind the fountain to find a piece of land. Then, destroy the wall behind it. She will give Link a new spell, "Ferore's Wind".

Great fairy of magic:
This great fairy is located between the two palm trees at the desert colossus. Use a bomb at the crack on the wall. She will give Link the "Nayru's Love" spell.

Great fairies:
During the game Navi will turn green and want to signal something to you. Play the Sun's Song or the Song of Storms at that location. If there is a Great fairy, it will appear. Note: You cannot capture the fairy in an empty bottle.

Big Poe locations:
Big Poe locations are signified by a little Poe appearing when you are not on a horse. Their locations are as follows:

Sign in front of Hyrule Castle.
Overhang near Kakariko entrence.
Bush near northwest of field.
Tree in front of Lon Lon ranch.
Tree in southeast of field.
Choppable bushes near southeast of field.
Big gray rock.
Y-shaped intersection near where field turns into Gerudo terrain.
V-shaped wall near Lon Lon ranch.
Tree near Gerudo.

Hint: Great view of Zora's fountain with Gold Skulltula:
Note: The Silver Gauntlets and Lens Of Truth are required for this trick. Go to where Link received "Ferore's Wind" at Zora's fountain, at night. Life the rock in the middle using the sliver gauntlets. Fall down the hole, then put on the Lens Of Truth and kill the Skulltulas. Climb up the ladder and kill the Gold Skulltula. Look over the ledge to see a great view of Zora's fountain

Hint: More money with Arrows Of Light:
After getting the Arrows Of Light from Zelda, you will not have any problems with money, even if you do not have all golden Skulltulas. Just go to Lake Hylia or another location with enemies and kill them with the Arrows Of Light. You will always get a purple rupee (worth 50 rupees). This does not work with spiders on the walls or enemies who always give the same thing, such as the Poes.

Note: This trick also works with bats.

Hint: Flying fireball:
Use Din's Fire while flying on a Magic Bean. The best place to try this is Lake Hylia. The camera movement will change allowing you to see Link flying around in a fireball. This works with every bean.

Hint: Finding a bag that holds 40 seeds:
Go to the Lost Woods. After entering, turn right and continue forward to a ledge with a fence and ladder to the left. A metal circular object will be suspended from a tree at this location. Shoot it three times exactly in the center with the slingshot and to receive the bag. A "100" will flash when your shot hits the center. You must score "100" three times in a row.

Hint: Defeating Dark Link:
During the battle with the Dark Link in the Water Temple, press Z to lock on to him, then press Forward and B to jab at him until he is defeated.

The best way to kill Dark Link is with the Megaton Hammer. When you enter the room, go to the far end and turn around. Dark Link will be waiting. When the battle starts, do not lock onto him. Instead, equip the Megaton Hammer. Use the Megaton Hammer when Dark Link is close during the battle.

An alternate strategy is to get close to him and use Din's Fire until he is defeated.

The absolute fastest way to kill Dark Link is to use the jabbing method (lock on to him, then press Forward and B) continuously while using the Biggoron's Sword. If done correctly and fast enough, he will die before he starts attacking Link.

Hint: Defeating Ganon:
Note: The following strategy is for defeating "Ganon" the Monster, not "Ganondorf the Great King of Evil". Equip the Megaton Hammer then run at Ganon. When he raises his arm to slice you or hit you with his sword, immediately roll between his legs. Then Z-lock his tail and use the jump attack. This strategy works when you get the Master Sword back from past the Ring Of Fire.

For a harder challenge, try to defeat Ganon without using any magic from your magic meter, wear the hover boots during the fight, and use a broken giants knife as the only weapon.

When you are fighting the last battle with Mutant Ganon, you do not need to use a sword. You can instead use the Light Arrow on his tail. Paralyze him first or sneak behind him, then shoot.

Use the following trick to beat Ganon the huge pig beast. Make sure you have at least two green potions and thirty Deku Nuts. Use Naryu's Love and you will be invincible. After using the spell, just run around Ganon and start throwing nuts at him. The first one will stun him and give you time to circle around him and throw another nut at his tail. This will hurt him. Also, you can use the hookshot to stun him by shooting it into his face. Try any other items that you want to.

Hint: Finding items when fighting Ganon:
If you are low on arrows, magic power, hearts, and other items in the last battle with the mutant Ganon, some of the Debra that are lying around contain items. Lure Ganon over to one and hide behind it. Ganon will smash it with his sword and the items will come floating out.

Hint: Defeating Ganondorf:
When Ganondorf creates a gap on the floor when you are fighting him, do not jump it and lose valuable hitting time. Instead, before entering the room with Ganondofr, equip the Hover Boots. Then, when he is down on the floor after playing "Tennis" with him, fly across using your hover boots and swing your sword at him. Doing this saves valuable time and it is quicker and easier then jumping across and waiting for Link to land.

Make sure you have the Longshot and Light Arrows equipped. Three bottled fairies are not required, but they can be very useful. Big fairies are also useful, because they can restore your magic. When you reach the room where Ganondorf plays the organ, move to a far corner after he talks to you. While at that location, deflect his shots with the Master Sword. When he is hit, shoot him with a Light Arrow. He can now be targeted. Do so, then use the Longshot to reach him quickly to hit him with the Master Sword. As soon as he gets up again, move back to the corner. If you run low on magic, go to the lower level and break the bottles for more.

You can hit Ganondorf with the Light Arrow when he is charging up for his super fireball.

On the first stage, hit him with the Light Arrow then hit him with the Big Sword or Megaton hammer. After two to four hits you will have him on his knees. When fighting Ganon on the second stage, you do not have to use the Light Arrows -- after he swings his sword at you, roll under his knees and strike him with the Megaton Hammer or The Big Sword. Repeat this until you get the Master Sword. After you get the sword, do the same thing but do not wait to strike. Z-target his tail so you see it, and strike about six to nine times.

After deflecting Ganondorf's small lightning balls a few times (and weakening him), he will power-up a gigantic lightning orb. He will throw it, and several small ones will fly in all directions toward you. There will be no way to deflect all of them, so you are most likely to get hit with five or six of them if you run. To deflect all of them back to Ganondorf, you will have to charge up for a magic sword spin attack. It takes timing, just like for the smaller orbs. It is a fairly easy task to most players. It would also be wise to use the Biggoron sword to do more damage.

Although mirror shield does block all the fireballs Ganondorf shoots, you can avoid this situation entirely by simply hitting him with Light Arrows before he shoots.

Hint: Defeating Dodongo:
To defeat Dodongo in Dodongo's cavern, throw a bomb in his mouth, then strike him with your sword. Repeat this three or four times.

Before going into Dodongo's cavern, equip yourself with a Hylian shield by buying it at the Bazaar shop in the Castle Market, or by pulling the grave with the flowers in the Kokoira Grave Yard. When the King Dodongo rolls at you, press R to put up the Hylian shield. You will duck under it and be unaffected, unless he shoots fire at you.

Hint: Defeating Bongo Bongo:
Get the Biggoron's sword and the Eye Of Truth so you can see him. First, hit his hands with arrows (you may still keep the Eye Of Truth on). Then hit his eye ball to stun him. Slash violently and repeat these step. Z target his hands, then shoot your arrows.

Hint: Defeating Iron Knuckles:
An easier way to defeat the Iron knuckles (big enemies with big axes) is to first target him. Then, just as he swings, do a back flip. Then do a lunge attack as he finishes his swing. If he does a double swing, just wait for him to finish his second swing, and quickly do a lunge attack. If you get hit, try to lure him to hit a pillar or his chair. If he hits the chair or pillar, then hearts will appear. The only Iron Knuckle on which this strategy will work on is the one faced before the two witch sisters.

An easy way to defeat an Iron Knuckle is to use Nayru's Love. Then Z-target and keep slashing him with your sword. He will still able to knock you back with his ax, but it will not hurt you. To get out of the way of the ax, just use backflips or a sidejump.

Z-target him and just keep firing Bombuchus at him. You need at least 50 Bombuchus to defeat him.

Hint: Defeating Queen Ghoma:
While battling Queen Ghoma in the first dungeon, "Inside the Deku Tree", notice that Navi says "Her eye is vulnerable when its red." You can stun her by shooting her eye with your slingshot when her eye is red. Also notice that her eye is red while she is preparing to lay eggs while hanging from the ceiling. Shoot her down before she lays her eggs.

Hint: Defeating Business Scrubs:
When business scrubs try to make a deal with you, simply hit the ground (not the platform) and all the Scrubs will be easily defeated.

Hint: Defeating Volglava:
After hitting Volglava on the head two times with the Megaton Hammer, he will do one of two things: fly around the room screaming, which causes earthquakes, or chase after you breathing fire. If he chases you, Z-target his head and bombard him with arrows.

Hint: Getting heart piece above Dodongo's cavern as a child:
Go up to where the bomb flower used for opening the cavern is located. Throw the bomb flower somewhere so you can use Z-targeting. Then, hold back on the Analog-stick and do a back flip. If done properly, you should land on the mesa-type platform. Although you will lose hearts from the fall, you will regain them when the heart piece is in Link's hands.

Hint: The Giant's Knife:
Go to Goron City as young Link. On one of the floors is a wall that appears questionable. Blow it up, then keep destroying the other walls behind it. Talk to the big may to learn that he is working on a weapon. Return as older Link to receive the Giant's Knife. Note: It will break with about five swings.

before The Giant's Knife breaks, it is the best sword in the game. It is even better than the Big Goron sword because it is slightly more damaging. Even after it breaks, it is still useable. The only problem is that it is now as short as the Kokiri sword. It does suffer from less damage after it breaks. You can buy another one after it breaks, but this is not recommended. Only use it before it breaks on a Boss or similar enemy to get its full potential.

Hint: Getting Gold Skulltulas:
Capture a bug in a bottle and drop them on some soft soil, where Link would put some Magic Beans. A Gold Skulltula will appear. Kill it and get your new found token. This works on all of them except the soft soil spot right next to the man that sells the Magic Beans.

Hint: Unlimited Skulltulas:
Go outside Hyrule Castle as young Link to where Talon is met. There will be a tree at that location. Play the Song of Storms and a grotto will appear. Enter the grotto, destroy the walls with a bomb, and kill the Skullata. Use the boomerang to get the token while doing a back flip to escape. Keep repeating this to get unlimited Skulltulas. Note: If done incorrectly. reset game and try again.

The Boomerang is required for the following trick. Go to the hole in the ground by Lon Lon Ranch where a Skulltulla can be found. Go down and kill the Skulltula, but do not collect the coin right away. Use the boomerang to get the Skulltula, and before you get the boomerang back to you, backflip into the warp portal. If done correctly, the screen will blank will display "You got" without finishing the sentence. Repeat this to collect over 100 coins.
