Due to straying posts at other topics (lol), I'm putting a thread here to talk about Zelda glitches. So let's kick it off with this: what's your favorite glitch?

One of my hands-down favorites is in MM, becoming Oni Link outside of a boss room. But there's actually 3 ways to do it, I recorded them, mwaha.

1. Kyafei mask run, day 3
2. Sakon's hideout, day 1-2
3. Gormon's ranch, day 1-3

Has anyone done all three of these, and which way of doing it is your favorite?

[Purgatory]

I haven't played MM very much, because I had a hard time getting used to the whole time thing, but in OoT, I liked making my own fun, once my game was complete.

Go back to battle Gannon. Once he knocks the Mast Sword from your hands, save the game and quit. Enter your file again and don't equip any sword. You can do all kinds of crazy things then! some of you probably already know this. One of my favourite things to do is go to the bridge that leads to the Gerudo, put on the hover boots, whip out your hook shot and shoot it at the sign above the bridge. When you do that, you'll fly off the ground and you can drag Link all the way out to where the land ends, in the valley to the left. XD

other stuff you can do is take out bombs on Epona. You can control Epona without being on her, you can "drown" on Epona, and I used to know how to do some kind of a first person view (With his hair in the camera and all XD) but I don't remember how to do that.

Sakon's hideout. There's a way you can roll into that wall blocking the entrance that let's you enter on any day. :3

I've yet to hear of these other two methods.

With the Ganon OOT glitch: you need version 1.0 of OOT to do that glitch. In other words: OOT gold cartridge or red-blood version of the game. Newer versions on the N64 patched this glitch, and it's not possible on the GCN.

To get into Sakon's Hideout in MM, You have to roll into the crack/crease on the right side of the door between the edge of the door and the cliff wall. When Link finally jumps through the crack, lean the control stick to the left or Link will fall into infinite space and you'll be reset in the canyon. You can also get in this way in the GCN version of the game, but the Oni Link glitch in Sakon's Hideout has been patched.

You can view a few glitches I recorded (a long time ago with crappy camera) and how to do them here (I'm Dragoness at LotL):

I have more, just ask me and I can record them. I test the glitches in all versions of the games released.

I wonder if Twilight Princess has similar glitches.

I wonder if Twilight Princess has similar glitches.

Twilight Princess has a handful, the majority of which are dubbed "fatal" (because you'll have to erase your file if you accidentally do one of them), but it's generally a much more glitch-free game than the previous Zeldas.

I just remembered that one thing in the Wii version with the cannon. Mmmmm. I'll bet we could add the plethora of Pokemon litches to this thread.

When you are fighting Ganondorf in TP...Take out the fishing rod...Ganondorf stops in his tracks and is mezmorised by it.

He'll give you a good smack in the face with his sword if you cast it or have it out for too long, though.

In OoT, you can knock back Ganon's energy blasts with empty bottles.

You can also replace any item you have with another empty bottle. It's a simple glitch that should work with any version of OOT:

1.Equip a bottle to one of your C buttons, and swing (make sure you can capture something, a fish is best, when you swing it.)
2.Pause the game as Link's bottle is in mid-swing, and equip an item you don't want anymore (i.e. Magic Beans once you've planted all 10, Biggoron's Claim Check after you've gotten the Biggoron's Sword) to the C button the bottle is on.
3.Unpause the game, and Link will present a bottle with the caught item in it (You caught a Fish! Da-da-da-DA!)
4.The item that WAS on that C button (claim check, beans) will be replaced by a new empty bottle you can now use just like the normal ones. This is permanent and the item that was previously on the C button will be replaced by an empty (or full) bottle in the items select screen you can now use and equip like a normal bottle.

Get the Ocarina of Time the first time you meet Zelda:
1.Use the empty bottle glitch described above, only use the Fairy Ocarina as the item to be replaced.
2. DO NOT SAVE after doing this! It will make it impossible for you to progress in the game if you do.
3.Once you replace the Fairy Ocarina with a bottle, go visit Princess Zelda for the first time.
4. When Impa tells you to take out your Ocarina so she can teach you Zelda's Lullaby, Link will take out the Ocarina of Time (even though he doesn't have it!) and play the song.
5.After the sequence, he will put the ocarina away and you will be without an ocarina at all (this is why you don't save, but it's still interesting).

If you hit a ledge at a certain angle, Link will jump spastically and make his jump noise and be stuck there.
