Huh... that's why I forgot. I never lost the race, so I never lost the dough.

Though there's a simple fix for that: Save before the race. Sure, you have to walk out there again, but if you want to save money so badly, it's a good tactic.

Well, I just beat it for the first time, and I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed it. Probably high up on my list of favorite games, but I'm not sure it holds the number one spot. There were parts I loved, and parts that were kind of boring to me. For example, after you get out of the Kokiri Forest at the beginning and suddenly about a million different sidequests and such become accessible. I feel they should have been more evenly distributed throughout the game. That's not to say I didn't like them individually, but after a while I was thinking, "Come on! Just let me get to the dungeon already!". The one that, in my opinion, would make the game better had it been left out was Cucco-finding minigame in Kakariko Village. Took me forever to find the one that was

Cucco location!

in the crate.

The best sections, for me, were the last couple dungeons; the Shadow Temple and Spirit Temple. Both of them employed unique concepts that I'd like to see used in future Zelda games. Especially the *ahem* method of transportation in the Shadow Temple.

I also noticed that none of the dungeons were overly complicated. Yes, I am including the Water Temple here. In the original I read that the Iron Boots weren't an item, but rather a piece of equipment, so I can see turning them on and off getting extremely tedious. Overall, I'd give the game a 9.5/10.

Has anyone tested to see if the statue in the Spirit Temple's um...breasts...are still hookshotable?

[Chakaa]

I'm in the Spirit Temple on my Master Quest file, I'll test it out when I get to that room.

Deku stick trick? Never heard of that. Mind explaining?

I'm currently writing a walkthrough for GameFAQs if anyone is interested. It's going great, I'm at the Fire Temple now. I'm trying to get everything as early as possible, ad I've never had this much stuff at this point in the game!

I was thinking of doing one for MQ, since you can do a lot of "sequence breaking" in that run. After the forest temple, I went directly to the ice cave, and I intend on getting the longshot from the water temple next, and ultimately, the Biggoron sword before even setting foot in the Fire Temple. I don't remember if you need the hammer at all in the MQ water temple...

Huh. That's a kinda weird glitch. But why use a deku stick? Sure just jump attacking with the sword would work too?

I just started typing the Water Temple, wish me luck

The hardest part about this walkthrough is that at one point my Golden Skulltula Token count in the walkthrough didn't match up with my count in the game, and I had to individually go back through each Skulltula to find the problem. It turns out I saw one, wrote about it, then forget to kill it, hehe.

[Moo2wo]

I didn't bother getting all of them; I think I ended with 36. I read in a walkthrough that the last real reward you get from them is at 50 Golden Skulltula Tokens, and I think the prize for that is a Piece of Heart. If you get all 100, everytime you talk to the guy in the middle of the house he gives you 200 rupees, which is kind of useless at that point in the game.



Good luck with the Water Temple! It is a tad bit confusing, but if you thouroughly search each room on your first go it makes it a lot easier.

This is like, my 7th or 8th time playing through Ocarina of Time. I've come to realize that the Water Temple isn't hard at all. It's just that it's easy to miss a small key and not remember where you have already looked. Also, changing the water level if you missed something is kind of tedious. Other than that, it's a fairly simple dungeon actually

Oh and it's not just 200 Rupees you get for 100 Tokens, it's 200 Rupees every time you talk to him (or something like that). It would be nice, but you get it so damn late in the game

Here's why it works: A jump attack with a Deku stick is as strong as a hit from the Biggoron's Sword. Kind of like how in AlttP, throwing a pot was as strong as a Tempered Master Sword hit. Now, in OoT, if you hit an enemy, then crouch, and stab, your stabs will be as strong as your last attack. So, by jumping, then stabbing, you can kill her with what is equal to four, or maybe three Biggoron Sword hits. Dunno why it was coded that way though.

I agree about the Water Temple. It stopped giving me trouble years ago, when I learned to remember that key in the center room . I actually enjoyed the Water Temple much more in MQ. For some reason, it is just more fun.

[Chakaa]

Meh, I don't like the MQ version of the Water Temple, it seems too empty compared to the real Water Temple.

o_O We've reached post 1000!

Oh no, this topic is going to end. How will we continue it? Ocarina of time 3DS 2?

[Mitchfork]

The topic doesn't end after 1,000 posts, guys... That was only ever for specific threads and such.

[The Satellite]

... guys... ? We don't lock threads that make it to 1,000 replies. That's only in Message Board Games. Continue along and get back on topic, please.

EDIT: I WAS HERE FIRST, EB.

I voted for a Majora's Mask 3DS thread, only because I really want Nintendo to be smart and remake that too.
