- Tapping B while swimming makes you swim faster

- You don't need bombs to break crates...just roll into them using Forward + A

- If you're using a weapon that doesn't let you use your shield (like the Big Goron's Sword or the Megaton Hammer) and you need your shield quickly, take out another weapon to get to it. A good one is the hookshot. Just tap the hookshot button once to take it out, then immediately press R to take out your shield.

- You can use the hookshot on anything climbable, like vines, fences, or grooved walls. It's faster than climbing up the normal way.

- You can extend the range of your hovering with the Hover Boots, allowing you to get items that may seem out of reach. Even items that this very guide states are out of reach. To do it, roll attack off of the edge with forward + A, take a few steps forward, then roll attack again and you will get a lot more distance out of your hover.

- You can get many Heart Container Pieces mentioned in section 9 of the guide early by using your boomerang or hookshot on it. This works well on the one's in Zora's River.

- As young Link climb to the top of one of the chains of the drawbridge of Hyrule Castle and wait until night fall or play the Song of the Sun to make it night. When the drawbridge is closed walk along the top of it for three red rupees. Go in to the Market and back out again to repeat for some quick cash.

- MEGA MONEY as adult Link! After completing the sleeping man and little girl sections of Adult Link's Trading Sequence, go once again to the screen 1 left of the starting point of the Lost Woods. Kill the skull kid there using your sword and he'll drop 200 rupees! Leave the woods and go back and kill him again for another 200! You'll have a full 500 in seconds!

- Go back to Link's house after accomplishing some stuff in the game and there will be a plaque there with records like largest fish caught, fastest horse race time, best archery score, etc.

- Beat up on a chicken with your sword a couple times and it will summon all its chicken friends to come and beat the hell out of you. Kinda funny, just run into a doorway or other exit to escape the onslaught. If you ride on Epona you can run over a chicken a few times with her and when the chickens attack you can't get hurt.

- Play Epona's Song for a cow and one of your bottles will be filled with milk.

- If you beat Malon's obstacle course at Lon Lon Ranch as adult Link (Talk to her while riding Epona after getting Talon to go back home) in under 50 seconds then she'll give you a cow! It will be delivered to your house in Kokiri Forest. Use it to get milk using the above trick.

- You can sell fish, bugs, and magic blue fire. Fish can be caught in Zora's Domain and in a little pond down a hole behind the potion shop in Kakariko Village, bugs under rocks sometimes or in holes in Hyrule Field, and blue fire in the Ice Cavern as adult Link. Find the person that looks like they're begging in the Market as young Link and in Kakariko Village as adult Link. Equip the bottle containing the item, walk up to the beggar and push the c button for the bottle and you'll get 100 rupees for a fish, 50 rupees for bug, and 150 rupees for some blue fire.

- If you're using bugs to get Gold Skulltulas from soft soil spots, after you drop them 3 will pop out. Recapture 1 of them and let the other 2 get the Gold Skulltula. Somehow the 1 becomes 3 again for the next time you use it. This way you'll never run out of bugs until you want to.

- Use the Lens of Truth in the treasure chest game in the market as Young Link to cheat and always win.

- Fun with gossip stones! Gossip stones are those rocks with an eye that act like rubber. You can do lots of things with them. Hit them with your sword and they'll tell you what time it is. Play Zelda's Lullaby and they will give you a free faerie. Song of Storms will give you a Big Faerie. Talk to them while wearing young Link's Mask of Truth (see section 3) and they'll give you gossip or hints. Hit them with the Megaton Hammer to flatten them. Use a fire arrow or Din's Fire spell and they'll start spinning around. Use a bomb and they'll rocket off into space (or explode on the ceiling).

- If you have ever played the second Zelda game (Zelda II: The Adventure of Link for NES) you will notice a lot of the towns have the same names as Zelda 64 characters. There is Ruto Town, Saria Town, Mido Town, Rauru Town, Nabooru town, and Darunia Town. It's likely that this is to show that the various towns of the future were named after these famous characters from the past.

- If you find a secret using the Stone of Agony and a bomb doesn't work, often the Song of Storms will do the trick. If that doesn't work, try the Megaton Hammer.

- In the fishing game you can find a sinking lure. Just walk/swim around until you bump into it. It isn't always there and its location is random. You can only use it for the current fishing session. If you catch a record breaking fish using it, then the fishing pond owner will say that you used an illegal lure. Look at the fish in the tank and it will say that it was caught using an illegal lure. If you talk to the pond owner (say "Let's talk about something") he'll make it legal to use it.

- There is a secret fish in the fishing pond as adult Link that looks like an eel called the Hyrule Loach. Cast in the reeds and lillypads when it is early morning. You can look for it by using your Iron Boots and going under water, then pushing top c to look around. It can be very large (upwards of 30 pounds) but you only get rupees for it and it is thrown back in.

- In the fishing game as adult Link you can try to hook the fishing pond owner's hat. If you do you can try fishing with it but it will sink to the bottom and he'll charge you 50 rupees for it. It will stay down there too, and he'll be without a hat the rest of the game.

- Once again in the fishing game, you can fish while standing underwater! You need the Hover Boots and Iron Boots to do this. You also need to have found the sinking lure in your current fishing session. Now put on the hover boots and run out into the water, but before you sink, cast your line and you should keep on running and fall in over your head. Then put on the Iron boots.

- Get a butterfly to land on a Deku stick and will turn into a faerie. Just walk slowly up to it while holding the stick and be patient.

- Play the Song of Storms for a seedling from a magic bean (as young Link) and it will grow and spit out 3 regular faeries.

- If you slash up a sign, like those in the training area in Kokiri Forest, play Zelda's Lullaby in front of it and it will reform right before your eyes!

- You are invincible while riding your horse Epona. You can also smash bushes with her.

- Shooting most enemies with Light Arrows will cause them to leave 50 rupees most of the time.

- After beating the game stay on the The End screen long enough and it will start playing your Scarecrow's Song using different instruments.
