There are was of getting items before you can use them like the magic cape you can easily get it by going to the point of finding it in the dark world and use the mirror and you must have the pegasus boots to obtain the cape.

You know the mysterious pond that upgrades your boomerange and sheild, it fills magic and hearts. For magic throw in an ice or fire rod, for heats, throw in the master sword.(I only tried it with the lv 2 sword)By the way if you don't know where the mysterious pond is, go to the wishin well thing where you get more bombs or arrows, you go down in the whirpool and then you go strait up into a waterfall. And if you don't know where the wishing well is then you go to Lake Hylia and swim a way. If you don't know where Lake Hylia is, I can't help you it's too easy to find.

Want to know a quick way to earn money? Of course you do ok .
Here is what you need to do you need to go to the town in the light world and the go to the portal right above the town.NOTE (you must have titans mit or hammer)youpick the rock up
Ect.the when in the dark world go back into town and go straig down look to your left there is abuilding with a ches in it go in.THIS IS THE QUICKEST WAY TO GET RUPEES.

To get the moon pearl get to the 3 dungeon on the mountain, and get the big key, when you get to the 6th floor step on a star pattern and go to the middle of the room. There should be a hole in the middle of the floor, go to the top left hand corner and drop down it to land on a platform with the big chest that you could not access from below. Inside is the moon pearl. You can now travel between the light world and the dark world and stay in your true form. A necceistty to beat the game.

Vitreous is a two step boss. That means there are two steps to beating him. At the beggining of the battle Vitreous will be at the top of the screen with small eyeballs surronding him. Hookshot off the small eyeballs and then slash them with your sword 6 times to destroy each one. The eyeballs will come out four at a time and try and destroy you. Dodge them and continue to destroy them. Vitreous eye will turn bright when he is about to shoot lightning at you. Do your best to dodge them. Once the eyes have all been defeated you can begin the second part of beating this dungeon master. All you have to do is hit the giant eye itself. It will move around quite eratically, but once you have hit it a few times it will be defeated.(arrows might be a good idea for defeating the super eye). If you are looking for the magic cape and you have not got the super gloves yet, use this cheat: go to the top right grave in the grave yard in the dark world, then transfer to the light world with the mirror and use pegasus shoes to run into the grave. Go down the steps and wala there is the cape in a small chest:) Good luck-ask me your questions if you have any, regards 100hawaiinchick

When you need more hearts filled, try hitting some trees. You have to have the pegasus shoes. Just run & hit a tree! Sometimes you will get a fairy, sometimes apples- each apple fills 1 missing heart. But also, sometimes you will get a grove of bees or jewels or other things. Good luck!

Go to the first castle and when you get the treasure of the castle get out and go to the next castle.

Then repeat untill you are at turtle rock.

Make sure you have full hearts and the pegasus boots. Use the pegasus boot to run through the boos and hit the tail (you won't get hurt when you run through the boss with the pegasus boots). After you hit the tail make sure you don't fall off the edge, so change the direction you are facing to stop yourself. Do this as many times as you can until the boss is destroyed. (and for all those who used the spining attack to defeat the boss, sorry you never found this out sooner)

To dig in several spots at one time you need: the shovel, magic bomerang, and an open area once you have all these things you throw your magic bomerang..... once it reaches it's max distance press select and equip your shovel and after you close the menu emediatly press A to dig and there will be holes dug all the way along the path the bomerang returns to you in you may have to try this a couple of times until you can do it right.

P.S. This is a good trick to use when looking for hearts and magic potions.

Hi, It's me Creepglitch again. There was something I forgot to mention about my "Frozen foes" glitch in the hint section. I used that glitch on the SNES version of "A link to the past" and perhaps it doesn't work in the GBA version. If I doesn't work on GBA, then I'm really sorry.

Ok, find an enemy, any enemy that can be frozen. Freeze the enemy with either the Ether medallion or the ice rod ( I would prefere an enemy that stalks Link ).

When he's frozen solid select the boomerang. Throw it UPWARDS. While the boomerang is away, lift up the frozen enemy. If done correctly, the enemy will take a hit from the boomerang on it's return.

This will somehow stun the enemy, and after a while he will be alive again ( he will still be blue ). After this, the enemy will be able to walk on water and phase through certain objects.

It's quite cool...hehe.
Also Link will be holding his hands in the air until he's hit

When he throws fire balls at you, hit them with your sword or bug catching net to bounce them back. Dodge his tri-attack, and make sure you get out of the way for the lighting bolt. If you just run aroumd crazily waiting for his attacks, they`re unlikely to hit you. I hope this has helped someone out there! ^^

You can actually get to the Master Sword before you have the three Pendants and the Book of Mudora but you can't pick it up and the writing is all in Hylian.

Did anyone know that there is a second sword technique. To get this sword technique you must first get at least ten medals in Four Swords. After you get the ten medals, go into the small house at the left base of the dark mountain. There will a person at the back of the room. Talk to him and he will give you a basket. He will then tell you riddles. You must figure out the riddles, then go and catch what you think the answer is with the butterfly net.

To get a free medicine of magic go to the mysterious pond in the pyramid. If you throw in an empty bottle, the fat fairy will fill it with the medicine of magic.

Use your pegasis shoes and keep on ramming him till he dies

Here the ways to get the game's four Magic Jars. The 1st one, you can buy in Kakiro Village from the man selling bottles for 100 Rupees.

The 2nd is in the longest building in Kakiro Village. You have to enter from the top where there is no fence (you enter from the back so you can't see the entrance).

For the 3rd, you need to buy Zora's Flippers from the King Zora (or something like that) at the end of the Waterfall of Wishing.

Then go swim under the right side of Hyrule Castle's bridge and pick up the bottle sitting there. To get the 4th, you need to first give the Master Sword to the Smith brothers in the light world.

Then go to where the Smith's Shop is in the Dark world. There's a locked treasure chest there. Take it with you to the Desert in the Light world.

Talk to the man who doesn't talk and he will unlock it for you and give you the last one.

A good idea is to keep 2 of them with fairies that will automatically revive you and the other 2 with a potion of magic and life.

It's very helpful, especially against Ganon.

Boss 1: shoot it with arrows but use them sparingly as they can come in great use when your stuck in the corner.

(sorry not a good one I know)

Boss 2: This is the snake boss which has 2 other buddies all look the same and will dive in and out of the sand ....

Though before you go into the boss room make sure you have a full magic bar because if you have ventured off into the world and found the "ice rod" which has the ability to kill off theese snake pests with a fell 2 swoops but be careful as it will seriously drain your magic.

If you happen to run out of magic however make sure you have your sword fully charged and ready for the swirly attack thingy by holding down the attack button so that when the ground ripples you know where to strike and you can end the battle and get the 2nd pendant.

( a bit more detailed , but I had to find it out the hard way) 2 hours and a set of batteries on this dude :(

Boss 3 : by far the most annoying because you cant attack it with arrows or bombs or the ice rod which can make this boss extremely agitating.

In the form of a worm thingy this blighter will try hard to knock you off of the edge of the arena and to take out your health and because it has no particular pattern to follow it can cause signifigant hair loss ok then lets crack on with it then:

1st make sure that you dont fall off of the arena as it will send you plumbeting down a seemingly endless pit and you will have to get up and go find him again.

2nd make sure that when your in there you have a full bar of health . but if not try not to get hit by him .

3rd: make sure your sword is allways charged up and ready to strike because it is random it can get a bit awkward and you may ahve to defend your self rather sharpish.

Continue to do this and you will either have killed it off and gotten the pendant or gone bald due to tension and stress.

Happy gaming !!!

To beat boss 3 in the tower of hera slash his tail.

It's not easy though beacause it wiggles all over the place.
