The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening: Difference between revisions

* [[Sequence Breaking]]: Although it's a far more minor example compared to the boatloads of [[Sequence Breaking]] possible in [[The Legend of Zelda a Link To The Past|the previous installment]] as well as [[The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time|the next installment]] (mostly due to the way dungeons are accessed in this installment), in Turtle Rock, there's a bombable wall on the other side of a small pool of lava. Using the bomb arrow trick allows Link to simply bomb said wall from across the lava (and thus from the opposite side of the wall from what the designers intended) and then equip the Roc's Feather and jump over the pool of lava from either side. The fact that this gives Link access to a few keys makes the dungeon much easier.

** There's also a glitch in the original black and white version which allowed the player to "warp" from his current location to the exact same location--one screen away. Not only did this allow for a lot of extra exploration, but could occasionally lead to "Glitch Rooms" that contain later items, and allowed one to clear the second dungeon without either obtaining the power bracelet or beating the boss.

** Partially [[Justified Trope|justified]] since it's {{spoiler|[[All Just a Dream]]}}.

* [[Screw This, I'm Outta Here]]: The fifth dungeon's miniboss will flee from the battle after being hurt a few times... and does this two more times after you find him again.

* [[Ship Tease]]: Link basically takes Marin on a date at one point in the game.

* [[Shoplift and Die]]: "I wasn't kidding when I said pay! Now you'll pay the ultimate price!" [[Shock and Awe|*cue the lightning* ]]

** And there is a whole ''mess'' of Super Mario shout outs. See [[The Cameo]], above.

* [[Sssssnaketalk]]: The boss of the fifth dungeon talks like this.

* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: Dethl, the final Nightmare, when it's defeated. "[[Famous Last Words|This island is going to disappear...]] [[Dream Apocalypse|Our world is going to disappear...]] Our world... Our...world..."

* [[Whale Egg]]: It's rather self-explanatory. Seriously, it's part of the plot... It IS the plot.

* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: People will call you "THIEF" instead of the name you chose for Link if you steal from the shop in Mabe Village. [[Shoplift and Die|And if you ever return to the shop...]]

** Partial solution: Name your character THIEF to begin with.
