And just flick the wiimote up once you see the lure go down a bit.

 

It took me and my friend about a half hour pissed off trial and error to figure it out >.> <.<

Same with me. It took me forever to figure it out. And after I finally did, I found out that if you press d-pad up on the item select screen, it'll tell you about the item. If you press it on the fishing rod, it'll tell you how to fish. :doh: Doh.

O'RLY?

 

Well at least I don't have to feel stupid now that I know you guys had troubles with this part too. I would REALLY like to get into the meat and potatoes of this game. If I wanted to throw rocks and go fishing, I could just hang out in my back yard... It's still a great game though.

I find it very strange that anyone would have trouble with any of these kinds of things... I thought it was all plainly obvious what you were supposed to do.

 

Oh shove it...

 

I knew I was supposed to catch the damn fish, it was just taking forever. You see, I work MANY hours during the week selling these games to kids like you, unfortunately, that doesn't leave me alot of time to play these things. Having to spend a half hour catching one or two stupid fish for a lousy cat kind of frustrates me, because I know it will take me that much longer to get into the rest of the game.

 

I have very poor directional sense, and an overall lack of patience when it comes to these things. Sue me.

 

I finally caught my two fish and headed off into the woods after the bratty kids. Thought I would keep you in the loop! ;)

Well, since my cousin still has Warioware, the first thing I played on my replacement Wii was Zelda. I found the cave of ordeals. It is the most bastardized thing in the world.

 

 

God, some of the combinations on it, are the devil. Like 4 zombies that freeze you, and then an assload of the little Jelly things. That's where I died.

 

Also, one of the last rooms I survived through was an ice one, with two of the big bad mofos that need the ball and chain, and the 4 Ice knights.

 

I'm going to bed now, but tomorrow, it's on. I've got to beat that damn thing ><

 

Real quick, if you leave the cave from the fairy, can you come back to that same spot? Or do you have to fight through the whole thing again anyways?

Your spoiler tag didn't work... one "s" to many :p

 

If you leave the cave you have to go through all the levels again next time. Try to pick off a couple of the ice knights before you jump in, it'll help you get an edge on them, otherwise they really are a pain.

How many arrows do you have? 30? If it's 30 then you should go into Hyrule Castle Town and go to that acrobat game place with your Clawshot....

or Double Clawshot if you've got it :p

The maximum arrow capacity after both upgrades is 100 arrows.

 

Oh and lookie! TP Easter-eggs... most of which I already knew about.

 

- After defeating an enemy, press A without moving and Link will perform the cool-looking flourish move(spinning his sword before sheathing it) like he does in cutscenes. This may only work on harder enemies.

 

- On Epona, press A to get the speed boost then draw your sword, Link will hold it above his head like he’s going in to battle.

 

- When going in to a group of enemies on Epona, you can do a quick dismount, and Link will hop off with a backflip. Similarly, if you mount Epona while running from the back, Link will hop up and speed off.

 

- You can talk to Epona when you’re beast Link. She tells you to hurry up and change in to your human form.

 

- The night sky is an accurate representation of the real night sky. Stars are the correct brightness, and constellations such as Orion and Cassiopeia. The moon moves, but the stars stay still, however.

 

- Hyrule in this game is geographically the same as in Ocarina of Time. (flipped horizontally for the Wii version, as we know)

 

- The howling stone songs are all from Ocarina of Time. One of the Howling Stone songs is the Requiem of Spirit. Another one is the Song of Healing. Another is Oath to Order.

 

- Oocca are inspired by M.C. Escher’s painting “Other World”

 

- You can find a silver rupee in the Cave of Ordeals, it’s in the room with two Dark Nuts (about floor #39). Use the wolfs sense and dig for it. There is also a silver rupee in the bell in Kakariko village, you can clawshot it, or shoot it with bomb arrows, and there’s one more in a chest towards the end of the game.

 

- In Agithas castle, you can kick pill bugs. Turn on your lantern, and the bugs will be attracted to it. Also Agitha will get frustrated if you leave her castle without giving her a new bug. Agitha can also be found outside the southern entrance of Castle Town, looking for bugs in the grass.

 

- If you go back to Diababa’s lair a second time, there’s a bottomless pit of water.

 

- In the fishing hole, Hena has a picture of the fishing pond owner from Ocarina of Time. If you quickly look over at Hena after looking at the Legendary Fisherman from OOT, she will be scratching her back. If you talk to her when she scratches, she makes a comment about it. In OOT, the Fisherman always was scratching his back.

 

- You can grow pumpkins by pouring water on them, which improves the items they give. You can also pour water on certain people for a reaction. These appear to be the only use of bottled water in the game.

 

- On the way to the first dungeon, you can steal lantern oil and red potions from the bird. If you run off without paying, the bird will attack you next time and call you a thief. This is a reference to Link’s Awakening.

 

- When you open doors in a dungeon, Link opens them himself for the first time in a Zelda game. Dirt will fall off of the door the first time, but will be clean all times after that. Nice attention to detail..

 

- Ooccoo is the little bird that warps you out of dungeons. 00CC00 is the hexadecimal colour code for the green of Links tunic in the original Zelda. It’s likely a coincidence, with Ooccoo being a play on Cocoo (the chickens).

 

- Fyer (the cannon guy) has a bullet bill on his sleeve.

 

- The Ordon Shield is a one of a kind item, you can buy a replacement at Malo Mart, but it’s slightly different.

 

- There’s a rumour that if a blue chu and a yellow chu run together, they will form a green chu. Green chu’s likely existed to refil the magic meter, a feature that was eventually dropped from the game. The magic meter can still be seen in a screenshot on the back of the box.

 

- When you ask the fortune teller in Hyrule Castle town for your ‘love’ fortune, her chant is actually “Wait….loading takes a while” spelled backwards.

 

- If you go in to Castle town as a wolf, the guards will circle you, if you charge the midna attack and spin, they will get scared and drop items and rupees.

 

- In the Kakariko bomb shop there are signs that tell you not to bring in any flammable items. If you take out your lantern, the shopkeep will tell you off. If you take the lantern out upstairs, he will bang his desk and drop water on you.

 

- The postman can be found at various places in the game, but he’s quite rare. He can be seen at several locations, including Kakariki village, Zora’s Domain and even the Cave of Ordeals.

 

- Killing all Guays in certain areas will cause yellow and blue rupees to fall from the sky and trees.

 

- Links hawk can be seen flying around in any areas where there’s hawkgrass.

 

- Fire a bomb arrow in to the sky for an instant firework!”

Yeah, I found those both before the certain boss battle ;)

 

Right now I'm just running around looking for anything nifty. I just got the second bomb bag, the silver rupee in Kakariko town (or however it's spelled), and got Malos Mart in Castle Town. I've also found about 8 heart pieces in about 2 hours of play. I also found quite a few bugs.

 

You know what's weird. Playing through, I was doing the whole thing with only one thing in mind. Beating it. That's it. As such, I really missed out. Now, as I am just running around Hyrule exploring, god damn there's so many nifty things. So much hidden stuff that I never even noticed. Like the path to the silver rupee in Kakariko town. Or about 6 heart pieces.

 

And I checked a strategy guide for the cave of ordeals, and according to it I was at the 45th floor when I died ><

I usually can only pull this off after beating a really hard enemy, or by doing a special move, such as the one where you don't z target, and you sheath your sword, and then attack when they get near for the one hit kill.

 

Most of those I knew, but I didn't know about the bullet bill one. Also, what does it mean by it's Geographically the same as OoT?

 

 

EDIT: Just got the magic armor,and beat the Cave of Ordeals. I played it alot smarter this time, and thanks for the tip on the zombie things using the ball and chain

Eh? There's no magic meter on the back of the box.
