link directly to this cheat Extra Arrows/Bombs

Okay, if you have the flippers, load your game and start from your house. GO south one screen and then head right. Jump in the lake and swim until you get to the island which has the stones in the water in front of it. Go in and throw 100 rupies in the water. A farie will come up and ask which you want more of, Arrows or bombs. Just choose one and throw 100 more. Just repeat until the farie says your are maxed on bombs and arrows and she can do no more for you. By the way, there are about 4 extra faeries in the room to the right if you feel like putting them in bottles.

link directly to this cheat Ganon glitch

This Glitch is totally useless, but it is wierd nonetheless. After defeating Gannon, instead of going to the room with the triforce, fall of the edge of the floor. You'll now be in a room where Sahasrala tells you to use the silver arrow on Gannon. When you go back to where Gannon was killed, he'll be fully alive again, and you'll have to beat him a second time

link directly to this cheat Get the magic cape without titan's mitt.

You can get the magic cape without the titan's mitt. It's as simple as cutting down a bush near that fence where there's that big tomb in Light World, stepping inside the fence and using the mirror. You'll be right next to the tomb, just ram it, step inside, grab the cape, walk out, teleport back and that's it.

link directly to this cheat Reach the Dark World Early!

1)Get to the first portal in the game and enter it.
2)Drop down the ledge.
3)Walk to the dead end.
4)Now here's the thing. Use the mirror to teleport to the Light World.
5)While in here, your task is to move slightly closer to the bridge so that you're not touching the left edge of the teleportation "X".
6)If you do it correctly, you'll teleport back to the Dark World but you won't be sent back. You're actually a tad closer to the edge. Don't move or you'll have to do it all over again.
7)From here, teleport back to the Light World. Now, move as far as you can to the right so that you're still on the teleportation "X". (When I first did this trick, Link's butt was the only thing on the teleportation "X" and he still got teleported)
8)If you did it correctly, you'll appear right on top of the edge and you won't be teleported back. Simply jump over the edge to the lava.
9)From here, you'll have to be careful where you walk. If you try to change the screen from the wrong place, either one of these will occur:

1)You'll be stuck in a waterfall
2)You'll activate the loop-scrolling bug.

Otherwise, you can jump down the waterfall and begin adventuring around.
