Final Battle Hearts
The final battle may prove to be the most challenging bout in the game. For players needing an extra heart, they can look no further than Princess Zelda herself. A hook shot aimed at the princess will gain a heart for your hero. This should be used only in the most desperate times of the final battle and could make the difference between starting over and winning the game.
Bombs Inside
Unfortunately, there are many places in the game that do not allow exploding bombs. However, there is a secret to getting the bombs to go off anywhere. Setting the Tingle Tuner item for the "Y" button is the first step in the process. The next step is pressing the "Y" button and immediately pressing "Start" before physically taking out the Tingle Tuner. While in the start menu, seeing the "Y" button to a bomb and unpausing the game will place a bomb in your hands. Pressing "A" will make sure it does not explode while you are holding it.
Save Game Screen
The "Save Game" screen reflects the time of the day currently set on the GameCube console. To change the appearance of night to day, it must be changed while the console is booting up. Pressing "A" while it is booting will provide the option to change the calendar and time of the console. Going back to the game and to the "Save Game" screen will show the chosen time of day.
